Legendary Lee Canady: Berry Gordy & Michael Jackson - Hitsville USA & Motown Museum - 1959 & 1988
Since "My Pal Foot Foot," there has never been a better independently-produced music-related thing… UNTIL NOW!
Lee Canady helped START Motown in his own record store in Detroit many decades ago.
A man, named Berry Gordy, was there with Lee at the beginning of Motown.
Michael Jackson was a favorite of Lee's (when the Jackson 5 was still Mike's biggest export).

Lee Canady is an all-American man. Berry Gordy bought the house that became Hitsville USA in 1959, the same year Lee Canady started Monroe Music (later "Lee's Monroe Music" when Lee's boss left) with a Jewish lady from a rich New York family. Berry Gordy walked into Lee's record store and asked Lee advice on selling records, and Lee sold Berry's first albums. Berry personally invited Lee to the very first Motown concert. Oh, and Lee talks lots about Michael Jackson too. This video has it all!

Lee Canady was instrumental in the founding of Motown Records in 1959 just like Michael Jackson was instrumental in the founding of the Motown Museum in 1988.

——————————
Berry Gordy was the one Detroit needed to succeed in modern music, and Lee Canady helped Berry Gordy (at Berry's request) from the beginning of Motown (really, before the beginning in many ways).
Michael Jackson was someone Lee liked since the days of the Jackson 5 (I think the weird-era Michael might not have had Lee's full support)
