Kid Rock is showing his affection for Detroit with a new video for a song on his new platinum-selling CD "Rock 'N Roll Jesus."

The boisterous Detroit-area rocker and bandmates on Wednesday visited the Motown Historical Museum to shoot footage of them performing the song "Roll On."

The museum is the former home of Motown Records.

This week a film crew also shot footage of Kid Rock driving around the city in a 1960s Lincoln Continental and visiting landmarks such as Tiger Stadium, the former home of the Detroit Tigers that is being demolished.

Kid Rock, whose real name is Robert J. Ritchie, says he "really wanted to capture the heart and soul of Detroit."

The video is expected to be released this fall.
