Berry Gordy outside Motown's headquarters
In 1959, Barrett Strong recorded “Money (That’s What I Want),” which charted on the #Billboard #Hot100 the following year… and, even more importantly, became the first major hit for Gordy’s Tamla label, helping set the stage for Motown’s rise. #BarrettStrong #BarryGordy #Motown #OneHitWondered
Barrett Strong
Barrett Strong’s storied musical journey began in Detroit, becoming part of the city’s early R&B scene just as Barry Gordy was building what would become Motown. Strong was one of the first artists signed by the fledgling enterprise. #BarrettStrong #BarryGordy #Motown #OneHitWondered
Creativity is protest in color and sound. It is INerasable.
