Aretha Franklin's Until You Come Back To Me, the Bee Gees' Jive Talkin', Norah Jones' Don't Know Why, Chaka Khan's I Feel For You, Bette Midler's Wind Beneath My Wings... This is just a handful of the legendary artists and iconic hit recordings produced by 12 time Grammy Award winning producer, arranger and composer, Arif Mardin. The Greatest Ears in Town: The Arif Mardin Story chronicles Arif Mardin who produced more than 50 gold and platinum records with sales topping 50 million units. Supported with a treasure trove of archival footage, photos and music as well as in-depth interviews with music luminaries and friends Quincy Jones, Ahmet Ertegun and Sir George Martin, the film also shows Arif reuniting with many of the aforementioned artists as well as interviews and/or studio footage with Willie Nelson, Carly Simon, Jewel, Darryl Hall and many others to record what would become his final album, "All My Friends Are Here". The Greatest Ears in Town is named after the song performed and co-written by Bette Midler for her producer and friend in which she proclaims, "Mister Mardin make your music 'cause your music makes my day!"
