A magnificent documentary on a fabled time and place in American musical history, an open city with a wild and woolly nightlife of booze, gambling and prostitution, supported by the mayor who took his city and said to hell with prohibition, let`s party. This musical documentary chronicles the Kansas City blues and jazz scene, and includes interviews and archival footage of many of the greats, notably, the big-band sound of Count Basie and his Orchestra, Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie and his Quintet, and Ernie Williams -- who called himself the Last of the Blue Devils.
