The surviving members of Motown’s legendary house band, guitarist Eddie Willis, bassist Bob Babbitt and
drummer Uriel Jones perform a set of the greatest classic Motown songs, on which they provided
instrumentation. In front of a wildly enthusiastic New Year’s Eve crowd in Orlando, songs made famous by
the likes of Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder and The Supremes are performed with the same zeal as they were
when they were first recorded 40 years ago.
As an added bonus, the DVD contains interviews with 3 of the surviving members of The Funk Brothers:
Eddie Willis, Bob Babbitt & Uriel Jones.

The legendary session musicians known as the Funk Brothers have long been considered Motown's best kept secret. Though their names were never officially in lights, as the label's "house band" the players provided the backing tracks for a long list of hits including "Signed, Sealed, Delivered," "Dancing in the Street," and "Heatwave." LIVE IN ORLANDO puts these seasoned pros front and center, playing the songs that they helped make famous.
