If I'm ever in the Motor City (That may not happen), I thought of having a soundtrack of ALL the best songs of Motown. I have a few, but I'd like to find some more.

Artists like...

Martha and the Vandellas
Jackson 5
Marvin Gaye
Stevie Wonder
Diana Ross
The Supremes (Diana Ross Years)
Temptations (NOT "The Way You Do The Things You Do"...I don't like that song)
Smokey Robinson and the Miracles
Four Tops

Any other good Motown Artists?

The lesser Motown is the better Motown


Check out these

The Marvelettes
The Contours
The Velvelettes
Jr. Walker & The All Stars
Chris Clark
The Funk Brothers


or check out Motown's rock side like the great Rare Earth, and a band called the Underdogs who do a smokin' (and I mean smokin')version of the Tempts "The Way You Do, The Things You Do".

Wait...

Was this thread in "Chit-Chat/Music" before?

If not...can I get this thread moved there since this is a Music Thread and not a Movie Thread.

Syreeta, singer/songwriter and the first wife of Stevie Wonder (they often worked in tandem), is one of Motown's great underrated artists. Though she died in 2004, her music lives on - a lot of it is on iTunes, as well as some CD compilations.
