Trivia: What was the name of the first label under Motown Records?
Miracle Records
Tamla Records
Gordy Records
Soul Records
The correct answer is Tamla Records
So why is this answer correct? : Berry Gordy Jr. originally wanted to name his business Tammy Records, after a Debbie Reynolds song. The name was already taken, so he changed it to Motown, but Tamla Records remained one of its most popular labels (though the evolution of the name to “Tamla” is unclear). The label’s last single, “Love Will Set You Free” by Smokey Robinson, was released in 1986.
