In 1959, Berry Gordy Jr. gathered the best musicians from Detroit's thriving jazz and blues scene to begin cutting songs for his new record company. Over a fourteen year period they were the heartbeat on every hit from Motown's Detroit era. By the end of their phenomenal run, this unheralded group of musicians had played on more number ones hits than the Beach Boys, the Rolling Stones, Elvis and the Beatles combined - which makes them the greatest hit machine in the history of popular music. They called themselves the Funk Brothers. Forty-one years after they played their first note on a Motown record and three decades since they were all together, the Funk Brothers reunited back in Detroit to play their music and tell their unforgettable story, with the help of archival footage, still photos, narration, interviews, re-creation scenes, 20 Motown master tracks, and twelve new live performances of Motown classics with the Brothers backing up contemporary performers.

Бывший рокер, а ныне преуспевающий поп-продюсер Лен Блэк психанул на церемонии вручения очередных наград и свалил в свой загородный дом в штате Нью-Йорк отмокать в грязном бассейне, смотреть древние британские сериалы и слушать аудиокниги про ковбоев.

Макс приехал, чтобы испросить у папаши профессионального совета на предмет демозаписи своей группы, а Зоуи не терпится выяснить причину внезапного бегства Лена. Оба волей-неволей принуждают скатившегося с проторенной дорожки героя более серьезно отнестись не только к отцовским обязанностям, но и к взрослой жизни вообще.

In the mid-1990s reports emerged that Prince had fallen into dispute with his record company. Having signed what was ostensibly a new, 100 million dollar contract just a couple of years before, Prince was now demanding - not unreasonably to most commentators - control of his masters and the freedom to release what he wanted when he wanted. After a bitter war of words, during which the star scrawled Slave across his cheek whenever he appeared in public and routinely dissed his label, the parties finally settled and Prince henceforth was free to take full control of his music and the way it was sold to consumers. Prince approached this task with devastating foresight as he routinely created new marketing concepts which, with time, became the norm across the music world.
