I simply cannot believe that the Managing Editor of the Michigan Chronicle twice in the entire article refers to Berry as BARRY. Unbelievable.

I agree Bill....as Motown folks, it's a glaring mistake when you read the article.

And another glaring error in the article is referring to The Funk Bros. as The Song Bros. However, I did enjoy reading the interview with Otis Williams so thanks to Woodward for sharing.

Interesting article, thanks for sharing Bill.

Calling the Funk Brothers the Song Brothers is a bit weird IMO... I've never heard them called that before, and they're not even similar... lol

And then the whole calling Berry Barry thing!!!!!

I was also a bit surprised when I read Otis Williams was "best known for his signature bass riffs" -- is this true? I didn't know he was.

She is a new writer with the Chronicle I believe , but still that is not an excuse. LOL!

I'd like to add that the Michigan Chronicle needs a proofreader [[and the writer should get to know more about The Motown Era). The three big mistakes in the article with The Tempts' Otis Williams are glaring [[especially to us long time Temptations & Motown fans).

This really shows the change in popular culture. A lot of people under the age of 40 do not know who he is.
