The Story of Motown Introduced by Stuart Grundy
2: How Sweet It Is
By 1964 a sense of order had arrived at Motown that was apparent even on the other side of the world. Motown. unlike any other record company, employed a 'house band', recorded entirely in its own studios and opened up an 'artist development' department to enhance the natural talent that it was recruiting in Detroit. With a rich mixture of planning and good fortune, the label founder,
Berry Gordy , was now running one of the fastest growing American companies of any sort.
