We were pleased to invite singing duo Caz and Ellie to Loose Valley Care Home last week to perform their Motown show for our residents.
They dressed in black and white dresses of the era and bright chunky earrings – they certainly looked the part!
It was great fun singing along to our favourite songs like Marvin Gaye, The Four Tops, Diana Ross, The Supremes, and many more – everyone thoroughly enjoyed the show.
It allowed us to take a magical journey into the past when remembering dancing to this ‘feel good’ music of Downtown Detroit, city home of the motorcar. That’s how Motown got its name – a portmanteau of ‘motor‘ and ‘town‘, with Tamla Records being created in 1959.
