Edit ProfileCareer
Her purported five octave vocal range started her Motown career before Berry Gordy tried to make a name for her in the Rhythm & Blues/People’s market. She left Motown in 1965, and recorded two singles for T & L Records. In the late 1980s/early 1990s, Lands re-emerged and Ian Levine recorded her for his Motorcity label.
Liz Lands (and the Voices of Salvation) are featured on the side-B single of Martin Luther King Junior."s famous I Have a Dream speech, released on Gordy Records (G-7023), in 1968.
