It was. I've got another one coming up after Motown.

*grins* I have never been to the city, so I have no idea if I would love or hate or something between it.
*grins again* I had to read your sentence thrice to get it. I was listening for a song "I wouldn't call it love".

The Motown sound can be heard in a lot of today's music. It influenced a lot of artists, today's stuff isn't nearly as smooth though.

That's because of The Funk Brothers. They were all jazz musicians playing in Detroit. Barry Gordy brought them into Motown to play all the music behind the Temptations, the Supremes, marvin, etc. If you want to know more check out the documentary -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standing_in_the_Shadows_of_Motown

Doh, I have a couple songs by them.
Thanks
YW.
Wishing you were here...lead vox by the late and very great Terry Kath. When he died, so did Chicago as far as I am concerned.

I was more a Terry Kath fan than Peter Cetera. That was Chicago's biggest hit, though.

Hey, are you a Dylan fan? I'm really digging the New Basement Tapes now. So many good songs. I love Marcus Mumford's voice so my favorite at the moment is When I Get My Hands On You.

Love Dylan. The next 4 coming up, including Marcus.
Can you name my three favorite Robert Zimmerman songs that I'll be playing?

No, but I'll gladly learn what they are Ooh, Hurricane!
Wonder if Beyond Here Lies Nothing is one of them...

In a little hilltop village they gambled for my clothes
I bargained for salvation and they gave me a lethal dose
I offered up my innocence and got repaid with scorn
"Come in" she said
"I'll give you shelter from the storm".

She was married when we first met
Soon to be divorced
I helped her out of a jam, I guess
But I used a little too much force
This actually happened.

From Peter Coyote's, Tracking Bob Dylan
I felt like I was hearing a headline, and decided at that moment, that for all his surrealistic affections, Dylan was a very literal chronicler of an absurd world. It was not his lyrics, but his subject matter which was bizarre, and much could be learned by paying attention.
