    Robin sure seemed like a nice, down to earth man. It's sad we've lost another really important piece of the Motown legacy. I'm sure we can all agree he played a big part in promoting the company.
    Thanks for posting the above video Marv, it was enjoyable.

    You're most welcome Darin. I plan to search for and buy Robin's book.

    Through the years I was fortunate to have various dealings with Robin. Legendary doesn't quite describe the guy. I can't remember when he wasn't on the radio. Definitely a Detroit presence of the highest order.

    Ralph, he had a lot of energy too. He was doing television commercials way into his 80s. I can't remember the product at the moment, but once it came on, you knew it was him! His face changed some over time ,but his spirit, character and personality was the same throughout!
