Following the warm reception given to Kent's Finders Keepers: Motown Girls 1961-1967 collection, and in the spirit of equal opportunity, they felt it only right to ask Motown for permission to raid their master tape vault for tracks for a companion all-male set. The resulting Satisfaction Guaranteed! Motown Guys 1961-1969 includes some of the company's biggest stars the Miracles, Four Tops, Temptations and Marvin Gaye alongside talent such as Jr Walker, the Spinners, Edwin Starr, Jimmy Ruffin, Marv Johnson, Shorty Long and Bobby Taylor; and a couple of acts who have never had any of their Motown recordings issued before Johnny Bristol and the Quails. In all, 24 tracks by 24 artists. The Marvin Gaye, Temptations, Four Tops and Freddie Gorman titles were first released as downloads in 2013 but have never appeared on CD before [[or on vinyl, for that matter). The remaining tracks are previously unissued in any format. In other words, something for the Motown collector who has everything. Compilation and notes by Keith Hughes.

Too bad that title, "Satisfaction Guaranteed" wasn't the elusive "Satisfaction Guaranteed" recorded by Keith "Stacy Adams" Moss, originally slated for Harvey 122.
:D

#14 on the track list is interesting...I never knew Bruce Channel, who had a big hit on Smash label with "Hey Baby", recorded for Motown.

Bruce Channel's "You Make Me Happy" is basically "Hey Baby! " again. That and "Everybody's Angel" by Dorsey Burnette, are the only 2 Mel-O-dy C&W cuts to which I can even listen.
