I searched for some mentions of the Motown Remixed CDs and couldn't seem to find any here. I enjoyed both of them and I just went to Amazon to see if there was any discussion of a vol 3 and based on the reviews I may be the only person who liked vol 2! I actually liked it more than vol 1...it had some serious low points but I still play a few of its tracks to this day.
I suppose it's more work to put together for Motown than to slap a few Supremes songs together and put out the 897th version of their Greatest Hits, but seeing more original/unusual releases from them would be great! I think there really is a market for it...the remix of the Tempts' Power from the Blackberry commercial was so well received they commissioned a full-length version and put it on the Tempts' latest hits anthology. No reason why that couldn't happen again on a larger scale if Motown spends a little time finding some quality remixers, and maybe nixing the CD "themes" so they don't have to limit themselves...
