We'll need to get these books listed on the 313 site/FAQ...  in addition to the 
already mentioned (ultimate D-techno backgrounder book):  Techno Rebels.  I 
kind of consider that required homework for those new to the list anyway  :)

thanks,
Matt MacQueen

Here's the details on that one for all those interested:

Before Motown: A History of Jazz in Detroit, 1920-60, (2001). Lars Bjorn
        w/Jim Gallert.

Check these as well, especially the first one:

Dancing in the Street: Motown and the Cultural Politics of Detroit,
        (2000). Suzanne E. Smith.

One Nation Under a Groove: Motown and American Culture, (1995). Gerald L.
        Early.
