The museum, btw, is well worth a visit, I had no idea that the whole idea behind the label was to groom young local talent for stardom. So much so, that I'm now looking forward to seeing the Motown musical on Broadway. Like you I like many genres of music (possibly more than genres of books!)Mel Parishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06198036217758715274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5121713786115341773.post-35565296266960411232014-02-26T22:27:19.317-05:002014-02-26T22:27:19.317-05:00So many songs.

Not unlike a lot of folks, music is woven in just about every memory of my youth...for good and for not so good too! :)jacquiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07319760774255347751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5121713786115341773.post-90080896436725478962014-02-26T13:55:33.516-05:002014-02-26T13:55:33.516-05:00Thanks for dropping by C.M. and for joining via Go...Thanks for dropping by C.M. and for joining via Google Friend Connect.

I sometimes wonder whether if someone had told him he would be singing those songs in his 'Maggie May' days, whether he would have laughed! There's just something about his voice which makes him perfect for all the ballads.Mel Parishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06198036217758715274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5121713786115341773.post-40565582930267995482014-02-26T09:43:48.614-05:002014-02-26T09:43:48.614-05:00Stopping by from Indies Unlimited.
