Directed by John McDermott, the film focuses on the rise of the studio from the remnants of a bankrupt Manhattan nightclub, inspired by Hendrix's yearning for a permanent recording space. The documentary features previously unseen footage and photos, as well as track breakdowns from recording engineer Eddie Kramer. Interviews with experience bassist Billy Cox, original Electric Lady staff members, and Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Steve Winwood, who participated in Hendrix's first session at the studio, are also included.
