Motown The DVD Giveaway

Filed under entertainment, giveaways

This giveaway is now closed. Congratulations to commentor #70: Cujo!

To celebrate 50 years of Motown, a brand new DVD has been released with 18 TV performances by some of the greatest artists of all time: Marvin Gaye, The Temptations, Four Tops, The Supremes, Stevie Wonder, Gladys Knight & The Pips, Smokey Robinson & The Miracles, and many more.

“Motown Records changed the sound of popular music and also its face. With Motown artists appearing on television’s music and variety shows, the label put African-Americans in the spotlight like no other music company ever had. In this 50th anniversary year of Motown’s founding, Motown 50 – The DVD (Motown/UMe), to be released November 3, 2009, presents 18 classic and often rare television performances from 1965 through 1971 featuring some of the label’s greatest artists performing their biggest hits.”

I have to say that I really enjoyed this DVD. I didn’t recognize some of the artists’ names but there was no mistaking their classic songs. It was fun to look back at a different era and see how things have changed over the years.

Purchase your copy at Amazon.com for $16.99.

    That is an extremely tough choice to make, but despite it not being one of the bigger titles from Motown, I have to say “Music & Me” by Michael Jackson.
