Featuring music legends like
Marvin Gaye,
the Commodores, and
Stevie Wonder,
Motown Funk shows off the motor city label's funky side with a two-disc collection of funk jams. Though the label is perhaps best known for its contributions to R&B, Motown was no slouch when it came to funk, and with hot tracks like "Papa Was a Rolling Stone," "Brick House," and 30 more,
Motown Funk is a nice, guided tour through that era that covers a lot of ground without feeling overwhelming. ~ Gregory Heaney
