Berry Gordy is a king amongst kings. No idea how he pulled that off as a black man in the 1960s. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5655510&forum_id=2Elisa#48493924) |

How did he know these guys would be good and just crank out hit after hit (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5655510&forum_id=2Elisa#48495611) |

"His grandfather, named Berry Gordy I, was the son of James Gordy, a white plantation owner in Georgia, and one of his slaves. Berry I's half-brother, James (son of the elder James and his legal wife), was the grandfather of President Jimmy Carter." |

Date: August 3rd, 2025 1:15 PM Author: Up-to-no-good chestnut whorehouse music "sounding black" is really interesting, because in the cultural moment it can be the LOUDEST part of a piece of recorded music - the most noticeable, the most signified, to use a grad-schooly term.
But as time passes, that signifying gets completely lost. It would be like deleting a central component of the piece of art, and no one really notices.
I got thinking about this while listening to Louis Armstrong & Hot 5 stuff recently. It has swagger and attitude, but there is no overt blackness there... no danger, no threat to race relations, no encroachment on white space, etc.
I think this comes into play with Motown. I bet to contemporary and fresh ears a lot of what was heard was "black". And now there's none of that. |
