Motown Records

Anyone who has ever seen the documentary 'Standing in the shadows of Motown' knows that there is actually only one band responsible for almost all of Motown Records' hits. When they quit after fourteen years of Motown Records, The Funk Brothers had more number one hits to their name as the Beach Boys, The Rolling Stones, Elvis Presley and The Beatles combined. This made The Funk Brothers the biggest hit machine in the history of music. To this day, they retain that title. Unfortunately, the band members never got the recognition they deserved. Since these hits still regularly pass by on the live circuit, it is always useful for the pop trumpeter to know these songs and have them in their repertoire.
