If it hadn₂t been for a bottle of scotch and a late-night visit from musician Gregg Allman, Jimmy Carter might never have been elected the 39th President of the United States. This documentary charts the mostly forgotten story of how Carter, a lover of all types of music, forged a tight bond with musicians Willie Nelson, the Allman Brothers, Bob Dylan and others.
DVD, wide screen.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Excellent submitted by 21621032124198 on May 7, 2021, 10:55pm I was unfamiliar with much of the musical connections within Carter's political career. This was a very interesting history. It was lovely to hear from Carter himself and to learn more about his unusual upbringing and view of the world.
Interesting that Carter was a main character in 2 movies in the last 2 years, "Desert One" (excellent documentary) in 2019 and "Jimmy Carter: Rock and Roll President" in 2020.
