Anyone have the specific recording dates for Gladys Knight No One Could Love You More or Jr Walker I Ain't Going Nowhere?
I've been out of the loop from the soul scene for a bit. I haven't got an LP player, I'm just interested in cd's. I thought it would be handy for people like me to have a centralised place where the...
Also, check http://twitter.com/#!/hiposelect. In July it was stated that more Marvelettes was planned so we'll get there eventually!
Agreed, although with the exception of In a Mellow Mood. All Temptations albums deserve expanded editions, but I echo several comments about With a Lot of Soul. I think that is Motown's best 60's...
If you want to know who I listen to more and who constantly blows me away its Ruffin. His solo stuff is astonishing; the Unreleased Albums, and his two 60's ones are amazing. He is the ONLY Motown...
Why so much BG bashing? Would this site even exist if it wasn't for the man? He made Motown what it was and put this group of young, talented black musicians at the top of the music industry. He made...
juicefree20 - couldn't have put it better myself [[although I am absolutely NOT applying that to 70's Motown, just so we're clear.) The Monitors are a case in point- if a group showed the performance...
My Ruffin cd's are my most played, most loved and most cherished. And even Vol.2 of the Motown Solo Albums, which is mostly 70's, but also contains what is probably the last unreleased Ruffin...
Any word on Stevie Wonder 60's albums, or are they not on the agenda anymore?
Interesting stuff, thanks for the replies [[and not ripping me to shreds!) To add just a little bit to the discussion, for me the distinction is between 'organic' sounds. I think 60's music sounds...
Kamasu_Jr; Is 70's Motown 'real' motown? I'm not wanting to have an argument at all, so please don't take me wrong here! In fact I'm just more interested in your reasons for being a completist even...
Paulo- couldn't agree more. Hip-O select are mroe than pleased with themselves for releasing 15-16 track solo Smokey stuff that [[a) was recorded under much better conditions than 60's music [[hence it...
Hadn't thought about Edwin Starr as a possibility- haven't we already got all of his 60's music on the Soul Master/25 Miles two-for-one, Ric-Tic Relics Vol. 1 and 2, Groovesville Vol 1 and 3, Soul...
Nothing wrong with being a completist, that's exactly what I mean about us soul fans. Companies are not going to excite a completist with isolated releases, as Hip-O are doing. Do it the Ace way-...
I think the thing with the Tammi collection, it was on its own, a really isolated release. Hearing about 'forthcoming' releases on Ace/Kent makes me buy even the ones I would not normally buy - [[a)...
Kamasu_Jr, ; true, they may be consistent money makers but I doubt Hip-O will ever release anymore new Temptations tracks or the kind of music which us over the pond want to hear. Motown 50 was a...
This is brilliant news, means I don't have to buy that Marginal cd with the Elgins. This is what I wanted to happen from the start- I purchased the Satintones set for this, even though in all honesty...
There are some very over-generalised and poorly researched comments being made here.
Take for example Tartare records, a venture between Collector's Choice and WB;...
I couldn't care less who gets backslapped for being culturally important, havin high-sales or for being flavour of the moment. I love soul music. The best soul music is from the sixties. It still...
You're What's Happening in the World Today. Most underrated Marvin song by a long distance and his best. Its got everything- the gospel, the motown sound, the production and man can you dance to it....
HAL I am truly truly scared.
If Universal has opened up thee vaults - how about Ric Tic, Groovesville etc or are these not available?
And I agree a Monitors set would be more than welcome.
Where's that purported Temptations Vol.2 DVD we were promised? And while we're at it, we keep getting told that there are no unreleased tracks, only to have one or two in every cellarful of motown....
Cheers theboyfromxtown, that clears it up. Splanky, its not the lyrics, but the music itself I was referring to.
The verses in both songs sound pretty similar. Anyone know which was released first? I know Stevie's track is 1967 [[credits Stevie, Cosby and Moy), I have Dorsey's Cynthia on Rev-Ola's release which...
