Turn It Up guitar documentary

Few days ago I noticed the website for this guitar documentary, Turn It Up. It caught my attention immediately.

Well, just check out the talent lineup. To mention few of them: B.B. King, Slash, Albert Lee, John 5, Les Paul, Steve Lukather, Jerry Cantrell, Carl Verheyen, Johnny A. The documentary is hosted by Kevin Bacon and apparently intends to walk us through different angles of guitar history.

The official description from their site reads:

"Turn it Up! is the STORY of the electric guitar, from the invention in the 1930s to its golden years, right through the phenomenon of the Guitar Hero video-game and the digital guitars of the future. But, it’s also a series of guitar STORIES, where we’ll meet all kinds of people from rock stars, to congressmen, CEOs, and teenage virtuosos, to try to understand their emotional connection to their guitars."

This is the official site: http://loudandlouder.com/

And here is a video from one of the featured guitar players, Ana Popovic:
