Description:

Based on the story of Leonard Chess, the co-founder of the legendary Chess Records label, CADILLAC RECORDS is a film that chronicles the rise of one of America`s great recording institutions. Throughout the 1950s and `60s, Chess was the premiere label for blues and R&B, putting out music by such iconic talents as Howlin`Wolf, Muddy Waters, Chuck Berry, and Bo Diddley. The soundtrack features contemporary R&B and hip-hop stars Beyonce, Mos Def, Jeffrey Wright, Raphael Saadiq, and others (who also appear as actors in the film), covering well known tunes including "I`m a Man" and "No Particular Place to Go," made famous by the original Chess artists.
