Just in case it hasn't been posted before [[search proved fruitless) - here's Sister's Love with "Mr Fix It Man". Saw them with The Jackson 5 November 1972.

A rare and enjoyable video, mystery. It's a shame there are so few videos available of Sisters Love. Some of their Motown tracks were actually quite hip & hot, although I think they might have had more success had they been signed to Atlantic or Stax.

There's a definite Stax feel to this one - perhaps it should have been released on Weed.

Yes Indeed; "Mr. Fix It Man" by Sisters Love does have a Stax/Southern Soul vibe to it [and putting out on the 'one shot' Weed imprint would not have helped the song do any better than it did on MoWest-LOL]. Thanks for posting the video.

PS: Almost forgot the trademark that Motown used for their Weed label; definitely influenced by the one Stax began using in 1968.

There are still several Motown and A&M tracks that were never released.

Judging by the lack of interest in this thread it might be best if any unreleased tracks stay in the vaults.

Isn't that what we all suspect Universal must have said, about all things Motown ???

Not a great number, but still around ten Motown tracks.

The attachment doesn't seem to work for me.

Agreed but only last year the Sisters Love "With Love" album was re-released in Japan.
