A piece of Detroit music history is torn down to make way for parking for the upcoming Super Bowl. The Motown Center, which once housed the famous record label, had been abandoned for more than 30 years. When Motown left town, the company left behind a huge amount of memos and paperwork, often signed by Motown artists. In 2004, Randy Wilcox went inside the building and came away with some of those items. Wilcox posted many of the documents, along with pictures of the building, on his blog, DetroitFunk. Michele Norris talks with Wilcox about what he found.http://detroitfunk.com/

    For a moment I thought you meant they tore down the Hitsville USA house.
