Yes there are - consider the live track "You Name It" [[that's how it's listed, I know it sounds like "Heartbreak) on Disc 1 of the EVD set, from the same show as "Don't Mess With Bill" on the SITSOM soundtrack deluxe edition. That's from one show where they opened for Motown headliners, and then backed them for their sets. There are reels of other live shows tethered to the main act, where the opening sets with the EVD band were recorded as well, like "Heartbreak" before the Jr. Walker set.
But - those EVD/Funks sets are generally three-to-four songs brief, contain covers to please the small crowd and are not necessarily being listened to by said crowd there to see the headliner. There are gems, but few.
The EARL OF FUNK album was a document of an actual EVD/Funks show where they were the main act, and that's the only one in the vault.
