Yes, I did mean ‘Ain’t Nothing Like The Real Thing’, my mistake this time!
Can anyone clarify the details of the alternate slower version of ‘Ain’t No Mountain High Enough’ by Marvin and Tammi. I had always believed that the alternate version was produced by Bristol and...
Do you have the track lists to Volumes 2 to 5, I’m sure I purchased a couple of these but just can’t find them.
I bought The ‘Last Time’ album when it was first released in 1975 and always considered it an okay ‘middling’ album, playing it only occasionally. It spawned two top 40 hits in the UK, the title...
Ive just watched the 1973 Royal Albert Hall performance of Diane Ross on YouTube. She was backed by The Devastating Affair and during the concert, Diana states she was about to release some songs...
I bought a number of Original Artist Karaoke CDs a few years ago, there were 17 in the set each containing 16 tracks, 8 with and 8 without lead vocals. The original backing tracks were used for the...
RIP Lamont Dozier, you will live forever through your music.
I actually preferred the Supremes/Tops version of Reach Out And Touch than the Diana Ross version but I think it was released as a single in the UK too close to the original and suffered from making...
Where in the show did she sing”When You Tell Me”. She didn’t include this when I saw here in Leeds last weeks which surprised me as its one of her biggest UK hits, having made number 2 twice, in 1991...
She’s excellent. The ‘sit down’ encore at Leeds was “It’s My Turn” which she sang without any backing vocals. It was incredible.
Yes, she certainly needs to dress up on the verses but she did apologise before she started the song, saying she might need some help as she hadn’t performed it much. Apology accepted.
Can anyone...
No, it was the third song in the set list, the first of the Supremes songs that followed MTTY, personally I think it should be replaced, never cared for that song.
No sign of her putting on weight at the Leeds concert last night. If she had put on weight, she’s certainly lost it in the 10 days since the Platinum performance. She looked fab.
Just got back from Leeds concert. After seeing her ‘shakey’ Jubilee performance I wasn’t expecting great things but she was incredible, from start to finish. I had promised to take my daughter to the...
As previously posted, its record of the week on BBC2, that will push the record together with the movie release.
Its the shipping cost that hikes the price to the UK. I found a set for about £35 on Ebay but a further £40 for shipping, taxes and currency conversion. There must be a way of getting this set...
Is the spoken intro version the same as the one that appeared on the “Forever More” collection
Hi Paul, I only heard about this collection last week when I re-read the wonderful Motown Junkies review of “Heatwave”, my all time favourite Motown record. One contributor mentioned the extended...
Just got a copy of “The Motown Box” from US EBay, $22.99 but a further $36 for shipping and import duty to the UK, works out at £47 at the current exchange rate. It’s in nearly new condition so happy...
Roger, does “Motown Big Hits And More” contain the fabulous extended 3:43 version of “Heatwave” and of the two box sets, which in your opinion is the better buy.
The “Motown Big Hits And More” set is now available with a 7th Disc containing 1970’s hits. Unfortunately for me, Treasurycollection.com do not ship outside the USA. Ant ideas how this can be...
Sounds a great boxset. Can I put out an appeal to forum members in US for details of any retailers who may have a copy of The Motown Box for sale. Ive exhausted all searches here in the UK. Thought I...
After appeals to forum members, I bought this box set for CA$205 including postage costs from Second Chance Records in Ontario last September which was equivalent to £125 sterling. Had to wait about...
When this 4CD box set was released in 2005, I dismissed it on the grounds that I already had everyone of its 70+ tracks on other collections. However, it now transpires that over 30 of the titles are...
I remember seeing the JML lineup in 1972 in Manchester, UK. The show was really poorly attended, probably only 30% full. This wasn’t helped with The Temptations and Junior Walker performing at a...
