I was fortunate enough to see an early screening of this film at Streatham Free Film festival, which was the perfect setting as several band members hail from south London (Balham and Catford I believe).
It's really well produced. Although there are underlying political themes about racism in the UK, particularly how the music industry turned a blind eye to black talent in the 70s, the overall tone is a huge celebration of the intensely powerful music that these guys produced that's been sampled well over a hundred times by huge artists over the past fifty years.
If you haven't heard of them before, go look them up, share their music, and keep the legacy alive.
