Question About Complete Motown Singles Volume 6

[Philles/Motown Gary]

I just noticed that my copy of the Complete Motown Singles Volume 6 does not have the extra sheet rubber cemented onto the back. All of the other sets in the series that I have in my collection have this extra sheet on the back. My copy of Volume 6 was purchased new about 2009 or so, but it was one of those that miraculously showed up after the set had been unavailable for a while.

Did the earlier copies of Complete Motown Singles Volume 6 have the extra sheet stuck to the back? I checked with my daughter, who also has a copy of Volume 6, and hers does not have the extra sheet either. However, her copy was purchased about the same time as mine and from the same source, the Tower Records website.

NothingButSoul, you're in luck -- there's nothing missing from your copy of The Complete Motown Singles [[Vol. 6). The semi-loose sheet on the back of The Complete Motown Singles boxed-set CD series didn't start until Vol. 7. [[I have the entire series and I double-checked to verify.) The only problem that you might encounter with Vol. 6 is that, for the cross-referencing pages in the back which designate Artist Name, Song Title, and Record Label/Record # and the corresponding CD Disc/Track # that they can be found on, some of the cross-references are wrong. I checked each and every cross-reference for Disc/Track # individually, and I had to cross out the errors and hand-write them in. There was a cross-referencing error on a couple of other volumes as well which needed to be manually corrected.

I was always afraid that the lightly-rubber-glued sheet on the back of Vols. 7-12B might come loose or get ripped. To compensate for this, I carefully took the page completely off. Then, using two-sided Scotch Tape, I taped the loose page inside the back cover which keeps it protected and which looks great!

I hope this helps. - Gary
