Thanks, Gary. I'm pleased The Originals lived up to expectation! One of the few Motown artists I didn't have a chance to see live.

Thanks, Gary. I'm pleased The Originals lived up to expectation! One of the few Motown artists I didn't have a chance to see live.
Thanks for your responses. As I thought, a tour was probably planned, but never happened.
I recently came across a promo sheet for the 30th June 1972 UK release of The Originals 'God Bless Whoever Sent You'. It states this was being released 'to tie in with their first British tour...
There is a series of US Motown jukebox EPs [[as well as others on different labels) all similar to this one with a small centre hole used in certain Seeburg jukeboxes. For a history and lists of...
Has anyone come across this Jukebox EP by Jimmy Ruffin? 6 tracks taken from his 'Top Ten' LP [[Soul 704). If so, is there a cover + jukebox tabs + mini-covers?
Best,
Ray
Thanks, Paul. Another of the COM5 tracks that's getting a lot of plays here is the wonderful Paul Williams led version of Smokey's 'Then' with Melvin's bass voice in one channel and the rest of the...
Paul -- Has it definitely been established that no vocal version of 'It's All Over' exists? Such a crying shame if not. The standout track on Vol 5 IMHO. Best, Ray
I'd love to have heard what the Holland boys and Lamont had in mind lyric-wise for 'It's All Over'. And what the Isleys' would have made of it. What a fabulous track!
Thanks for getting back to me. I kinda assumed you may have had them in a word/text format. I guess one laborious option would be to scan, magnify and re-type them! But I wouldn't mind betting there...
Hi Paul -- Having just received Volume 5 with its easy to read notes and looking back at the notes for the previous volumes, would it be at all possible to publish the notes [[and track listings) for...
Hi -- Could anyone tell please me any info on this group who had a couple of 45s on the Millennium label in 1977/78 including the excellent doo-wop styled 'Love Music'.
With Thanks,
Ray
Thanks, Grape. I've seen the discogs listing, but I was wondering if there is any info on the musicians who played on these tracks - there is no info on the sleeve. Having said that these are not...
Released in 1980 for H-D-H promotional purposes only, does anyone know the names of the musicians who played on any of these 37 tracks?

Does anyone know the names of the musicians who played on any of these 37 tracks?
Best,
Ray
Would this be because of poor sales of the first two volumes?
Would anyone know if there is likely to be a Volume 3 of this series?
Thanks.
Ray
Many thanks for your responses, guys. Just to add that there are b&w cover photos of various French Motown 45s and EPs on the inside flaps.
Any more offers re the scans of the photos and insert...
Thanks. If you get a chance to unearth the LP, could you perhaps upload the insert + photos.
This 12-track LP is in a gatefold sleeve with the LP in one pocket. I recall that there was mention that this came with photos which are housed in the other pocket, although I do not have them. So,...
What else are the girls holding in addition to a copy of the CD?
Ray
Thanks for your most helpful responses. It was bought at a UK auction and the description stated an 'unofficial' box set, which led me to beilieve it is indeed a boot. I picked it up out of sheer...
I have a box of 12 red vinyl all early Motown 45s containing the following:
Satintones x 6 [[Motown, Tamla)
Contours x 1 [[Motown)
Miracles x 2 [[Motown, Tamla)
Temptations x 1 [[Miracle)
Equadors...
Many thanks, Johnny.
Could anyone please post a comprehensive list of those US Motown 45s [[including Tamla/Gordy/Soul/VIP) from 1959-1972 that were released in a picture sleeve.
With Thanks,
Ray
