Does anyone know where or how to get this CD that seems to be available only in Canada from their Walmart chain which will not mail it to the United States?
I have been watching eBay thinking it might appear there, but no dice.
Of course, I know that we have all of the tracks, but completists wants differing CDs, too! :-). Thanks in advance!!!!

Carlo, Markdesjardin and a few other Canadian members here may be able to help you.
It's puzzling that none of our many "regular" online CD vendors are selling this. I thought that maybe some SDF member may have seen it on a commercial site.Quote:

The CD cost $5.00 but various fees [[it's not in the local store, but has to be shipped) amount to $13 and change. I looked at this before and was pissed off at paying over $18.00 for something that cost $5.00. What a rip off.

Was this shipping to a Canadian address?Quote:

Good question, but here is the track listing. Also, I meant to note that this CD has been out since December 2016, thus triggering my curiosity that it has not appeared on eBay or any commercial site that I have found.Quote:

Ok the track listing leads me to believe that it is the Original Supremes. It sounds like a re-issue of the "Where Did Our Love Go?" album. Why the name change for this particular CD is a mystery to me as the original album was distributed throughout Canada.Quote:

There's another FLOs cd that has a nice photo of Jean, Mary, and Cindy on the cover.
There was one with a cover that had the famous Greatest Hits painting on it except with the heads of Scherrie, Lynda and Sundray. LOL!!!
Private message me if you still needn’t help with this! Would be glad to help. I live in Canada.
