Standing in the Shadows of Motown
In 1959, Berry Gordy Jr. gathered the very best artists from Detroit's thriving jazz as well as blues scene to start cutting tracks for his brand-new document firm. Over a fourteen year period they were the heart beat on every hit from Motown's Detroit period. By the end of their sensational run, this unheralded group of musicians had actually used even more top hits than the Coastline Boys, the Rolling Stones, Elvis as well as the Beatles incorporated - that makes them the greatest hit device in the background of popular music. They called themselves the Funk Brothers. Forty-one years after they played their first note on a Motown record and three years considering that they were completely, the Funk Brothers reunited back in Detroit to play their songs as well as inform their memorable story, with the help of archival footage, still photos, narration, meetings, re-creation scenes, 20 Motown master tracks, and also twelve brand-new live performances of Motown classics with the Brothers backing up contemporary performers.
