Motown: The Music that Moved the World

Glencoe Public Library
Forte Reference Room

Event Details

In Detroit in the 1960s, Motown Records produced hits as efficiently as the Ford Motor Company produced automobiles: 110 top ten hits by performers such as The Supremes, The Temptations, Marvin Gaye, and Stevie Wonder. Gary Wenstrup returns to the library to trace the musical journey from the power soul of “Dancing in the Streets” and “I Heard It Through the Grapevine" to the psychedelic soul of “Cloud Nine” and “What's Going On” to the pop soul of The Jackson 5. Mr. Wenstrup is an adjunct professor at College of DuPage.
