Dancin' in the Street (1987) - full transcript

(crowd cheering)

- [Narrator] They heyday
of the Detroit Sound,

epitomized by the chart
dominance of Motown Records,

has left a lasting
legacy on American music

and in the hearts of audiences worldwide.

Chart topping recordings by
performers and songwriters

such as Smokey Robinson,
Holland-Dozier-Holland,

Marvin Gaye, Mary Wells,
Martha Reeves, The Supremes,

and The Temptations were
all instrumental in creating

and maintaining Motown's
slogan "Hitsville USA".

In 1987, 28 years after Berry
Gordy founded Motown Records,



four of Motown's original
stars came together

to celebrate the Motown Sound.

"Dancing in the Street"
captures this remarkable event.

It is the last taped
concert where Mary Wells,

Martha Reeves, Eddie Kendricks,

and David Ruffin shared the same stage.

Long live the spirit
of the Motortown Revue.

(crowd cheering)

(upbeat music)

- How you doing?

We're here to celebrate a phenomenon.

This is something that
is gonna last forever.

Between Martha Reeves,

David Ruffin,



Mary Wells,

and Eddie Kendricks, between all of them,

this show on this stage has
had over 100 hit records.

(crowd cheering)

Are you ready to dance in the street?

(crowd cheering)

Right now, ladies and gentlemen,

without further ado, can
we have a great big hand

for the first lady of the
Detroit Sound, Miss Mary Wells!

- How's everybody doing out there?

Anybody remember the '50s?

(crowd cheering)

Those were they days that we had dreams

and visions of things
we wanted to do in life.

But before we go back, let's get together

and give one of the Womack Brothers,

my better half Curtis Womack,

a great big round of applause.

(crowd cheering)

Curtis Womack.

Going back to that time of Saul Records,

the only entertainer that I
ever knew that had a successful

record company was the
late great Sam Cooke.

- Then came the long, cold winter months.

Anybody know about the
long, cold winter months?

(crowd cheering)

Is everybody out there from Los Angeles?

(crowd cheering)

Let me tell you about the
long, cold winter months.

In Detroit, there was times
we couldn't even drive a car

through the snow so we
bought a lot of records

and most of the record sales come

from the East Coast because
we never can go outside.

And we dreamed and dreamed
and pushed and pushed

and made a lot of dreams come true.

There was one group that I loved so much

that inspired me a lot that came out

with a calypso group by the name

of Jerry Butler and the Impressions.

(crowd cheering)

Now y'all got to sing this one, come on.

I said, "Then came the '60s."

(crowd cheering)

Let me know y'all with now, come on.

And the people that we just
did helped pave the way

for artists like myself.

They came up with a calypso group.

And maybe I'm from the church,

the only thing I know how
to sing was about God.

So when I couldn't think of an ad lib,

I simply start humming and
then I did a little yodel

and it got me a Top 10 record

and I started off just like this.

♪ Whoa, oh, oh, oh ♪

♪ Whoa, oh, oh, oh ♪

♪ Whoa, oh, oh, oh ♪

♪ Whoa, oh, oh, oh ♪

(crowd cheering)

The year 1964 going into
'65 was my biggest year

in show business.

And like all of us who have dreams,

I mean, I worked like
mad to get what I got

and I'm still striving.

At the age of 15 to the
age of 21 I got my dream

and that was becoming a standard act.

I call this song the cream of my crop.

(crowd cheering)

to help me sing this.

(crowd cheering)

Are you feeling all right?

I don't want you to sit down.

This is a very emotional part of our act.

'Cause behind every end
there's a beginning.

Everybody wants to know about Motown.

Motown was first founded in 1959.

At the age of 15, I was the only artist

on that label for almost two years.

And coming from the heart
and the soul of the people,

the American people, which
is the earth of land,

I wrote this song.

Y'all just laughing, but momma enjoyed us.

We had chicken and the preacher came over

had a good time that day.

And still, Holland-Dozier-Holland
gave me a song.

It went very much like that.

And every time I sing this song,

I think about being three years old

in my grandfather's church.

We'd like to slow this down and do my

very first recording on the Gordy label.

This was not a big seller.

As a matter of fact, there
were only three copies sold.

Rosalind Ashford bought one,

Annette Beard bought the other.

And you know, I had to have
a copy of this record myself.

This is our first attempt
to record at Motown.

I can remember my knees shaking

and Mickey Stevenson
worried if I could do that

as well as I typed.

We'd like to do it for you.
