Davis Guggenheim gives audiences a front row seat to a rock summit of three generations of awesome guitar musicians, represented by Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page, U2's The Edge, and the White Stripes' Jack White.
Before the highly anticipated meeting, this electric documentary traces each man's musical roots and the fateful paths they traveled to forge their own distinct sounds. Their struggles are fascinating, a sacrosanct glimpse into the history of the electric guitar. The hardcore passion, dedication, and unbridled glee the artists exude for their craft is undeniable as they share riffs, inspirations, and trade secrets with each other. The energy of the philosophical mash up of soul, blues, electric, and folk buzzes and builds to a to-die-for backstage crescendo.
Humbly extolling the mysteries of life's winding road that led them to discover their talent, these icons pontificate whether they found the music or the music found them. Whichever the case may be, legions of music fans the world over have benefited from their momentous journeys.
With special guest attendees Jimmy Page and Jack White
