About The Fabulous Motown Review

In the early 60s, Detroit was on the move. It was Motown U.S.A., home to major auto makers, and the newly formed Motown Records. Motown founder Berry Gordy not only lent an ear to a different kind of music in the air from a newly energized city. He coined it "the sound of young America...." And believed it would break down the barriers between lack and white popular music.

What's at the heart of the "Motown Sound" is questionable even today. Of course, there were stylistic elements that artists of the 60's and 70's shared. But these same artists represented such distinct styles, and were so different from each other, that one could only agree that a single "Motown Sound" is a myth. Unless you believe that there is no difference between the Contours' "Do You Love Me," Mary Well's "My Guy," The Four Tops' "Reach Out I'll Be There," and Marvin Gayes' "I Heard Ir Through The Grapevine."

Only one group, dedicated to recreating the Motown experience in both music and dance, understands the similarities and differences of the Motown Sound. They are The Fabulous Motown Revue. Al wide range of audiences nationwide, including major corporations and organizations, have seen and heard for themselves what could only be described as true Motown.
