There was a promo 8-track CD for The Supremes velvet pink box set. Would anyone know if there were similar promo CDs for box sets by The Temptations [['Emperors Of Soul'), Four Tops [['Fourever') and Miracles [['35th Anniversary')?

Best,

Ray

I only ever was sent the Supremes promo CD.

In London these was an official launch for the Diana Ross red box set, a nice touch on return to Hotel rooms the box set was on the pillow.

I have all four of the box sets mentioned. The only one that included the bonus CD was the Supremes one.

There was a promotional CD issued in 1994 [[Motown [[37463-1226-2) on The Temptations "Error Of Our Ways" [[Radio Edit/LP Version), which was one of the new tracks featured on the Emperors Of Soul Set.
