Standing the in Shadows of Motown

I know this isn't the right place for this topic but I just wanted to tell everyone about a new film coming out called, "Standing in the Shadows of Motown." It's a documentary on the Funk Brothers, they were the studio band that played the music on almost all of the Motown hits. I had the opportunity to see a special screening of the film and its kicked a**. The remaining Funk Brothers reunited after 30 years to put on a concert. Gerald Levert, Joan Osbourne, and Meshell N'degeocello perform as well as Bootsy Collins and Chaka Khan. They cover several Motown classics. It will make you laugh, it will make you cry, it will have you singing along. It's definitely worth checking out.

P.S. The soundtrack is slamming!
