Berry Gordy Jr., the founder of Tamla Records, started the company in 1959 as an American record company. The original company was absorbed into the Motown Record Corporation in 1960 in the then thriving Detroit. Filled with promise, Detroit provided the perfect recipe for success for Motown.

Racial integration into music is highly attributed to Motown.

The Motown Sound was born offering a distinct pop influence infused with a unique version of soul music. The small record company became legendary in the 1960s when the company had 79 records hit the Billboard Hot 100 charts.

Motown would eventually move from Detroit to Los Angeles in 1967 following the Detroit Riots. The move helped Motown gain even more success.

The company grew through several subsidiaries. The Motown artists during the record company’s initial success include Eddie Holland, Mable John and Mary Wells. The record company would then sign several artists to the label, including the Jackson 5, the Four Tops, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, the Miracles and the Marvelettes.

Gordy’s third label would include the Monitors, the Spinners, the Temptations and several other artists. Soul, the company’s fifth label would sign on the famous Gladys Knight & the Pips, the Originals and Shorty Long among several others.

Motown’s Greatest Hits: How Sweet It Is works to encompass the sound and style of Motown during the height of the company’s existence. Fans of the Motown style will be greeted with an authentic sound and style that took the world by storm in the 60s.

The show’s success has led to over one million tickets being sold for this stunning celebration of music.
