Great Voices From Your Home Town

Michael Buble...

Also from Detroit

Martha & the Vandellas - Heatwave

Listen to the pitch control on the lead vocal and harmonies. No auto-tune in the 1960s, you simply had to be a very good singer.

These women were wonderful. I go back to the days of the Motown Revue at the Fox Theater in Detroit, where every star on the label made a live appearance with the Motown band.

They were f#cking great, every last one of them.

Dave Shankle is from my hometown, West Chicago IL. He was a neighborhood legend back in the day and is still active.

San Francisco just has too many to list .. Wiki has 70 pages.... Nice too see another Palo Alto guy! I spent my first 11 years there , pop was Asst Fire Chief.

If only we could claim the Beatles, it'd really piss Sergio off to have to hear about it.

Don’t be greedy, you already have Kid Rock and Ted Nugent.

I share your feelings about both, however.

That is my favorite Joplin song for a number of reasons! It is my understanding that this was the last or one of the last songs she ever recorded and died very shortly after it's recording ;~((

Why Janis would want a MB when she had the coolest Porsche ever ... this was taken in front of San Francisco's Palace of Fine Arts
