Funny how links in music occur. I recently worked a Snoop Dog show up here in Kanada and was struck by the very connection you speak of. His horn section and drummer and keys etc, in other words a real band were all over Motown and brought a cool vibe to his otherwise pointless stoned shenanigans. It sounded like New Motown. Mixing genres like that can be quite interesting, thus the link to those Girl Groups of the 60's and whoever wrote produced and arranged and played them.
