The Message
Legendary, untouchable, versatile…these are just a few words to describe one of the greatest, most influential record labels of ALL-TIME, Motown. The record label started back in 1959 (in Detroit) by Berry Gordy, which was FIFTY years ago, hence the title of my latest mix, Motown Fifty. This is my way of saying thank you to all of the super talented artists and musicians that blessed us with some amazing music, music that will live within us all for the rest of our lives. That’s powerful.

Sit back, relax, and try to enjoy this journey through Motown music…
