French LP 'Introduction to the Tamla Motown Sound' TMLF 100 HC

[mem1320]

This 12-track LP is in a gatefold sleeve with the LP in one pocket. I recall that there was mention that this came with photos which are housed in the other pocket, although I do not have them. So, does anyone have the set of photos that came with this LP or, indeed, any other info especially date of release? The tracks are nothing out of the ordinary by Supremes, Temps, Velvelettes, Brenda, Martha, Tops, Kim, Earl Van Dyke, etc.

With Thanks,

Ray

I think I have this albumI but I can't remember for sure. I've had it for so many years along with others, as time goes on, I forget what I do have. The Velvelettes photo was my main concern and it features the line up of Annette Cal and Sandy. I think there is an information insert as well.

Thanks. If you get a chance to unearth the LP, could you perhaps upload the insert + photos.

I feel old now. I have both albums. The German pressing didn't come with photos.

I have neither of them but both pressings have different cover and here is the back cover of the German one :

That's it. The front cover has a really strong red marron colour. Hard to miss in a pile of albums.

Many thanks for your responses, guys. Just to add that there are b&w cover photos of various French Motown 45s and EPs on the inside flaps.

Any more offers re the scans of the photos and insert contained in the original French release?
