Title: Disappointed First Time Buyer of the Funk Brothers
Review: After seeing the show (Standing in the Shadows of Motown) on television here in Australia and realising how little I knew of the Funk Brothers I bought the DVD of the show immediately. I also bought some CD's and this collection (the Millennium Collection) does not represent them well (in my very humble opinion). Great musicians they may well be but the songs are lifeless without lyrics. That some of the tunes are listed on the cover as Instrumental lends lie to the fact that they are all (with the exception of a couple of the songs that have some minimum vocal inclusion) instrumental.This is NOT a CD I would recommend to anyone buying the Funk Brothers for the first time unless it was someone who loved groovy organ playing (and I do NOT!). As for the collection that features renowned artists singing the songs; go for it. The DVD is still well worth getting but this CD can stay on the rack.
