When Motown's distribution in Europe switched to RCA in the 80's, they started releasing US Gordy releases such as Rick James and DeBarge on a Gordy label as well [[but Tamla releases still came out...
Here is another one, could well be the inspiration for the Latin-tinged version Diana Ross now performs in concert.

Billy Preston's missing Motown albums have been released on all digital platforms. Not sure when, but I check once in a while and now they showed up as being available:
- Late At Night
- Fast...
It's basically them lipsynching to their Performance live album. I wish they had recorded a new concert.
I just realised it has been EIGHT years since the EE was released digitally and we still don't have a CD [[or vinyl) version! Shame on Universal!
The "R" seems off and she doesn't really sign her first and last name like that, it's always in one line.
There are always some fake autographs on Ebay, I should report them next time I see some.
Though I am happy to see this released I am surprised [[and disappointed) that it does not include the original 12" version of "red Hot" which is far superior to the album version or the new remix.
Does anyone know if and when this will be released outside of the USA? [[hopefully on blu ray like the TINA documentary.
Meanwhile Universal have issued a soundtrack album [[digital only) and have...
In their upcoming issue, UK [[rock) magazine UNCUT posted a review of "Thank You". They presumably had a review copy already as the proposed release date of the album was September of course.
This...
She performed the song well into the Eaten Alive tour so she must have loved it. It worked very well live, sounding pretty faithful to the album version. It was used to introduce several of the band...
What's the point on sitting on all those copyrights and possible releases? They are not making money this way and the longer they wait, the less money they will make. They should have released or...
Would love to hear a recording of the show as well!

Sorry, the day is February 21, 2021 but I can't edit the post title anymore. Pre-orders should be up soon on Amazon etc....
I understand that Universal weren't happy with this as they are illegal and have put an end to it. However, there is a demand for these titles that Universal can't or most likely won't fulfill....
I found this today, although it does not specifically mention Motown, it does mention a lot of other Universal labels.

Sorry to burst your bubble but "A Brand New Day" went to number one on both the Dutch and Belgian charts in 1979.
Any news on the expanded "Ross" 78 which was supposed to come out this year as well?
I love Billy's Motown albums who have been criminally ignored by Universal in the reissue deprtment unfortunately. Only the Billy Preston & Syreeta album came out on cd through soulmusic.com records...
Are the cd's silver pressed cd's or cd-r's? Thanks for answering :-)
It sounds like this was mixed recently, not like this is an original 70's mix. Maybe the album was never fully mixed and mastered until now. Not too sure I like this version compared with the slick...
Of course I realise a catalog cd by a veteran artist is not going to generate massive sales. However, I was just making a point that in this supposedly digital-only age, there is still a market for...
Adele's record-breaking sales over the past few days proves once and for all that cd's are NOT dead, contrary to what some people are trying to make us believe.

Very cool to see they ended the medley with one of Ms Ross' signature songs! :p
It would have helped if they had informed us a lossless download would become available soon... :-[[
