I'm a white soul woman who used to sing with a hair brush in hand and learned all the new dances. We'd spend hours listening to KJR or KOL coming out of Seattle. Oh yeah Motown -- it's like I'm 12 all over again! Those were some carefree days now weren't they. Fighting the CV-19 virus don't have it buy self isolating so we don't get it. Nothing beats Motown.

Born in '53 in Brooklyn, playing buck-buck and stickball in Park slope, Mountain Dew, stealing dad's Winstons, the Yankees, Catholic school girls in knee socks, playing Brisk on the stoop on a summer night, 15 cent pizza slice- a quarter with a grape drink, making up confession on a saturday, opening the fire hydrant, Coney Island and Chow mein sandwiches at Nathans, jumpin turnstiles and hitchin buses, Double features at the RKO and cartoons, making out in the balcony-this was the theme music. My, how time flies.

[@clarencedixon3290]

Born in 66, in the middle of everything going in the USA and around the world. Motown music had a driving force of what was happening. Like Reflections, Love Child, Papa was a rolling stone etc. Telling what was going on in our neck of woods. Civil rights, women's rights, Vietnam , and assassination among other issues. Music was and is a way to listen, dance and romance to even if it's a short time.

[@robharding5345]

Born in 57, brought up with the Beatles in the 60's, Slade in the 70's, But this Motown stuff seems to have been there all the time, Great Music.

Another night of listening to my favorite songs of yesteryear, as I looked up at the list I began to scroll, spotted your name again Greg and I immediately clicked to hear this playlist and yes, just as expected, it's another one I have now added to my playlists. I can't even explain to you where I was because these songs span throughout my young life and so many different emotions. What I can tell you is that I remember when Diana Ross left the Supremes and cried when I heard the song Ain't no Mountain High Enough. Thanks again Greg for the playlist I'm adding to mine!

[@darleneg.dejarnette915]

Keep the beautiful old school songs comeing thanks, God bless 🙏 😇🙌

[@spoonerfive]

1965 through 1975 was the greatest decade of an explosion of music diversity in history! The Beatles, DC5, Stones, Who, Kinks, and the British Invasion, Motown and their stable of talented groups, The Beach Boys and the west coast sound, and the Four Seasons, Lovin' Spoonful, and Young Rascals in the east. (NY/NJ area) I was 12 in 1965, and battery-operated AM and then AM/FM transistor radios from Japan were the technology of choice back then!

I grew up in the suburbs of Detroit where Motown was at that time the center of the music universe. Every kid had a transistor radio tuned into CKLW-AM from Windsor, ONT or WKNR-AM (DET) which was known as "Keener 13". One thing which was great was it didn't matter who you were EVERYBODY loved Motown and '60s rock and roll music!

[@Maclaren415]

I had my mother screaming at me to go to sleep with my 9 volt battery transistor radio going while laying in bed on a school night... playing Motown from the States...I was a kid in Toronto whose only ambition in life was to wear white shoes with tailor made stove pipe pants and be a "soul man"...lord I miss those days!

[@mst3ktemple421]

You nailed in Charles. I grew up in the northern suburbs of Detroit in the 1960's and 70's. Every day at recess we would have our transistor radio on CKLW or Keener 13. It seemed every week Motown would have another smash hit. So many great songs and great performers.
