The feature-length documentary chronicles Alan’s life from his upbringing in Georgia in the 1950s and ’60s to his Hall of Fame induction in 2017. The film is primarily narrated by Alan and includes interviews with family members, musical colleagues and country stars, including Carrie Underwood. Written, produced and directed by John Albarian, the film showcases the inspirations that led Alan to write hits such as “Chasin’ That Neon Rainbow,” “Chattahoochee,” “Here in the Real World,” “Livin’ on Love,” and “Where Were You (When the World Stopped Turning).”

In this one-hour special, Alan and Denise Jackson share stories and memories of Christmas holidays spent with their family. Jackson also takes the stage at the Grand Ole Opry House in Nashville for a special concert of songs from his latest Arista album, Let It Be Christmas, with some help from Denise and their three daughters. Backed up by Nashville's Belmont University Choir and W.O. Smith Children's Choir, Jackson performs holiday classics including "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas," "Winter Wonderland," "Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town," "The Christmas Song," "Silent Night," "Jingle Bells," "O' Come All Ye Faithful" and "Away in a Manger." He also performs a new self-penned song, "Let It Be Christmas."
