You missed my 4 favorites. I saw these through Netflix's DVD mail rental setup. Last check, they were still available.
Look up "Tom Dowd & The Language of Music". He was the primary engineer and producer for Atlantic Records starting in the '50s, going from Charlie Parker, The Coasters, Cream, Ray Charles, Allman Bros, and so many more. He did the freakin' "Layla" sessions for crying out loud. http://www.imdb.com/video/screenplay/vi2751332633
Plus, he was involved in "The Manhattan Project" (the bomb, not the band) as a nuclear physicist.
Also, along the same lines, "The Atlantic Records Story-The House That Ahmet Built"

And, about another independent label that did OK, "Standing in the Shadows of Motown", about The Funk Brothers, the main house band on all of the early Detroit based Motown tunes. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0314725/?ref_=nv_sr_1
"Respect Yourself: The Stax Records Story" is fascinating, with Booker T & the MG's as the house band, Otis Redding, Irma Thomas, and The Staple Singers as artists. It's about the rise and fall of an incredible group, in a moment in time. https://www.amazon.com/Respect-Yourself-Stax-Records-Story/dp/B000UD2K32
