1970s music industry-based drama starring Harvey Keitel as a music company A&R man trying to break new young act The Group (played by Earth, Wind & Fire). Keitel plays an ambitious young music producer, Buckmaster, ('the man with the golden ear'), whose job is to seek out new talent & produce hit records. Unfortunately, Buckmaster is surrounded by desperate shallow-minded record executives with a quick buck mentality & little ability to recognize true talent. Whilst in the middle of recording an inspirational album with The Group, Buckmaster is forced to divert & concentrate all his efforts on a talentless trio called The Pages. The pressures & corruption of the recording industry begin to weigh him down, & ultimately force him to make crucial decisions about the success of The Pages & The Group. Ironically, the soundtrack of this film about the untrustworthy & corrupt record industry was what launched Earth Wind & Fire into stardom. ...
