The Beatles were huge. And the first thing they said when you interviewed them, 'Oh yeah, we grew up on Motown.'..They were the first white act to admit they grew up listening to black music.
I really haven't strayed too far, musically, from my roots
People still look at Michael Jackson as being a Motown artist.

Once you're a Motown artist, you're always a Motown artist
You are most certainly the inspiration for all of today's rock 'n' roll guitarists. Your music is timeless.
