*Lets wish Berry Gordy Happy Birthday, 85 y/o today. In 1959 Mr. Gordy founded Motown Records with a $800.00 loan from family members. He was the drive and determination behind Motown , he did what many people of his time believed could never be done: he brought Black music into millions of White Americans homes, helping both black artists and their culture gain acceptance, and opening the door for many successful Black recording executives and producers, through the music of Motown.*
