I’ve really been enjoying this track from Blinky’s Heart Full of Soul Motown Anthology. Very funky :D

I agree booty. Perhaps the set will be released digitally in some way, where the albums would be available separately.

Good to hear nativeNY! And thank you. "Back In Time" is one of my favourites too, but I'm a huge Back to the Future fan, so I’m not exactly impartial. :D

...

Isn't Diddy the guy whose had about 26 different names? :p

I don’t know much about him but I do like this song which he is apparently on [alongside Faith Evans, who I do like!]…

Hi everyone, I thought I’d make a thread about a band who are actually one of my favourites, Huey Lewis & The News. Although they made many an 80s classic, in most of their music you can hear their...

Also, I’m not sure what to make of the line "I guess that they need some more variety"… other than it makes me laugh… like it’s some sort of sex pick ‘n’ mix ! :p

Oh Boogie, you’re like a goldmine of new Miracles info! :cool: I don’t know what to make of that at all. Perhaps Billy didn’t feel confident in his writing abilities until album number 4. :p

It’s...

This sounds like an interesting but quite a sad read.

Does she talk about Smokey in the Marvelettes' Motown era or in the years after? I know that he had a drug problem in the 80s at least.

This is totally fantastic! :cool:

Looks like a great set. Very interested in hearing the unreleased Motown tracks!! :D

I say keep both! :p Both went down very well when I saw Diana in the O2.

I’ve said it before but "If The World Just Danced" is really a great song.

Aw, that’s such a cute picture. I know exactly how you feel carlo and I think all of your points are both valid and accurate. :)

I imagine that for many, "Ebony and Ivory" might represent the corny eighties Stevie… but his other and much less well-known collaboration with Paul McCartney, "What's That You're Doing", is pure...

As brilliant as he is, Stevie has a tendency to make a really sappy song, be that in the 70s, 80s or 90s. I personally find "You Are The Sunshine Of My Life" quite boring and sappy… much in the same...

I think Chuck's Motown recordings are fantastic and pretty much on par with what other artists at the label were releasing at the time. It’s a shame he didn’t have more success with it.

His...

I totally agree :D

GC Cameron would have been an great one! He copied Smokey's voice down to a T on "Don’t Wanna Play Pajama Games" :cool:

Probably my least favourite performance of all the songs she did at the O2. It just doesn’t work without the strings :p

I went to see Diana at the O2 on Friday. I thought she was bloody great. Not perfect, but she is 78. It was a great show :cool:

The highlights for me were "Upside Down", "You Cant Hurry Love" and...

In my opinion this is the best track Motorcity ever put out. I'd even say its better than any of Frances' Motown recordings, as much as I love "Keep On Lovin' Me" :cool:

...

Instrumental-wise, this is among the best Motorcity songs! I didn’t know that some of the tracks had been re-recorded in 1995, but it was clearly worth doing!! :)

I think the Motorcity project was...

I'd never heard this before now… probably because I don’t have the Motown Sings Motown Treasures set, which I need to get immediately! Great version of an awesome song :D

Happy Birthday Brenda! My new favourite of yours is "I'll Be Alright"… here it is, complete with this awesome video… :cool:

Interesting… quite a strange choice for a remix.

Eddie does sound quite different on it, although he is still audible. Generally I think it’s quite hard to remix a slow ballad like this, so…! :D

I just watched this and it was bloody amazing!! :D
