Well written documumentay chronicling the beginning of Motown/Tamla records from the late 50's to the early 70's. Narrated on screen by Berry Gordy and Smokey Robinson. Many of the surviving writers/producers of Motown are interviewed as wel as artists such as Otis Williams of the Temptations, Martha Reeves of Martha and the Vandellas and Stevie Wonder who started his career as Little Stevie wonder. Wonderful early clips of almost all the stars of the era. Didn't need fireworks or dozens of background dancers. Only talent. This was evident with the Temptations singing acapella in the studio in the early sixties. Great rapport between Gordy and Robinson who have been friends and partners for decades. A must see for any up and coming singers of today.
