It All Begins with a Song: The Story of the Nashville Songwriter (2019)

01/31/2019 (EN) • Documentary, Music • 1h 20m

Overview

Everyone knows Elvis Presley’s In the Ghetto and A Little Less Conversation. But who wrote those songs? That was Mac Davis, and almost no one has heard of him. He shares this fate with dozens of other songwriters who have been responsible for massive hits. Coincidentally, many of them live in Nashville, Tennessee – though this documentary reveals that isn’t quite as accidental as it seems.
