The Metro Detroit area and to a lesser degree, Michigan has birthed some if not much of the nation's most legendary and popular music by solo artists, bands and groups since @ least the early 60s, with the likes of ? Mark & The Mysterians, Motown, Aretha Franklin. Iggy and The Stooges, Frijid Pink, The Buoys, The Bob Seger System, The MC5, Stevie Wonder, Grand Funk RR, Ted Nugent & The Amboy Dukes, Alice Cooper, Brownsville Station, Madonna, Sponge, The Verve Pipe, ICP, Eminem, Kid Rock, and the White Stripes.


I may have missed a few, but it has been pretty much relentless.



Some of the above may or may not be to "everyone's" taste, but the Motor City and those who were birthed here has undeniably pumped out a LOT of music over the past half-century, and for that reason,I will never understand why the Rock & Roll HOF was chosen to be located in Cleveland? Yeah, the term "Rock and Roll" was apparently coined there by some DJ, but that city truly pales in comparison to Detroit in popular musical output, obviously...
