The Macho Male Motown SingerA bellow. A shout. A scream, a growl, a grunt. Each Motown singer below turned such sounds into music. Sometimes singing represented hard work, the sweat-inducing kind. Or an extension of a personality. Or the result of informal practices between bites of a sandwich. ;) In any case, instead of making our eardrums bleed, vocal volume and texture can create genuine, unmatched emotion when it comes from the right singers. Some of them appear here.
