DETROIT | Black ties and gowns filled a ballroom Saturday in a big-bucks salute to Detroit-style royalty — the King of Motown, the Queen of Soul and the Kid of Rock. Motown Records founder Berry Gordy, along with Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder and Kid Rock came to Motown's original hometown for the Motown 50 Golden Gala. The 50th-anniversary event, which fetched $350 and up for a ticket, was...
During a recent interview, we asked vocalist Bebel Gilberto what she wanted her audience to come away with after a performance. With characteristic flair, she responded, "Love and passion, of course." Those romantic sentiments prevail throughout Gilberto's new recording, All in One , which she will be supporting in concert tonight at the 9:30 Club . Her first release on the Verve label,...
If you remember my earlier post on Michelle Obama being on Sesame Street I talked about possibly finding footage of the earlier First Ladies who were on this well-known children’s show. Well, I managed to find two out of three and so am posting them here as well as some other Sesame Street related information. The first First Lady to appear on Sesame Street was Barbara Bush, so I’m going...
You can forgive the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame a bit of fuzzy math in calling this their 25th anniversary. First and foremost, any excuse to put on a star-studded concert event like this is going to be accepted. (Just is.) Secondly, they're really splitting the difference, given that it was founded in 1983 but didn't have an induction until three years later. Recorded over two nights (October 29-30)...
Birthday party: Motown Records founder Berry Gordy, Aretha Franklin, Kid Rock and Stevie Wonder headlined Saturday's Motown 50 Golden Gala in Detroit, celebrating the iconic record label's 50th anniversary.
From Rap Radar : " We’re still celebratin’ the King. This is the best tune off his finest posthumous release that I’ve heard thus far. Stevie Wonder wrote the following and how it didn’t end up being on an Michael Jackson album before is beyond me. If you don’t like this one, get the f-ck off my site and don’t you ever come back ." You know me : I co-sign...
Detroit -- It was a real Detroit house party Saturday night at the downtown Marriott, as the Motown family, friends and fans celebrated the 50th anniversary of when the "sound of young America" was born in a dowdy middle-class neighborhood in Detroit. There was birthday cake (for Berry Gordy's 80th birthday next Saturday), Stevie Wonder love songs, a video tribute from the President of the...
So - James Taylor and Carole King are touring next year. I loved JT in his prime, and couldn't avoid Tapestry even tho I never owned it. But I like Carole. And I've seen James a couple of times - in England in '74 (at a festival with Tony Joe White and Lou Reed no less!) and again in Sydney in '81 - with Bill Payne on keyboards and the usual great bunch of musicians. So why am I resisting going this...
I'm here watching the Paulo Thiago fight getting ready for the co-main events. I'm actually more fired up for the Johnson v Koscheck fight. Both fighters are black I guess, so when situations like that occur, you pull for the darker skinned one, so go Johnson. Anyway, as is my little tradition when I watch UFC's at home, I try to find some beer from the areas of the main event fighters. The best one...
Berry Gordy founded what would become Motown Records a half-century ago with an $800 loan. Today, that would get you two tickets with a bit to spare to the Motown 50 Golden Gala. For $200 more, you can attend a VIP event and a swanky party afterward. The event is set for downtown Detroit Saturday, with a scheduled appearance by Gordy and planned performances by Aretha Franklin, The Temptations and...
