Nostalgia can be as onerous as it is seductive. The remembrances of things past often sacrifices hard truths for emotional reassurance. While this filmed love letter to '60s soul by producer Roger Friedman, legendary documentary filmmakers D.A. Pennebaker and Chris Hegedus (Dylan's Don't Look Back and Monterrey Pop) sometimes glosses over the hardscrabble roots (and sometimes fate) of its subjects, it's hard not to like a soundtrack that simply showcases the likes of Wilson Pickett, Ann Peebles, and Jerry Butler onstage. If Wilson Pickett's maniacal energy has mellowed somewhat with age, the passing years have only refined Jerry Butler's magic voice (showcased here on his hits "Your Precious Love" and "Only the Strong Survive") like a Stradivarius. But there's some justice to be found here as well. The undersung Ann Peebles gets her due on a strong performance of "Breaking Up Somebody's Home," while original Supreme Mary Wilson rewrites some difficult history with a take on "Someday We'll Be Together," a Supremes session from which she she was originally excluded. And the project's devotion to sweet soul music is almost religious, the fervor Rufus and Carla Thomas bring to their "Nightime is the Right Time" is as good as gospel. --Jerry McCulley
