Soul Power

[kndy]

Can someone who owns the MoC version please tell me if "Soul Power" comes with the 36-page booklet or is that only for the DVD.

It appears the MoC version has more content than the Sony Pictures Classics US Blu-ray release.

Yes, the blu-ray has the booklet. MOC isn't gonna skimp on something like that if they can help it.

depends...
says that the Sony disc comes with 9 deleted scenes, trailer, and a commentary.
the Masters of Cinema comes with 5 deleted scenes, 5 extended performances, trailer, a 6 minute interview

The review on this site doesnt state exactly what the 9 deleted scenes are though, so tough to speculate if they are including music performances in there or not....

And what is up with the sony disc having Spanish and Portugese dub tracks?
This is a documentary! Why the hell would you wanna hear James Brown in Portugese? **** dubs, really. Waste of space.

OK, here is what I can tell about the US release.

The extended performances listed on the MoC releases are part of the deleted scenes on the US version. The US version doesn't have an interview at all and of course, won't have a booklet like MoC.

I don't know which are the music performances are featured on the MoC version to do a comparison.
