Best Motown band of all time

[SweetHomeGoodison]

This is like being asked what is your favourite Beatles track.
Some of my fave Motown artistes / tracks
Steve Wonder, Inner Visions album, particularly, Livin for the city, Golden Lady, Hes Misstra Know It All.
Isley Brothers, Put yourself In My Place, Summer Breeze
R Dean Taylor, Theres a Ghost In My House
Marvin Gaye, Well everything, but Lets Get it On, Heard it through the Grape Vine, Abraham, Martin and John.
But so many others also

for me 2 of the greatest motown acts were the lsley bros and Edwin Starr. I also think Sam Cooke had the finest voice I've ever heard

Couldn’t disagree mate. Impeccable.

Didn’t think the Drifters were Motown. Atlantic i think

probably the definitive Motown group is the Supremes.

no idea what my favorite is. Too difficult topick!

Live at The Harlem Square Club is my favorite live album by any artist

Haha. Without doubt the #1 end-of-party pick-up aid in my early teens.

Closely followed by How Can I Be Sure? (David Cassidy) and Guitar Man (Bread)...

(This probably should be a thread somewhere. It was indeed another time.)

I remember MC Hammer murdering this classic in the early 90s.

What a tune. Made even better by the fact we've got a song for Mina to the tune.

I’ve always preferred Philly


or Atlantic stuff

Or as mentioned previously Sam Cooke , I went to see Bobby Womack at The Phil not long before he died , he still had a great voice.
