Eddy Cue already said it when he introduced Apple Music. This new music streaming service would not be dedicated solely to offering music over the Internet, since the guys from Cupertino wanted to add audiovisual content as an extra for all music lovers. In recent months we have already talked about the program that the presenter of Carpool Karaoke and the reality show The Planet Of The Apps will present, a program that the recording ended last January but it does not yet have an expected date of issue. The latest news related to the audiovisual content of Apple Music is found in the documenta on the life of Clive Davis.
As we can read on Billboard, Apple has bought the rights to the documentary film Clive Davis: The Soundtrack of Our Lives, a documentary that shows us the life of the producer in the music industry. This documentary will be shown at the Tribeca Festival and later at the legendary Radio City Music Hall in New York.
This documentary film has been directed by Chris Perkel and is based on the autobiography of Clive Davis published in 2013. Clive was president of Columbia Records between 1967 and 1975. Later he founded Artista Records, of which he was president until 2000.
Shortly after he founded J Records and became CEO of RCA Music Group. Far from being retired, Clive currently works for Sony as chief creative officer. Throughout his career Clive has greatly influenced the careers of Whitney Houston, Barry Manilow, Aretha Franklin, Alicia Keys, Aerosmith, Bruce Springsteen and many more.
At the moment Apple has not announced when it will be possible to enjoy this documentary through Apple Music, but presumably, those responsible for the project will first want to commercially exploit it through all possible channels, before offering it for free to all Apple Music subscribers, subscribers who according to the latest figures exceed 20 million.
