The four tops had Levi stubbs for their lead singer one of the best vocalists of all time all though Marvin was a really close second and wrote some brilliant songs

What about Aretha Franklin

Believe it or not, I don't think that the late Ms. Franklin recorded for Motown
I believe her record label was Atlantic.

I picked The Temptations; 70% similar. Surprised they’re only second to The Supremes. Thought Marvin Gaye would have been higher.

It was between The Temptations and the Four Tops and went with Temps and thought the Tops would have been higher. Back about 1998 there was a great tv movie about The Temptations, it comes around every now and then on the cable channels.

How come Al Green didn’t even make the list ? He was a MoTown artist too right, or am I wrong ?????

Al green was great, but he recorded for a label called 'Hi'.

I did not know that.
We were in the Nashville area on vacation once and looked up the church where he preached. If it had been a Sunday, I would’ve loved to have attended.

He also had a moderate "first hit" called "Back Up Train" on the Hot Line label before signing with Hi...
