A cast including Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Aretha Franklin, Bono, Alicia Keys and Gregg Allman is ready to enter your living room – well, if you have a TV that gets PBS.

Acclaimed documentary film "Muscle Shoals" will receive its Public Broadcasting System premiere 8 p.m. April 21 on the Stanley Tucci-hosted program "Independent Lens."

The 111-minute film boasts compelling interviews with Jagger and other stars talking about the landmark sides tracked at Muscle Shoals recording studios FAME and Muscle Shoals Sound. But the "Muscle Shoals" story centers around the scrappy arc of FAME Studios owner and producer Rick Hall and The Swampers, the soulful rhythm section that cut many classic sides at FAME before departing to start their own facility, Muscle Shoals Sound, much to Hall's chagrin.

Songs cut at FAME and Muscle Shoals Sound Studio include The Rolling Stones' "Brown Sugar," Etta James' "Tell Mama." Jimmy Cliff's "Sitting in Limbo," Paul Simon's "Kodachrome," Percy Sledge's "When a Man Loves a Woman" and Aretha Franklin's "I Never Loved a Man (The Way I Love You)."

Helmed by first-time director Greg "Freddy" Camalier, the film premiered at the 2013 Sundance Film Festival and last March won a Hot Docs Audience Award at the South By Southwest conference, where Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban's Magnolia Films acquired distribution rights to "Muscle Shoals." The film saw a limited theatrical release in October beginning in New York and Chicago. "Muscle Shoals" also notched a Grammy nomination for Best Compilation Soundtrack for Visual Media.

Production for "Muscle Shoals" began in 2009. At

"In order to have five minutes of usable footage, they filmed me for like three years."

Camalier, a Boulder, Colo. commercial real estate agent by trade, got the idea for the documentary in 2008 while helping a friend with a cross-country move in which they took back-roads through the South. One night on their 1,800-mile trek, the duo was driving through Alabama when they noticed a road sign indicating they were 40 miles past Muscle Shoals. They turned around on a whim because, "We knew some of our favorite music that we'd loved all our life was made there," Camalier said during our 2013 phone interview.

So how did a rookie director bag sit-downs with some of music's biggest, bold-faced names?

"One of things we had going for us was the story itself," Camalier said, "which is a huge American music roots story, and musicians know about this story. And a lot of those guys are very willing and sort of honored to shed light into that, and that musicians that came before that - especially musicians who never had their day in the sun.

"So they sort of came out in the service of the story of Muscle Shoals, which needed to be told."
