All hail The Funk Brothers! Motown's in-house backing troupe who have famously played on more hits that the Beatles, Elvis and The Stones put together. From iconic legends to lesser known film scores, some of the funkiest jams to ever come the Detroit HQ were laid down by this incredible crew. This Record Store Day special is a perfect snapshot of their breadth... From sultry swooning soul of Barbara McNair's "The Hunter Gets Captured By The Game" to the sweaty frenetic groove of Gordon Staples' "Strung Out" by way of theatrics of The Undisputed Truth's "Ball Of Confusion" to the sly psychedelic funk licks of The Magic Disco Machine's "Scratchin'", The Funk Brothers genuinely did give the world some of the funkiest grooves ever recorded. Grab this while you can.
