Just watched the event live on internet from the Netherlands, where it is already dark! Amazing to see Eddie Willis, Jack Ashford, Mickey Stevenson, Stevie Wonder, Claudette and all the others in the...

maar niet vandaag in Nederland Robb, want er ligt sneeuw en de gevoelstemperatuur is -10 Celcius!

thanks for the tip chidrummer; I'll start reading about United Sound Studios right away. I already found some info as well as a picture on the Soulful Detroit Tour:...

Good suggestions Ralph, I'll check out if something's happening at the Fox in the beginning of May. In what neighbourhood does Martha Reeves live?

About a year ago I started this thread in order to prepare my visit to Detroit last May. This year I have to go to Dallas for my work. And coming from Amsterdam I will have to change planes at...

Thanks for posting this Jobeterob; I was just looking for some background info on this album to use tonight (Monday 13 August, 9-10 PM: Soul Power on Radio Rijswijk) on a radio show about Diana Ross....

It does Jobeterob, since I took the picture on May 12, last. Most of the houses on this section of Buena Vista were looking great and the gardens well kept. Then I went to the Brewster Housing...

Thanks Reese! I was standing in Flo's house on 3767 Buena Vista just a few weeks ago:

Since I also have Diana's book, I will look at the picture you mentioned.

Thanks for the update Reese. I have the book you are referring to, so I will check that. Since the Brenda Holloway album Every Little Bit Hurts dates 1964 I am guessing the picture must have been...

It took me a few months to finally track down the picture with Mary in a T-shirt with the Dutch pirate radion station 'Veronica'. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_Veronica

I think you're right Mark, looks like the same spot to me!

I was there Saturday May 12, the day the museum re-openend, and had the same experience as thommg: the was the only book they had in the museum store. I read it the next day on my flight back to...

Thanks Marv,
I went downtown for record hunting on Woodward at Peoples Records. Found some 45's on Tamla, RicTic, Invictus, Anna, Thelma Records, Tri-Phi and Golden World. And then searched for the...

Hi guys, as promised I went to the Motorcity, rented a car and went straight to Livonia. First picture, of course, had to be of the gas station next door to compare prices. I then went to former Tera...

Jobeterob, about A Brand New Day you write ‘Had this been edited down and cleaned up a bit, it might have made a good single, as it’s just as danceable as “Ease On Down The Road’.

In fact in the...

Thanks chidrummer! And apparently, next to each former recording studio a gas station was built.

Chidrummer, I took the grand studio tour on this forum and found that Ed Wingate’s Golden World on 3246 West Davison became Motown’s studio B after Berry Gordy bought it in September 1966. On Google...

Thanks for all the info Ralph. and chidrummer: I've rented a car with GPS and am preparing a list of things and sites I want to visit. Still searching for vinyl record stores in the area, hoping to...

Thanks for your reaction Ralph. I recall that you once mentioned that where the gas station is now located, there used to be studio A. Was there another building in between the 2 locations at the...

I am planning to make a trip to Detroit in the beginning of May and visit Hitsville again. But also make a tour to visit some of the studios mentioned in the tour on the SD Forum. Is the building of...
