United Sound Systems is a recording studio in Detroit, Michigan, United States.〔(Walker, Marlon A. "I-94 expansion threatens recording studio where Motown sound got its start," Detroit Free Press, July 3, 2013. )〕 Many popular music artists over the last seventy years have recorded there, including blues musicians like John Lee Hooker (he recorded "Boogie Chillen'" there), and funk bands like Funkadelic. The studio was also the site of the first recording for Berry Gordy's Tamla label in 1959, starting what would become Motown Records. The building is threatened by a planned highway service drive expansion by the Michigan Department of Transportation.〔(Michigan Department of Transportation, "Final Environmental Impact Statement, 2014." )〕 The studio was bought in 2009 and is currently being reopened.〔(Hoerler, Eli DiSante. "Detroit's United Sound Systems Studio Slowly Gets Its Groove Back," ''Deadline Detroit'', February 10, 2014 )〕 ==History== There is currently a debate within collector forums and Detroit music historians about the origins of USS. The issues revolve around when the first Cass location for the studio began and when it moved to the current location at 5840 Second Avenue. Regardless, it was listed at the current Second Avenue location by 1943. In March, according to the Detroit News reported that: "M-DOT spokesman Rob Morosi said they () met with Scott last summer, and had “a good conversation” about various options on the table. One of those options, he confirms, would be moving the studio from its location on Second at Antoinette. “We’re waiting to hear back from them,” Morosi said Monday. (Scott says she’s exploring her options, but moving the large house and back studio is not what she favors.)" Later in March, the AP reported that the Detroit City Council "will refer the United Sound Systems Recording Studio matter to a historic designation advisory board for study." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「United Sound Systems」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
