The Same Old Song Story

OUR MOTOWN HERITAGE
At Recording Institute of Detroit

"Of all of the great musical epicenters, perhaps Detroit is one of the largest in American History ... not just in the 60's but all the up to the present era." -Roman Blanquart / DFO The Grammy Museum, 2008

One of the most memorable stories about Motown's early days centers around the release of "The Same Old Song" by The Four Tops.

MOTOWN HERITAGE FEATURES:

DETROIT FREE PRESS VIDEOS	With Motown Records celebrating its 50th anniversary, the Free Press staff traveled literally coast to coast uncovering the histories behind the history, seeking out the stories that demonstrate the label’s continued relevance. 50 Videos will be posted, three of which will feature interviews with Bob Dennis, Founder of RID.
MOTOWN HERITAGE ARTICLES	In the mid 60's a Detroit neighborhood recording company came out of "nowhere" to become the largest independent record company in the world. Both technical and musical innovations were commonplace and helped shape the independent music industry into what it is today. Bob Dennis recounts his days at Motown in the mid 1960's
