Duke 🕊🌹🎶🎤
R.i.p Duke !!!
Sad news that Duke died yesterday. Great memories, soundtrack of my youth. RIP Duke and thanks.
Hope there will be a movie about the wonderful Four one day. RIP to Levi, Duke, Obi,Larry.
Thank You!
The beginning said a mailman in Florida found one of the victims...these were all in Michigan, not Florida.
there is another looking into this...into the island off of the lake. The Horrors of Fox Island with Colin Browen. The Nick Bryant Podcast they have the same document you have showing the people involved..Thnk you
Thanks
One of the greatest respectful groups of the Motown family. I don't care who had addictions you couldn't tell because those Brothers stayed together until the end💞💞💞💞🙏🏽🙏🏾
Excellent information
Is this the best idea? Should we not be led by the best among us?
My dad was a police officer in Madison Heights Michigan back when this all happened. He worked on a task force trying to find Kristine. I was still in elementary school, I'll never forget seeing my dad crying on the couch as we heard the sad news on TV of Kristine's body being found. It broke his heart, I don't think I fully understood then, I do now. My dad went to Heaven 9 years ago, I just bet that Jesus took Kristine over to my dad so he could see her alive and happy. I can picture a big smile in my dad's face as wrapped his arms around her.
How about seeing a Detroit of EQUITY!!!!
AND didn't detroit history repeat itself...
"Jewish people" DIDN'T begin to sell their homes to African american community until mid-late 1960's. Speak TRUTH.
From Dublin, GA home of Mr. Harvard. Thank you.
I bought the book as soon as I heard about it. An amazing insight into the lives of 4 super-talented men who had a united vision, passion and determination. They didnt have things easy but they supported one another, and their bond and belief paid off. They've left an incredible legacy. The "new" line-up is great but my heart will always be firmly with Levi, Larry, Duke and Obie. Thank you all - you've given me great pleasure for 60yrs. ❤
I would love to find an autograph copy of this book. Does anyone know how to find one??
Hands down it was Bush
My aunt lived across the street from Elmwood cemetery. She always spoke about being from black bottom. My grandmother and dad had to move because of the freeway. He would take my brother’s by where his home was. He and my uncles worked in Paradise Valley
When will there be a Blvd named after Coleman Young?
Thank you so much. Terrific speaker, just delightful personality and great knowledge and enthusiasm. The soloists gave beautiful pure performances.
Stellar event🤎🖤✨🙌🏾🙌🏿✨
How on earth did i miss this event? Such a great performance.🙌🏾🙌🏿🤎🖤✨
Wonderful program! Thank-you!😊
I was 6 when Coleman Young was elected Mayor, and this has filled in a lot of missing information for me. Excellent.
Must have seen The Tops more than a dozen times in different parts of the country . They were the greatest .
I wonder why they don't play much contemporary jazz
I was blessed to have met Mr Harvard in the early 1980's when I went to Focus Hope Machinist Training Institute. Mr Harvard taught the Math class. I'd swear he was twice as smart as I was, and he was 70 Years old at the time! We all loved him, he was a remarkable source of knowledge.
Thank you for sharing Mr. Harvard's legacy with us! He was our Shop Theory teacher at Focus:Hope's first Skilled Machinist Training Program class in November 1981!❤
I preferred the Four Tops to the Temptations...Levi Stubbs was a beast
Him and Mary Wilson were lovers when he was married.
Mary Wilson slept with a lot of married men. She also slept with Tom Jones and Steve McQueen.
Has anyone ever considered that a female helping the male perpetrators in this case was involved??? How else do you explain the taking of the female children, the fact that they were not sexually assaulted and that the one young girl was murdered in exactly the way her nightmares predicted. That one bit alone speaks to a specific type of sick individual! The individual clearly got a thrill out of the psychological torture of these children. Then there is the whole bathing ritual, last meal ritual and the keeping of the children. I think it is quite possible some sick female helping these monsters decided to join in?? 🤔 I would be interested in knowing who the witnesses was who gave that very detailed description of the man talking to the last victim. These types of individuals love to insert themselves into the case. 🤔 Cheers
I bet my mother used to study there She was born in 1948

Love how Duke Fakir when speaking of Levi Stubbs he speaks of him in the present.
