Where Did Our Love Go? chronicles the rise & fall of Motown Records while emphasizing the role of its dynamic founder, Berry Gordy Jr. First published in 1986, this classic work includes a new preface by Nelson George that identifies Motown’s influence on young recorders & music moguls of today, including R. Kelly, D’Angelo, Sean Combs, & Russell Simmons.

Gordy’s uncanny instinct for finding extraordinary talent--whether performers, songwriters, musicians, or producers--yielded popular artists who include the Supremes, the Jackson Five, Smokey Robinson, the Miracles, the Temptations, Marvin Gaye, the Four Tops, & Stevie Wonder. Not shy about depicting Gordy’s sometimes manipulative & complex relationships with his artists, George reveals the inner workings of the music business & insightful material on the musicians who backed these stars. The large cache of resulting Motown melodies is still alive in commercials, movies, TV programs, & personal iPods today.
