There are two things that Detroit is most famous for. The first is obvious. Mass production of vehicles by way of the assembly line, courtesy of Henry Ford. During World War 2, Detroit, "The Arsenal of Democracy", was the only place capable of producing the armaments needed to win the war. Good job.
The second most important is Motown Records. Do yourself a favor. If you love music, visit the Motown Museum, as I just did. Located on West Grand Blvd., Detroit. Featured are pictures, costumes, musical instruments, an echo chamber, gold and platinum records, and much more. I don't want to give it all away. And, then there's Studio A. Barry Gordy's converted garage. Every Motown hit was recorded there. Supremes, 4 Topps, Smokey Robinson, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Jacksons, Vandellas, Temptations, Marvelettes, Velvelettes, Gladys Knight,Mary Welles. Ten dollars allows you to be in that room. Sacred ground. Yeah.
