Just remembered to single versions of "Together We Can Make Such Sweet Music" US single by the Spinners and Marthas "Forget Me Not" that both had spoken parts in the bridge.

On occaision, particularly in the seventies, some album tracks were released as singles with additiional instrumentation, in some cases changing the sound quite significantly.
Examples include ...

Yes, "Somethings Happening" is a great track. I always liked "I'm So Glad It's Twilight Time" by the girls as well. In fact, the Anthology collection is a great Cd release and contained some great...

I always believed that Jamerson played on "You Dont Have To Be A Star" by Maralyn Macoo & Billy Davis Jr after he left Motown but on listening again I'm not so sure it is him. Can anyone confirm.

Great analysis of a show. It brought back memories of a fantastic show and was probably the event that sealed Diana as my favourite artist of all time. I saw her when the show toured the UK in...

T always wanted this album but was never able to find a copy here in the UK. Is it still available on CD.

Thinking about it, I must have bought the album in 1975 as the Temptations tour was to promote "A Song For You".

I bought this album from Woolworths in Manchester in 1973 and it coinsided with their recent appearance at the Fair Trade Hall that same year. I realised than that it wasn't available in the UK. I...

Thanks for that, just cancelled with Play.com [[£10.99) and reordered with HMV [[£8.99). Every little bit help !!

Great interview to read. I saw the Spinners live in England when they toured with the Four Tops in the Seventies. Although they had moved to Atlantic by then, I remember them doing quite a few of...

Hope this album dosn't signal an end of Ron's association with the Temptations. I recently purchased their "Still Here" album and was realy impressed with the high quality of the tracks and vocals,...

One track I always loved by Diana was "In Your Arms" from the "Silk Electric" album. Her vocals had a most hypnotic feel about them and I often wondered if it was actually Diane singing in the...

Reading the thread about tracks on Diana 76 extended reminded me of the "Thank God It's Friday" album. I always thought that "Livin, Lovin and Giving" would have been better suited to Thelma Houston...

Wish they would re-issue the "This is The Story" box set. Been trying to get this for a couple of years now. Although some sites still advertise it, it isn't availabe when you place an order. So...

Saw Bubba when he appeared with Gladys on her British tour last year. He was really entertaining and a good singer too. Great to see such a close brother/sister relationship between these two.

Some more Vandellas - This is Voncielle Fagget and Patty Howard who I met with Martha in 1978 in Manchester, England.

I agree, this is a great album and as strong as the previous 2 releases. Always loved "The Bigger You Love" from hearing the Bobby Taylor version and then the later version by Jermaine Jackson. Any...

I ordered on 10th October - Dispatch date is 29th Jan, Delivery 1st to 4th Feb. Didn't realise this was to be the UK release.

Funnily enough, I heard "Mashed Potato Time" for the first time on my IPod and immediately thought it was a copy of "Please Mr Postman", even down to the background singing. I wondered who was...

Totally agree about the difficulty in reading the text on pink background, I gave up which is disappointing as I usually enjoy reading the track details. I thought this let the whole packaging down...

In the Barry White box set - 'Unlimited', "It may be Winter Outside" is acknowledged as a tribute to the Supremes. I always recognised the similarity to the two tracks but never begrudged Love...

Mine arrived yesterday from Play.com - £8.99 still in stock.

Never expected any Motown Christmas albums in this list but always considered Phil Spectre's Christmas album the best ever and it still sells by the bucket loan at this time of year. Wonder what the...

I think the producers used the Andantes with the Tops to create a totally different sound from the other male groups at the time like the Temps, Spinners and Contours. I always loved the Tops sound...

Just bought the Caston & Majors album for £8.99 on Ebay, looking forward to hearing it. Always loved Child Of Love and bought it when released here in the UK. Was very surprised this was not a bigger...
