The month of June is famous for “June Gloom.” May and June together are usually the cloudiest months in coastal Southern California.

While we have fresh flowers each week at Garden of Palms we look forward to taking our decorations to the next level for Shavuot and bringing you fantastic programming as well! The month of June also includes Father’s Day! You know I love a good joke, so here’s one for Father’s Day: “I gave my father $100 and said, “Buy yourself something that will make your life easier.” So he went out and bought a present for my mother.” On behalf of all our staff, we want to wish all the fathers at Garden of Palms the Happiest Father’s Day!

Having played the instru- ment for, then, almost two decades, I thought that a novelist would not, could not, feature specialty instruments such as the C-melody sax if he did not play the horn himself. Once the saxophone had caught my attention, I noticed all sorts of uncommon references that seemed to confirm my hunch that Thomas Pynchon himself played the instrument: McClintic Sphere’s 4½ reed, the contra- bass sax of Against the Day, Gravity’s Rainbow’s Charlie Parker passage.

Audiences who didn’t know English knew the words to Motown songs. The Motortown Revue went to Europe. Fan letters in every language showed up at West Grand Boulevard. Behind the infectious beat, inroads had been made overseas as early as spring 1963, when Mr. Gordy, along with Motown executives Esther Gordy Edwards and Barney Ales, made unprecedented sales visits to Italy, Germany, Belgium, Holland, France, Norway, Sweden and England. Two years later EMI U.K. created the Tamla Motown imprint, an international umbrella for the company’s multi-label output.

During this time, songs like "Dancing in the Street" and "What's Going On?" targeted social issues in America and created a voice for African-American people through their messages. Events like the Mississippi Freedom Summer and Bloody Thursday inspired the artists at Motown to create these songs. Influenced by the cultural and social circumstances of the Civil Rights Movement, the musical output of Motown Records between 1959 and 1972 evolved from a sole focus on entertainment in popular culture to a focus on motivating social change through music.
