Summary: Detroit is the music hall of fame!!
Comment: This video only begins to demonstrate the influence that Detroit artists have had on modern music. How many commercials, tv shows, and movie films used motown songs??

This is a rather short video, but worthwhile if you are old enough to remember the tiny B&W tv screens, and one small, tinny speaker in the cabinet, that we watched and listened to!!

Summary: More Shows Please!
Comment: In this film you get to see more then The Temptations and The Supremes, you get to see Junior Walker and The All Stars, The Four Tops, Martha and The Vadellas performing their number 1 hits, I wish they would do more films like this showing rare clips of the Motown artists. The Motown artist back in the 60s, were the hardest working performers in the 60s. Hopefully in the future we'll see more like this.

Summary: For All the Music Fans in the World, This Is A Must!
Comment: If you want to know Motown sound, this is it. Of course, the company keeps on thriving after 1960s, but everythimg started here.

The show is full of now unforgettable sound; from the starting act of Junior Walker's "Shotgun," the exciting music does not stop. Super-cool "My Girl" follows and look at how The Temptations sing. There is The Supremes, Martha and the Vandellas, the Four Tops, singing with the dancing girls who, using a little gimmick, suddenly disappear from the stage (!); there is Smokey Robinson and the Miracles (singing the song late George Harrsion sang in "With the Beatles") and of course, Marvin Gaye. You know many songs, and even if you don't, the sound is so irresitible that you will find your feet stamping to the sound.

And the greatest merit of watching this show is, I think, you can see the artists really sing (without lip-sync). The inclusion of The Blossoms seems strange, but it is a good thing to watch one of the most underrated group perform "Dancing in the Street" with Darling Love as lead vocal. Love, now remembered by some as a regular in "Lethal Weapon" series (as wife of Danny Glover's character), is actually one of the best singers the music industry neglected, and you will recognize that fact with this video. Don't you ever think that old, black-and-white TV program cannot excite you. It's, to me, much better than 10 hours of MTV! Don't miss it!

Summary: Shindig Presents Motor City Majic VHS
Comment: I enjoyed the video...however...I was hoping for more of the Temptations...also, I would have preferred seeing the groups (especially my favorite - The Temptations- on the stage without the "stands" that really restricted their being able to do their fancy "moves"...If anyone knows of any VHS's that include the Temptations on stage I'd like to know about them. My other disappointment is the short time (approx 30 min) of the entire program.
