No.

Motown Records were not even a dot on the map. Starting in Jan 1959 Tamla was the first label, with Motown label following in Sept. 1959. Though Jobete Publishing was starting to get known.

The next label introduced in Jan-61 was the short lived 'Miracle' label, who's slogan was "If it's a hit, it's a Miracle" only lasted 10 months, before the Gordy namesake label was created.
