A reverent and respectful look at the life and the genius of record producer Tom Dowd, who revolutionized the recording industry in the '50s and on into the beginning of the 21st century as well. Tom's legendary work with such artists as Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, John Coltrane, Booker T. and the MGs, Bobby Darin, Eric Clapton, Derek and the Dominos, and the Allman Brothers Band (to name a small few) is captured here in a loving tribute by filmmaker Mark Moormann. Interviews with the Eric Clapton, Gregg Allman, Ray Charles, Phil Ramone, Dickey Betts, and others show the immense talent and the love that Tom shared with those he worked with. A stellar look at a genius at work.
