It’s a tall order, re-creating the sounds of Motown. That classic Detroit sound requires showmanship and synchronicity, not to mention vocal gymnastics and a fine-tuned harmonic balance. Hats off to Spectrum, then, for garnering such rave reviews. Spectrum began with six years in Las Vegas, stepping into the shoes of the Four Tops. Since then, it has branched out to cover the sounds of the Platters, the Temptations, Boyz 2 Men, you name it. In demand on Royal Caribbean cruise line and American tours, Spectrum is joining forces with the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra on Saturday, as part of the BPO Pops series. They promise all the great vocal hits, as well as a taste of that some-kind-of-wonderful Motown experience. Admission is $34.50 to $76.50. For info, visit
