Maceo - My First Name is Maceo auf DVD ausleihen

This is a rare kind of music film. A portrait of a musican who made his name first as a sideman than as a star. The classic recordings of James Brown are frequently punctuated with a cry of "Maceo" which listeners often assumed to be some fucky catchphrase of Browns own invention. In fact it was the cue for his long serving sax man Maceo Parker to step forward and blow his horn. When Brown was incarcerated in the late 80 s necessitly led Maceo to become a bandleader in his own right, enlisting other funk pioneers such as trombonist Fred Wesley, and tenor saxophonist Pee Wee Ellis. In 1994 Maceo and his band were filmed in concert, in rehearsal and on the road. Though essentially a performance film, "My First Name is Maceo" captures both on and off stage, the warm generous personality that flows through Maceo is music. Interviews with Maceo, his brother Melvin and the musicians who have worked with him fill in the background that began on a North Carolina Housing Project.
