"Time for a Motown revival. Led by Mr Jahmene Douglas
revival??.....its not went anywhere!!! alive and well all over the world"
I never said it did. But it's not as popular as it used to be. Can't say I'm particularly bothered as I like what I like and don't care if others do, but it would be cool to see these type of acts back in the charts. |

Doesn't have to be the original artists though, does it? Nothing wrong with new artists coming along and doing that style of music.
Besides, I'm sure a lot of current artists in popular music now would reference some of these artists as influences. Only they have changed it up in someway. Stevie Wonders entire back catalogue must have been sampled by one hip hop artist or another over the past 20 years. |

Most of the original artists are either dead or in no fit state to perform lol.
And when it's a band that has none of the original members? Maybe time to call it a day? |

Lots of greats mentioned but can't believe no one has yet said Levi Stubbs. A voice filled with sheer emotion and for me the ultimate. And another to rival any of them would be Jackie Wilson, a voice like velvet. |

For a voice that'll make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up just listen to Arnold McCuller backing James Taylor on the video of the live rendition of 'Shower the People' - it's on Youtube. |
