One thing is for sure,i can hear Ashford and Simpson,in the backgound,on Tear It On Down.
-
I was wondering about the tracklist for this edition.
Were have been the following been released yet, or are they unreleased:
- no one there [[alternate extended version)
- bless you [[alternate extended version)
and aren't the following songs from the "Natural Resources-sessions":
- Earthquake [[rec. Jan. 1970)
- Build Your Love On A Strong Foundation [[rec. June 1970)
- Where Was I [[When Love Came By) [[re. June 1970)
or am I wrong???
Ben
-
Per release in UK as just Martha Reeves was Motown going to promote her as a solo artist if she hadn't left for MCA?
-
For me, this was their best album. Benjamin does not get enough love. I like that song very much and Take A Look is a good one also. It was this album that woke me up to how good a singer Martha is.

Just as a matter of interest, and by way of comparison, the German fella who produced unofficial [[but beautiful) releases on several artists [[and as I understand it lost his liberty as a result) also made expanded releases on most, if not all, Martha & The Vandellas albums. A couple are on Discogs but there are more, and occasionally pop up for sale.
One of those unofficial releases is the "Black Magic" expanded which was a one disc item since the album was only in stereo in the first place. I think it has been discussed elsewhere on the forum but anyway here it is:
