Detroit A Go Go photos - 1

I'm back from a very enjoyable trip to Detroit A Go Go and here's the first batch of music photos from the trip.
The first evening we went to the Northern Lights Lounge where Dennis Coffey has a regular Tuesday gig. Dennis also took part in a Motown panel discussion later in the weekend.
Appearing with Dennis was Lady Champagne, who attended all of the Detroit A Go Go shows I think.
There was a meet and greet at the Hotel St Regis on the Wednesday where one of the singers was Beth Griffith-Manley, who was a contestant on The Voice TV show.
Also singing was the raunchy Ms Cubie.
Making a surprise appearance here is sixties soul singer Rose Battiste.
Here's one of me with Beth.
The first night of Detroit A Go Go kicked off with a number from the Ladeez, who provided terrific backing vocals through all four shows.
Here are The Professionals.
Sadly singing just one number, this is Jimmy Scott.
These are the Dynamics.
Here we have Willie Jones.
Hosting the show and closing it vocally here is Spyder Turner.
After the show we went to the Raven Lounge blues bar, where Harmonica Shah was excellent.
Also making a good impression was Michelle Varell (?)
Another decent singer was Ray Robinson.
Here's a shot of the exterior of the Raven Lounge.
No trip to Detroit is complete without a visit to the Motown Museum. Here are trombonist Paul Riser with Jackie Hicks and Louvain Demps of the Andantes.
Here's one of me outside the museum.
Finally in this set of photos here are the Fantastic Four at the signing session for their new single 'Can't Stop Looking For My Baby'.
