Jamey Reilly of Jamey’s House of Music and Andrea DiFabio of Vinyl Revival have teamed up to present Movie Night!
Join us at Jamey’s on Thursday, May 29th, for a screening of “Standing in the Shadows of Motown.”
This documentary mixes performances, interviews, and reenactments to celebrate the Funk Brothers, the 1960s soul hitmakers. As the musicians behind the Temptations, the Four Tops and others, the “brothers” were hugely successful, yet relatively anonymous compared to the famous singers they backed. They get their due here, as Richard “Pistol” Allen, Benny “Papa Zita” Benjamin, and bandmates discuss their Detroit youth, studio sessions alongside Marvin Gaye, and nonstop touring.
Emmy Award winning composer and filmmaker Rodney Whittenberg and Producer Allan Slutsky will be in attendance for a Q & A after the film.
Kitchen and Happy Hour- 6 p.m., Showtime – 7 p.m.
$5 online advance / door
Online advance ticket sales close at 5 p.m. day of show.
