Motown Sound Panel - ASMAC Luncheon November 2007

The American Society of Music arrangers & Composers presented a panel discussion, “The Sound of Motown, from Detroit to Los Angeles” at its monthly luncheon, November 14 at Catalina’s in Hollywood. Keyboardist, composer, and producer Clarence McDonald moderated the panel that included Marvin Augustus, David Blumberg, Sylvester Rivers, and Don Peake. This session was a follow-up to last summer’s ASMAC arranging workshop with Paul Riser (see July 2007 “Overture”). Because the Motown sound has had a dramatic impact on American popular music, it is fascinating to hear the stories of the individual musicians who were an integral part of that famed organization.
