A few birthdays today.

Berry Gordy, founder of Motown records must be the first for today, except where does one start with so many fine acts?  I know, he was even active even some time before.

Post your favorite Motown.

Kristine Arnold of the Sweethearts of the Rodeo, outstanding song, "Midnight Girl in a Sunset Town"

--- Quote ---And there's one stop-light
Blinkin' on and off
Everyone knows when
Their neighbors cough.

They roll up the streets
When the sun goes down
I'm a midnight girl
In a sunset town.
--- End quote ---

Gary Troxel of the Fleetwoods, the band is well known for the "Mr. Blue Song" and "Come Softly To Me" if I have that history correct. "The Great Imposter" was in the movie "American Graffiti" and it's pretty good too.

Did some of their members go on to form another group or perform solo, I thought so but can not find any such backup. I thought there was some sort of connection.

They had such a mellow sound.
