The Motown Sound Man ... Russ Terrana (Part Three)

Thanks again to Joe Klein for providing our readers with this interesting piece of musical history. Russ was in the eye of the hurricane during Motown's most creative and inventive period ... and today we delve a little bit deeper into this era. Hello again everyone! In Part Two of the story of Russ Terrana's earliest days as an enigmatic engineer, some of the more interesting events and recording sessions that occurred in the months prior to the purchase of GOLDEN WORLD STUDIO by Berry Gordy were told. Around the end of September, 1966, after months of rumors and a surprise, low-key visit to the studio by Berry Gordy about a month earlier, the announcement was made, and the takeover of Golden World by Motown was complete. Now, here's the third and final installment in the story of the earliest days in the brilliant career of RUSS TERRANA, the MOTOWN SOUND MAN! What a happy ending, indeed. On West Grand Boulevard in (1966)

Smithsonian acquires Parliament-Funkadelic Mothership. “I’m about to cry!” Parliament-Funkadelic frontman George Clinton said over the phone from his home in Tallahassee on Wednesday. “They’re taking the Mothership! They’re shipping it out! . . . But I’m glad it’s going to have a nice home there.” It isn’t the original Mothership. But by 1982, Parliament-Funkadelic’s towering debts forced the group’s Washington-based management company to trash the Mothership in a Prince George’s County scrap yard. An April 2010 Washington Post story about the Mothership’s disappearance sent the Smithsonian searching for it. Strait contacted Clinton’s management, and the bandleader eventually decided to donate the piece.

It’ll be somewhat of a homecoming. D'Angelo - I've Been Watching You - Paris Zénith 2012. Parliament Funkadelic - Gamin' On Ya - Mothership Connection - Houston 1976.

The group was originally based on Frankie Lymon & the Teenagers, but by the 1960s had developed a unique sound based on emerging styles of soul and funk music, with a notable penchant for bizarre lyrics.
