Standing in the Shadows of Motown
In 1959, Berry Gordy Jr. gathered the best artists from Detroit's flourishing jazz as well as blues scene to begin cutting songs for his brand-new document company. Over a fourteen year duration they were the heart beat on every hit from Motown's Detroit age. By the end of their extraordinary run, this unheralded group of artists had actually played on even more number ones strikes than the Beach Boys, the Rolling Stones, Elvis and also the Beatles incorporated - that makes them the greatest hit maker in the history of music. They called themselves the Funk Brothers. Forty-one years after they played their first note on a Motown record and 3 decades considering that they were completely, the Funk Brothers rejoined back in Detroit to play their music and also inform their extraordinary tale, with the help of archival footage, still photos, narrative, meetings, re-creation scenes, 20 Motown master tracks, and twelve new live efficiencies of Motown standards with the Brothers supporting contemporary performers.
