5. I dunno, I really loved Marvin Gaye....and Smokey...
But the reason they all sounded so amazing is cuz of the Funk Brothers backing them up.

7. Not to be the bah humbug guy, but I'm kind of over Motown.
Edited on Sun Jun-05-11 11:47 PM by Cant trust em
I've grown up listening it for my whole life and now it just seems kind of flat to me. I like my soul with a little more guts to it. I prefer the Stax label generally.

But the Temptations are my favorite.
