Motown Grooves with 50th Anniversary “mo-casts” on iTunes

The Motown label is celebrating half a century of hits with a free podcast series on iTunes.

Dubbed “mo-casts,” they’re behind-the scenes interviews with pop greats including Diana Ross, Stevie Wonder, the Temptations and the Four Tops.

The first 15 episodes include the Anatomy of a Hit: “Love Hangover,” Stevie Wonder in a rare archive interview and hip-hop artist Q-tip on his favorite Motown hits.

The debut mo-cast offers a short but interesting conversation with Smokey Robinson, who talks about his early days, including how they used to literally grab passersby from the street to test potential hits.  At just over seven minutes, it won’t help your commute much but will keep your feet tapping.

The podcasts were launched as part of year-long 50th Motown celebrations.
