Detroit pays tribute to MJ /by now you're likely sick of hearing about this

Escaped to Detroit this weekend. This was the scene at Hitsville USA. Berry Gordy, the founder of Motown Records, supervised the Jackson 5 and (according to the Motown Museum website)

"...helped turn them into overnight superstars with a non-stop series of smashes that commenced in 1969 with the unstoppable “I Want You Back” (written by Gordy and three collaborators under the imposing handle of The Corporation) and continued with the equally relentless “ABC” and “The Love You Save” the following year.....

"...All 17 of the J5's non-Yuletide singles for Motown placed in the R&B Top Ten, and they even had their own cartoon series on ABC-TV–an honor previously bestowed on the Beatles. They departed Motown in 1976 except for Jermaine, who had married Berry’s daughter, their superstardom universally recognized thanks to their astonishing run at Motown."
