Airing on Sunday Morning Edition, Don Was and Don Gonyea take a drive around Detroit. Don Was recalls the old days when Barry Gordy launched Motown and the great music made there. Motown is remembered for noisy surfaces and scratched kids records but a pristine copy on good gear makes the old works shine. Them women could sing!

And 60 years on, the soundtrack of our teen years is still apropos in the current era.
