color=#0000ff>Assuming you meant "Motown", I'd suggest you watch "Standing in
the Shadows of Motown", a documentary about the backup musicians who created
that wonderful sound. From their descriptions of the early days, I
wonder whether the pianos were even tuned for sessions.... It might also
give you some leads to who might have the answers to your
questions.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

if you haven't seen it, check out "Buena Vista Social Club" for more marvelous
music on poorly maintained pianos, particularly the playing of Rubén
González.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

Does anyone know of any tuners that tuned for Mowtown? How can I find out
what tuners were working on that area in that time? I wanna know if they
tuned in ET, because things sound as if its NOT ET on ALOT of the
recordings.</DIV>
