Stax were left with the problem of how to feature some their best seling stars in the film even though they didn't make the concert. The Emotions sang in a neighbourhood church, Little Milton was filmed on rail road tracks in the LA area, Luther Ingram had some concert footage spliced into the film and Johnnie's gig at the LA Summit nightclub was filmed. The sequence of Johnnie is now avaible on You Tube and strangely ended up being on of the iconic moments of the film - a master at work alongside some wonderful footage of some "brothers" and their ladies arriving for the gig!
