To be honest, in my opinions, it sounds more like that soothing, mellow HI Records sound to me, but in no way whatsoever is that a complaint, as it is still 1000% more digestible than many music of...

Actually reminds me more 1999, than 2019 or 2009, which is a GREAT thing, as that was the last great year, my opinion that is, when listening to new r&b music, back-to-back-to-back-to-back, out of a...
I believe it was Bruce Williamson, whom was the latter years performer of the David Ruffin roles, whenever the Tempts shows up on not just the concerts, but also Super Bowls, Grammys, and American...
I'd say I already have about maybe fifty percent of the tunes, as an owner of three kinds of "Greatest Hits" collections for the Supremes, and just as well an accumulator of Ultimate Collections,...
Official Motown / Universal release, or public domain release?
I do have a reissue of That Stubborn Kind Of Fellow in the Marvin Gaye, Volume 1 [[Univeral / Motown) CD set that had his albums on...
I could also go for sixties Stevie Wonder, if possible. Come on, Stevie Wonder!
Yeah, we all know, Stevie Wonder became Stevie Wonder out of his Music Of My Mind - beyond albums, and seemingly,...
Temptations, In A Mellow Mood, or Marvin Gaye, Hello Broadway.
Those records that eventually broke them and Motown into the Copa, and thus, the rest of the world, beyond the stages of either of...
My opinion, Country and Western, was great and respectable of the old Grand Ole Opry sense, as in as far as the genre began, up through the end of the sixties.
After that, Dolly Parton and Kenny...
I've always loved the cover too....when I've first discovered it on cassette, then CD, and now, vinyl...another nutty memory from it, was when I've shown it to some of my friends, they didn't even...
Where is "I Want You 'Round", "It's Got To Be A Miracle [[This Thing Called Love)", "Deed I Do", "Together", and "What Good Am I Without You"?
One thing I've loved about the charm about the...
No disrespects, but my first thought when seeing the title "Top 5 Most Iconic Motown Musicians", was James Jamerson, Benny Benjamin, and Earl Van Dyke.
To each their own, even as I LOVE the smooth suits and choreography of the David Ruffin years.
However, I remember back around 99', when I first heard "Stay" on the radio, and I played along with...
Oldays is a Public Domain label.
There has been times and agains, when wanting early albums of Miracles, Marvelettes, and Little Stevie Wonder on CD, when the easiest accessibles to find was the...
Wilson Pickett, In The Midnight Hour, 1987 American Soul Man version.
10. Mills Brothers
9. The Platters
8. The Staple Singers
7. Sly & The Family Stone
6. Parliament
5. Earth, Wind, And Fire
4. The Impressions
3. Four Tops
2. The Supremes
1. The Temptations
Personally, I still genuinely find it refreshing to see and hear Ron Tyson still with the Temptations, which he's now the official second longest-running Temptation, thirty six years!
Eddie Holland, "Leaving Here", 1963
Miracles, "I Gotta Dance To Keep From Crying", 1963
Mary Wells, "You Lost The Sweetest Boy", 1963
Supremes, "When The Lovelight Start Shining Through His Eyes",...
Okay, who was the Four Tops back in that performing?
Was it: Theo Peoples, Duke Fakir, Obie Benson, and Lawrence Payton Jr.?
I am sorry, but unless such a collection manages to reach 1963 and above, I truly believe that that is nothing more than an another public domain [[1962 - below) collection, without licensed...
Holy Cow! the Temptations' "For Lovers Only", signifying 1995, the lateness, or near lateness, of Melvin Franklin, and Junior Walker, as mentioned in his absence from the Motown Legends Tour.
Question on #7: Where was Herb Alpert?
As I understood, the main draw on that number, was Janet Jackson, but she gracefully allowed herself be more in the background, to give A&M's head man...
As someone who was slightly after that period, the first time I have happened to hear about the group, was on Unsung, as a group Teena Marie was on for a brief time, before she splitted, assumably...
Yes, "the nineties". I still remember back to Hammer's parachute pants, Janet's military-esque uniform, and seeing Michael as white before learning he was black. Then, my opinion, tons of bad music...
Okay, how about: Johnny Gill, Johnny Gill [[1990) 30th Anniversary Expanded Edition?
Yes, I know, the album in itself could still be found in used CD bins for cheap easily, but I'm talkin' a new...
7.99, I'd even gladly go for $9.99 a month, if it means ALL of Motown, 1959 - today, including: Motown, Tamla, Gordy, Soul, Melody, Workshop Jazz, V.I.P., Weed, Chisa, Black Forum, Rare Earth,...
