“Can’t Slow Down”

From Joe G – Can you tell me Motown’s biggest selling album of all time? Thank you.

Mr. Pop History – Ironically, it didn’t come from the 1960s or 1970’s, when Motown was at its best. It came with 1984’s “Can’t Slow Down” by Lionel Ritchie, selling more than 9 million copies.

Come back soon, as I answer, to the best of my knowledge, another one of your pop history/culture questions.
