The concept of BLACK GOLD is to illustrate in song the evolution of Motown music to the current hits of mega star entertainers such as The Temptations, The Four Tops, Donna Summer, Lionel Ritchie, Lou Rawls, The Supremes, Barry White, Whitney Houston, Tina Turner and others. The early Motown songs are upbeat hand-clapping tunes about romance, love, friendship and that's what the show is all about: joy, hope, uplifting entertainment. The later numbers are love songs and about happier times. The musicality of some of the songs are uncomplicated but have meaningful lyrics. Perhaps that's why they became classic hits in a golden age of music. The underlying theme of the show is about coming together, loving one another, and helping make the world a better place. Uplifting music that touches your soul!
