Grammy Museum will present
The Grammy Museum will present “Motown: The Sound of Young America,” an exhibition dedicated to the Detroit-born record company, opening April 13 at the LBJ Presidential Library in Austin, Texas.
It will feature vintage stage outfits from acts including The Supremes, The Temptations, Four Tops and The Miracles, along with instruments played by the Hitsville studio band The Funk Brothers.
It also will feature several interactive displays: Visitors will be able to play drums to The Temptations’ “My Girl,” step onstage to perform The Supremes’ “Stop! In the Name of Love” and put their own twist on a half-finished composition created for the occasion by Lamont Dozier of the Holland-Dozier-Holland hit-making team.
The Motown exhibition will run at the LBJ library through January and is likely to tour after it wraps up in Austin.
