Bristolian Adam White, who shared his photograph of the Clifton Record Shop, from which he ran a mail-order Motown record service and newsletter, attended the 1965 gig. “It changed my world – I had never heard music like it” Adam says. “By the time the tour came to Bristol, I was a fully signed-up member of the Motown fan club. I first heard Motown records in 1963 and it changed my world – I had never heard music like it. I was absolutely obsessed – they meant everything to me.
