Great idea.
I took it to mean the Marvin Gaye Collection as it's outsized being as big as a 12 inch album rather than CD sized. The booklet would also have to be re-sized to fit.
At first glance it feels like it's all been done before [["It's The Same Old Song")- what with

** the Hear Music compilation [[Motown + Dusty's "When The Lovelight...
Nice shout out for the vinyl album there - mind you £23.00 - I used to think 30 bob was dear for an LP [[£1.50) - come to think of it it was probably 29s 11d.

The Temptations - "I Wish It Would Rain"
When I had the Gordon Staples vinyl album I remember I kept returning to the track "Toonie" - a cute little thing. But the album owes so much to the genius of Paul Riser.
Was it this same type of acetate Motown would play in the weekly meetings to decide what should be released? Would, say, the producer have sent over a copy tape to the Bell people for the purposes...

He was right, of course.
