Motown Eddie, I would have to say "I Got A Feeling" and "Your Love Is Wonderful". Every time I hear those records, I can't help thinking, "Damn, Motown was good!"
Belated Happy Birthday, Cindy! I hope your special day was the best ever! I absolutely adored you in Diana Ross & The Supremes. You were pure talent and class!
Hi drlorne,

John, very little is mentioned about Phil Spector in the Motown books, just as very little is mentioned about Motown in the books regarding Phil Spector and Philles Records, other than the fact that...
Yeah, Waiting, there are several elements in that record bursting with Motown joy, and Wanda was one of them. And so were The Andantes. Those ooohs-and-aaahs harmonies just blow me away! Cal Gill...
Happy Birthday to Connie and to Dionne! Connie, I have all of your MGM albums (mostly on CD), and, Dionne, I have all of your Scepter, Warner Bros., and Arista CDs. Both of you remain two of my...
Waiting, compared to the radio playlists in NYC, I wouldn't exactly call where I lived "regional". WGVA radio (20 minutes from where I lived) was 600 miles from NYC -- practically at opposite ends...
A belated Happy Birthday to one of my two musical heroes! I hope your special day was the best ever, Mr. Berry Gordy, Jr.!
For me, a missed opportunity for both Motown AND The Marvelettes was the unreleased "Love Is Good" from the Wanda, Katherine, and Gladys era. For those who have never heard it or may have simply...
"When I'm Gone" was my first introduction to Brenda Holloway in Spring of 1965, Marv. I was blown away by it from the first time I heard it on our local radio station. I raced to the record store...
Hey Waiting! I was 14 in 1965 when The Marvelettes' 'I'll Keep Holding On" was released, and was 15 when "Danger Heartbreak Dead Ahead" was released. Our local AM radio station -- WGVA in Geneva,...
Hey, John! As much as I love Phil Spector and Motown, I never thought they sounded anything alike, musically speaking. Sure, 1963 Philles and, a year later, late-1964 Motown, were producing the...
WOW! What a RARE opportunity for the right Philles collector! If you're interested, scroll down to where the seller's description of the item says "Read More". Then, when the new page opens up to...

Oh, Pavillion, okay. No problem! That was the first stereo-ized version which I included in "56th Anniversary Of The Philles Christmas LP" Part 1. Actually, I'm relieved, Eddie. For a minute...
You're very welcome, Eddie. You say you have a version on the Palladium label from 1982? That version is news to me. Can you post a photo of it? I would love to see it.
It's okay, Kenny. It's not your fault. This last thread has been a thorn in our side from the get-go. Everything we tried to do with it worked against us -- every step of the way. It's a shame...
Kenny, thank you so much for posting the rest of my Philles Christmas LP photos for me. Thanks also to Ralph and Lowell for their support, and especially for Lowell's technical help with our...
