  Motown: Celebrating 50 years of American popular music

  摩城唱片庆祝美国流行音乐50周年

  VOICE ONE:

  Welcome to THIS IS AMERICA in VOA Special English. I'm Faith Lapidus.

  VOICE TWO:

  And I'm Doug Johnson. American popular music changed forever fifty years ago when Berry Gordy, Junior started a record company in Detroit, Michigan.

  It grew to become one of the most successful black-owned businesses in the United States. This week on our program, we explore the music of Motown.

  (MUSIC)

  VOICE ONE:

  That was Universal Motown artist Akon singing the title song from his latest album, "Freedom." The company is now part of the Universal Music Group with headquarters in New York City.

  It observed Motown's fiftieth anniversary in January with ceremonies at the Motown Historical Museum in Detroit. The museum includes the original apartment and recording studio that Berry Gordy called "Hitsville, USA."

  The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, Ohio is celebrating the record company's anniversary all year with a new exhibit "Motown: The Sound of Young America Turns Fifty." It is displaying instruments, clothing, programs, recordings and other objects from Motown's many successful singers and groups.
