Three out of four of all Motown acts played here back in soul's golden era. But there's so much more history to this fantastic building.  A real treasure trove of pics too. Great stuff.

The photos here relay the splendour of the renovations and how it looks today. Imagine queuing to see  a Motortown Revue in these surroundings.

That's brilliant Dave, thanks for posting. What a story and what a gorgeous building! I like the description  "tasteful blend of Hindoo and Burmese styles," - there was me thinking it looked a bit art deco / nouveau.....
