    Born in 64 remember this being played on the radio... along with Freda Payne...and loved the Supremes and Four Tops...my parents were huge Motown and the like fans...my band mates don't even know I am a huge fan of this genre of music...Holland Dozier Holland were the greatest song writers on the planet IMHO...would love to do a HDH tribute act..,but I am an old white long haired Rocker...so I don't see anyone taking me seriously...but I will keep searching....maybe some day...

      I love how they are natural but still have on make up and are dancing and expressing emotions yet are classy and sexy and strong yet feminine. It was a great time to be part of the ADOS COMMUNITY. Everyone seem to understand the struggle and not out for quote "number one" ie their own selfish personal gain. There was a pride in being an "everyday people" Like the song by Sly and the family stone Sang. However there were also forces in play that would undermine all those COMMUNITY values mainly greed lack of education and all types of covert actions by the government to infiltrate and and undermine many of the community groups like the black panthers and the SCLC THE URBAN LEAGUE AND THE GENERAL TARGETING OF ADOS COMMUNITY WITH THE INFILTRATION OF DRUGS AND GANG VIOLENCE
