Thanks! What I am really looking for is the shoe prints diagram that shows the sequence of step moves.

I have it now. Maybe I saw it back in 1965. Played a few bars, hated it, and so didn't buy it or listen more. I don't remember hearing it on radio in Chicago. But The Entertainers IV song...

WOW!!! That is about as unexpected as unexpected can get!!! The Temptations dancing with Molly Pican [[Queen of The Yiddish Theatre)!!!! ;)

Thanks Paul.
What I saw was a glossy publicity photo of All 5 Temptations in a line, each doing a different step of "The Temptation Walk", with the photo paper extended below as a white area...

Thanks Graham,
But the photo I wanted was only one of those six shots, and each is too small to be adequate, and furthermore, it is actually the symbolic footprints demonstrating the dance...

Can someone here post the publicity photo of The Temptations doing "The Temptation Walk" with the dance's footstep diagram below it? My copy is in Europe, and I can't get to it now, and I...

From which language is that line? I can't tell from XIT's probably heavy American accent and notary good elocution. Certainly they are not native speakers of it.

You all forgot "I Comma Zimba Zio" by Abdullah, on Soul 35051! A classic from 1968. :cool:

Cal led on a whole bunch [[around 10 or more) of totally French language songs by The Velvelettes while with Motown, as she was fully fluent in Français. Those recordings were made for the...

I remember having seen that song being listed on a Motown in-house list of slated 45 releases with numbers assigned [[while flipping through some administrative papers at Motown during the mid...
Of course, I meant "VIP single", as opposed to "Gordy single".

I liked Adam Wade almost from his beginning. I bought "Rain From The Skies", "Ruby", "Take Good Care of Her", and "The Writing On The Wall" brand new when they came out. He was a crooner,...

Thanks for posting this great interview. I'd never seen it before. I knew all about all the early period events in his history [[except the West Point situation), but learned a lot about his...

In Winnipeg, back during the 1940s and 1950s, they almost NEVER cancelled school days for too much snow. We used to ski to school [[on cross-country skis). We didn't even bring them into the...

My current car [[2013 Nissan) has a mini-tire [[only good for emergencies). In 1980, when I bought my Subaru 4-Wheel Wagon, it had an undersized spare, too. I immediately went to a junkyard...

For me it's his time at Chess Records with Harvey Fuqua's New Moonglows, and his first couple years with Tamla [[1958-62).
19748
The Rayber Voices are definitely on this recording, just as they were on Barrett Strong's version. The prominent voices probably Clarence Paul, and it's likely that although Berry was...

Griffin was working basically with Ed Wingate and JoAnne Bratton, right after the Golden World sale to Motown, as they were setting up the new, solid blue Ric-Tic label [[registered in...

The Moonglows were actually from Louisville, Kentucky. But Alan Freed brought them to Cleveland in 1952, to record for his new Champagne Records label, and then got them a deal with Art...

Of course, this CD is VERY relevant to soulful Detroit, as all of those 1966-67 releases were Detroit productions by ex-Motowner, Herman Griffin [[Mary Wells' ex-husband), who, himself, was...

Nice to know that my old memory is still at least partly intact! :cool:
19731
I wonder if Carolyn was actually still with Motown when Martha and The Vandellas recorded "Love Makes Me Do Foolish Things". I'm sure I saw recording dates by Carolyn on some of her later...
19720
WHY???? Alan Freed was a DJ who was a Jazz fan, who happened to discover R&B music, and decided to bring that to the attention of his mainly "Caucasian" radio [[and later, TV, Film, and live...

I first heard The Supremes in spring 1961, when I played "I Want A Guy" and "Never Again" on their Tamla single. I bought it because I liked so many Tamla records that I tried them all. I...
