Born and raised in Detroit. Been in the bay area for a lifetime. I remember the Motown Review. I didn't attend many. I remember seeing Jackie Wilson as an adolescent. A memorable show indeed. What an artist he was and taken far too soon. White flight was in full force when I graduated high school (Mumford). One of the Miracles of Smokey Robinson and the Miracles moved in 2 doors down from my house.
Dinah Washington and her husband , the famous football player, "Night Train" Lane, moved in on the corner of my block. Detoit was , like so many others, a city of institutionalized segregation.
