yes sir! the chicks love marvin!
lol, hell yea.
Ya know what's kinda creepy... the dentist I go to, all the assistants are middle-aged black women, and when I go I'm usually baked. So when I speak(very deep voice already), they all flock to me and say "Damn honey, you sound just like Barry White!... Say something else..."
Kinda wierd

Kids:
Not a big fan of Motown, with the exception of Marvin Gaye. Diana Ross? The black Celine Dionne with an ego to match..the "rest" of the Supremes, brilliant harmonies and arrangements
I Kinda like the Atlantic Records/Stax-Volt sound of R&B. Otis Redding, Sam and Dave, Stax-Volt Band, Etta James, Eddie Floyd etc etc etc . Maybe it just had a bit more of an edge to it. They didn't need the "strings" and all the flowery arrangements.
Just my opinion

Im in total agreement. MoTow/Staxx/Chicago area style changed music forever. You cant name a great band/soloist that wasnt influenced in some way by this music.
