Synopsis: Who Do You Love tells the story of Leonard and Phil Chess, the legendary founders of Chess Records. They were Polish immigrants living in Chicago who become enamored with the new blues sound emanating from the city in the mid-1940s. Leonard Chess and his brother Phil opened a club called Macomba and gambled on producing “race records” with the help of bass player and songwriter Willie Dixon. After initial failure, the brothers found tremendous success with the iconic bluesman Muddy Waters, and on the strength of his popularity, they started Chess Records which quickly grew into an influential label, launching the careers of Waters, Bo Diddley, Etta James, and Chuck Berry among others.
