Bandets betydning blir beskrevet i Paul Justmans dokumentarfilm Standing in the Shadows of Motown, basert på Allan Slutskys bok med samme navn. I begynnelsen av filmen blir det slått fast at The Funk Brothers «har spilt på flere listetopper enn The Beatles, Elvis Presley, The Rolling Stones og The Beach Boys til sammen»

Navnet «The Funk Brothers» blei ikke brukt om ett avgrensa ensemble. Selv om National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences anerkjenner 13 musikere som offisielle «funkbrødre», blir navnet ofte brukt som en samlebetegnelse for en hvilken som helst musiker som har spilt for Motown.

Lista er basert på Allan Slutskys utgreiinger, med noen få endringer.
