Getz's last, peerless concert recording, presented on this disc, was captured live in 1990, one year before his death.

Canadian concert pianist Glenn Gould enjoys a respite at his lakeside cottage.

FOR DECADES HIP-HOP HAS BEEN CONTROLLED BY THE RECORD COMPANIES. THEY INVEST MILLIONS AND PROFIT BILLIONS FROM GLOBAL CASSETTE, CD, AND NOW RINGTONE SALES. MUSIC MOGULS AFFORD A LIFESTYLE COMPARABLE TO WHAT WE SEE ON MTV CRIBS. EVENTUALLY HIP-HOP ARTISTS WOULD ADAPT THE RECORD COMPANY FORMULA, AND START TO STRATEGICALLY PROMOTE AND MARKET THEIR OWN MUSIC. THIS HAS CREATED A CONFLICT INSIDE THE INDUSTRY. THE RECORD COMPANIES, IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE RECORDING INDUSTRY ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA (RIAA), HAVE DECLARED WAR. OFFICES HAVE BEEN RAIDED, MOM AND POP STORES HAVE BEEN CLOSED AND MANY HAVE BEEN ARRESTED. HIP-HOP ARTISTS, DJS, AND PRODUCERS HAVE DECIDED THAT THE ONLY WAY TO SURVIVE IN THE MUSIC BUSINESS IS TO "KILL THE RECORD LABELS".

Babe Ruth set a record in 1927 by hitting 60 home runs in one season. 34 years later, Roger Maris broke that record. Another 37 years passed before that record was broken by Mark McGwire.

Relive it all, from Ruth, to Maris, to the final days of the 1998 Sosa/McGwire slug-fest.

This film captures a moment in time when vinyl recordings saw a resurgence that no one in the music industry could have predicted. Whether the popularity of vinyl will endure beyond various advances in the digital fidelity of sound recordings is anyone's guess. This film is a documentary in the sense that it documents this phenomenon through interviews with musicians and record shop owners. This film does not have a plot. It captures a moment in time when vinyl was king.

Sequel to "The Woodmen". Plot is kept under wraps.

The dark recording of a heliography revolves around the annihilation of the essence of being human, as people are forced to compromise on an increasing number of issues.
