Temple of soul music and rhythm'n'blues, Motown, the independent label created in Detroit by Berry Gordy in 1959 has become a style all on its own. Against a backdrop of segregation, racial riots and the struggle carried by the ideals of Martin Luther King, the story of this mythical label could not be told without shedding light on a historical context of great violence. But Motown also embodies glamor with artists whose world-famous hits still throw us on the dance floor today. In addition to the covers, portraits and urban atmospheres, the label's archives have made it possible to reproduce tasty studio scenes here... A treat!
We find Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, Diana Ross & the Supremes, The Temptations, Lionel Richie, Smokey Robinson & the Miracles, the Jackson 5, Michael Jackson, The Marvelettes, Martha & the Vandellas and many others.
