Stevie is a musical genius
Great video about a part of Motown history. I fell in love with Tamla Motown as a young boy in England. Whilst my friends were listening to The Beatles & Rolling Stones etc I was listening to The Four Tops, Marvin, The Temps etc and of course Little Stevie Wonder. Now, in our 60's, whenever we get together, what music do we listen to? Motown! The sound is timeless. God bless all those who were a part of that wonderful company & thankyou for the beautiful music you gave us. 👍👍
