<P> Smokey Robinson said of Motown's cultural impact: </P> <P> Into the 1960s, I was still not of a frame of mind that we were not only making music, we were making history . But I did recognize the impact because acts were going all over the world at that time . I recognized the bridges that we crossed, the racial problems and the barriers that we broke down with music . I recognized that because I lived it . I would come to the South in the early days of Motown and the audiences would be segregated . Then they started to get the Motown music and we would go back and the audiences were integrated and the kids were dancing together and holding hands . </P> <P> In 1967 Berry Gordy purchased what is now known as Motown Mansion in Detroit's Boston - Edison Historic District as his home, leaving his previous home to his sister Anna and then husband Marvin Gaye (where photos for the cover of his album What's Going On were taken). In 1968, Gordy purchased the Donovan building on the corner of Woodward Avenue and Interstate 75, and moved Motown's Detroit offices there (the Donovan building was demolished in January 2006 to provide parking spaces for Super Bowl XL). In the same year Gordy purchased Golden World Records, and its recording studio became "Studio B" to Hitsville's "Studio A". </P> <P> In the United Kingdom, Motown's records were released on various labels: at first London (only the Miracles' "Shop Around" / "Who's Lovin' You" and "Ain't It Baby"), then Fontana ("Please Mr. Postman" by the Marvelettes was one of four) and then Oriole American ("Fingertips" by Little Stevie Wonder was one of many). In 1963, Motown signed with EMI's Stateside label ("Where Did Our Love Go" by the Supremes and "My Guy" by Mary Wells were Motown's first British top - 20 hits). Eventually EMI created the Tamla Motown label ("Stop! In the Name of Love" by the Supremes was the first Tamla Motown release in March 1965). </P>
