Charles Bradley - The Soul Of America

If you are a fan, you will enjoy this movie. Its an emotional journey. you may cry

This is a great story about an amazing guy who has more than paid his dues. Charles has persevered through many trials. If you think that Charles is just another rich musician living the highlife, think again. He has worked his whole life to have an opportunity to release his albums, the first of which was recorded when he was 63 years old. Its never too late to do what you love. The next time you think of giving up on your dream, pop in this DVD.

This film lays bare the soul of an angelic man with an angelic voice. Charles Bradley continues to touch the hearts of those of us on earth from his home in heaven.

I have been listening to Charles Bradley for a couple years now and absolutely love his records. But my appreciation for this man's music ability and will to survive has exponentially grown after seeing this documentary. An inspiring story based around modern soul classics that anyone (not just music geeks like myself) will enjoy watching. Buy or rent this movie it will not disappoint... I bet you have "The World (Is Going Up In Flames)" stuck in your head after seeing this film ; )

I recently heard of him and was dismayed to hear he had passed away. A nice inciteful movie intonhis life that features his wonderful music.

Charles Bradley, if he is who he says he is, is an great example of Christian manhood. He's loving, humble, kind, honest, and he loves his momma, too! Plus, I haven't heard fresh soul music like his in a long time; much love to his band, as well! Very glad I watched it...may have cried a little bit, too! If you see it, watch all the way through credits...;)

An inspiring and heartwarming story that illustrates the power of perseverance: Charles Bradley never quit; he finally succeeded after 40 years of diligence. Furthermore few deserve this success more as Bradley seems like a humble guy with a great heart. If this doesn't motivate you to never give up even when success takes forever, what will?

Nice to see some folks still believe and will not quit no matter what happens. A must see film, The American dream is alive and well....

This is a really really great documentary but this DVD version is a Netherlands import so English audio with Dutch (or French) subtitles, which for some reason you CANNOT switch off in the menu settings. It's a bit of a distraction especially when you don't need them but hey a learnt some Dutch whilst getting my groove on.

Gem of a doc

Amazing story
