Big Hits! Allee Willis Conducts The Mumford High School Marching Band

Mumford graduate, Allee Willis, whose songs have sold over 50,000,000 copies, conducts her high school marching band through a medley of some of her greatest hits with the cast of her Tony nominated musical, The Color Purple, singing along. Songs include "September", "Boogie Wonderland", "I'll Be There for You (Theme from Friends)"", "Neutron Dance", "Stir It Up", "In The Stone", and "The Color Purple". Mumford High School became famous in the movie, Beverly Hills Cop, when Eddie Murphy wore a Mumford Phys Ed T-shirt throughout the film. Willis received a Grammy for Best Soundtrack for Beverly Hills Cop. The performance took place at the historic Fox Theater in Detroit on April 9, 2011.
