It's the first episode of our new series covering Motown's Number 1 hits! This is an amazing compilation that includes every single Motown song that ever hit number 1 on any chart. Obviously this is an amazing batch of songs, and we love talking about them. In this episode: a brief history of the label, much gushing over the amazing Motown sound, and many references to our 1980s childhoods. NOTE: Amanda misspoke badly when talking about the Miracles, who broke up in 1972, not 1992. The Miracles - Shop Around The Marvelettes - Please Mr. Postman The Contours - Do You Love Me Mary Wells - You Beat Me to the Punch Mary Wells -  Two Lovers The Miracles - You've Really Got a Hold on Me Stevie Wonder - Fingertips Cohosts: Rich Bunnell, Phil Maddox, Amanda Rodgers Get early access to bonus episodes! https://www.patreon.com/discordpodTheme music: "The Motown Song" by Rod Stewart feat. the TemptationsClosing credits music by Kenneth Kraylie, originally composed by Andy Partridge with new lyrics by Adam Smith of the Hector Collectorshttps://kennethkraylie.bandcamp.com/https://casinos.bandcamp.com/https://thehectorcollectors.bandcamp.com/
