Motown changed the culture....Diana and the Supremes changed the culture...

[@TheRetNetwork]

Indeed!

[@appledoreman]

I read this book, one of the best autobiographies I've ever read - & Berry Gordy is one of the great men of the 20th century. Wonderful interview, thanks for posting.

[@TheRetNetwork]

Totally agree! Thanks for commenting, glad you enjoyed!

[@ThunderBroomPilot]

I visited Mowtown in Detroit a few days ago. I expected to hear historical tales and some facts. What I also got was an incredible feeling of inspiration, and that feeling is staying with me so far. Places like Mowtown provide uplifting spirit that can help one pursue and achieve own potential.

[@TheRetNetwork]

Wow! That's awesome. Thanks so much for sharing!

[@nickx4576]

Excellent interview and excellent book

[@dorothybeck7559]

Hitsville USA is a great documentary about Motown with Barry Gordy and Smokey Robinson telling the story...fabulous!

[@TheRetNetwork]

Thanks for commenting Dorothy! Please stay tuned!

[@davidmoore5284]

Hello there how are you doing?

[@AlkalineInsides]

Berry Gordy was like “damn she look fine”

[@CCTH2221-lp2zj]

I admire Berry Gordy so much. I joined the Motown museum many years ago when I visited for the first time and it was so exciting just to be in that building. This interview is interesting because you can tell he was just starting to come out of his “shell” sort of. He hadn’t had much training with these kinds of interviews until he wrote this book. So when Rose asked questions you can see him squirm a little. Now he’s much more at ease with these types of questions. “The Making Of Hitsville” is an incredible documentary fo anyone who hasn’t seen it yet…

[@TheRetNetwork]

Agreed, thanks for watching and for commenting!

[@123pb]

Nearly 30 years ago...wow

[@dtrn254]

Diana was the "money". I love that 👍✔️👍

[@539jchat]

Berry Gordy . GENIUS. Geniuses can talk about many, many things but Interviewer is Endlessly fascinated with the relationship between the Genius and Diana Ross like he was jealous or something!! How about exploring the genius ot Berry Gordy!!

[@wesdon8131]

They need to do a film on him

[@amorai7113]

I don't think the interviewer was the right person to conduct this interview. He seem to have a chip on his shoulder to me. Jealousy perhaps may be part of his problem. I thought he was pretending to be a fan.

[@539jchat]

@@amorai7113 Pretending Indeed. Hard to imagine him popping his fingers to some Motown rhythms.

[@MA-yh2ko]

I recently saw a clip of Berry playing the piano which explained so much about his musicality and why his influence and opinion mattered.

[@vernonsmith6176]

Berry taught Smokey how to write a song with words that even Mr Gordy could ever imagine!!

[@suzettepfleider7157]

I was always a Motown fan

[@bornwithaBA]

Did he call him Barry? LOL!

[@sharw9621]

Wow. Charlie is such a bad interviewer. He goes from one thing to the other with choppy transitions. And bringing up Michael Jackson buying the Beatles had nothing to do with Gordy. .I'm sorry that Gordy was subjected to this.

[@ctruth6185]

The Charlie Rose show is two hours. Gordy's interview was over an hour it was edited for this video which is why the transitions are choppy.

[@keepsit100atalltime9]

​@@ctruth6185Doesn't mean Gordy was the only guest.

[@forthdimension686]

I can believe this was recorded the same year i was born and they were already writing their memoirs 😂. Talk about late to the party

[@loboatwater8730]

THE BEST

[@knockshinnoch1950]

Oh dear, the first thing an interviewer needs to do is get the name of their guest correct. He keeps referring to BARRY Gordy throughout the interview.

[@befitforlifegetone8114]

Berry: Diana, “ she wanted stardom in the worst way” “ if it’s about money she’ll do anything “ Michael: “Dirty Diana”

[@thelog86]

Of all the people he dealt with you hardly ever heard of any artist talking negative about him as far as cheating them out of royalties, putting them in one sided contracts. At least i havent heard of anything significant. These new producers thats all you hear

[@anitacalloway5673]

Martha Reeves of Martha and the Vandellas said he severely underpaid the groups and musicians saying it was to pay the system. But she said he wasn’t doing anything the other record companies were doing, which is just an excuse.

[@ctruth6185]

Glad he's setting the record straight. Tired of people cashing in by speaking for others. Why didn't Berry groom his sons to run the company? Rumors & gossip hurt his legacy that's a shame. Once you get into the bed with an artist/employee professionalism goes out the window. Diana loved Berry and he didn't want to marry her. She gave him the greatest honor a woman can give a man and he still didn't marry her. Berry was her baby Daddy. Sure would like to read something from Berry's first & second wives.

[@Maatization]

His legacy is only ruin by narrow minded people.

[@brockreynolds870]

All he did was try to gloss over the fact that he cheated his recording artists. Even Diana Ross herself only had 200,000$ to her name in 1980 when she left Motown. 16 number one hits, and that's all she had to show for it. She took 20 million dollar advance from RCA and never looked back.

Lol !!! B nice 2 Charlie Rose. Lol !!!

[@panchovilla7235]

I didn’t need to hear the interviewer asking all those personal questions. I am sure that guy interviewing Mr Gordy would not like those questions asked about him especially since he was accused of harassing women.

[@appledoreman]

Agreed, but Berry Gordy dealt with them very graciously, didn't he?

[@panchovilla7235]

yes at the beginning he called him Barry! and then named a handful of Motown Stars but missed out Stevie Wonder!!!

[@hanaluong2672]

Do you see any resemblance of Jimmy Carter's face on Berry Gordy's face? They are only second cousins.

[@TheRetNetwork]

Can't see the resemblance but it might be there somewhere. Lol. Thanks for sharing, we've heard that before.

[@katy9569]

Who is the man interviewing him

[@TheRetNetwork]

Charlie Rose. Thanks for tuning in!

[@LRomm]

Charlie Rose is a horrible interviewer. First he finishes the sentences of his guests instead of letting them speak. Several times, he cut Berry Gordy off and finished the sentence as if he knew what Mr. Gordy was going to say. That is a bad habit that most women have. They ask a question and then answer. Most women are incapable of shutting up and listening but men should be able to master the art of effective listening. As an interviewer, ask the question and let your guest answer it fully. Second, Charlie jumps from one subject to another with no segue. Third, he never held up Mr. Gordy's book. Clearly Mr. Gordy was there to promote his book, so hold it up for the audience. On a scale of one to ten, I give Charlie's interviewing and hosting skills a five.[]

[@rubyromaine3911]

This interviewer was so inappropriate.

[@davidmoore5284]

Hello there, how are you doing?

Didn't like the way Chris Wallace was asking certain questions .

This man is disgusting touching young boys he is putrid for doing what he did to Michael Jackson as a kid 😢 everyone will find out the truth 2024

The same shit is go on today.

[@brodocbetty4856]

Berry was a businessman and about making money not giving it away and that's what he did right or wrong.

[@cireewol]

He should be in prison for what he did to all those young acts! I have no consideration for this man, as he's pure evil!

[@Maatization]

Nobody would have heard of the young acts if it wasn't for Berry and to dismiss this Black man who did more for Black people then you know...to dismiss him as evil...wow

Based on what?
