Say what you want about Detroit but you can never take away the fact that some pretty kick ass rock bands come from there and it is after all, Motown. Here's some for starters: Alice Cooper * Ted Nugent (close enough) * Eminem * Kid Rock * Aretha Franklin * White Stripes * Aaliyah * The Temptations * MC5 *Bob Seger * Suzi quatro * Madonna * George Clinton * The Romantics * Porcelain and the Tramps *Sonny Bono * Rare Earth * Chairmen of the Board * The Von Bondies * Walls of Jericho * Insane Clown Posse WTF is Motown? 1. slang name for Detroit 2. music released on or reminiscent of the US record label Tamla Motown. The first black-owned record company in the US, Tamla Motown was founded in Detroit in 1959 by Berry Gordy, and was important in popularizing soul music, producing artists such as * Marvin Gaye * Stevie Wonder * The Supremes * The Jackson Five * The Temptations * Martha & the Vandellas * George Clinton * The Commodores * Gladys Knight & the Pips * The Four Tops * Boyz 2 Men * Marvin Gaye* The Isley Brothers * Tammi Terrell * Thelma Houston * Rick James * Michael Jackson * Billy Preston * The Undisputed Truth * The Pointer Sisters * Beyonce * Edwin Star Today as always, is an open thread, so post whatever music, gifs and pics blow your hair back. We would love to see and hear them. Let's get the party started mkay? Feel free to sing along and dance.... YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO. ;-)
