They All Came Out to Montreux

They All Came Out to Montreux

This is the extraordinary story of the world-famous Montreux Jazz Festival and its beloved founder, Claude Nobs. With practically no knowledge of the music industry, Nobs turned a sleepy town near Lake Genevea into a mecca for the greatest recording artists of all time. Featuring Aretha Franklin, Nina Simone, David Bowie, Miles Davis, Prince...the list goes on, and they all came out to Montreux.
