Standing in the shadows of Motown
is the documentary that finally paid attantion
2 the band that created the Motown sound.
If U have seen this briliant documentary I can highly
recomend U 2 go & see these cats live if U get a chance.
I saw them live in Stockholm this sunday.
The place was sold out the show was absolutly mindblowing.
There was no such thing as a tired "Las Vegas" act.
The Funk Brothers provided this incredible energy
on stage that left the audience screaming & dancing
like crazy 2 stuff like "I was made to love her",
"It´s a shame","Ain´t no mountain high enough"
& lot´s of other classics.
It was awsome seeing Billy Preston screaming his heart off
behind his old B3 Hammond Organ.
This night they were also inducted into Rock´n Roll
hall of fame.They made the anouncement from the stage.
The Funk Brother´s introduced the world 2 soul music
& make sure U get 2 see them cuz there´s no other
band like this left.
