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.

Up until Henry Ford created the Model T, the only choice for personal transportation was a horse. Then Mr. Ford created his machine that would change the world. But, compared to other cars of the time, the T was a piece of junk. The T was a type writer to the Bentley laptops of the time. Crude, bare, uncomfortable. But, it was cheap, and better than a horse. A cheap car is better than no car, and to prove this point, we take 2 cheap cars and one Ford Model T across 819 miles of dusty, rocky, steep, ruthless Utah desert. No amount of rocks, scrapes, crashes, leaked fluids or lost wires will stand in our way. We think.
