    Apparently this was released on 23 September. Here's one comment from an Amazon customer.

    "I too have pre-ordered this and have already received the mp3 version from Amazon. The mp3 version is NOT the Supremes, well certainly not Diana Ross, Mary Wilson, Flo Ballard or Cindy Birdsong. It's the FLOS, complete with tinny, cheap musical accompaniment. If the CD arrives and it is the same it will be sent straight back".

    Amazon had [[and still have) great difficulty in distinguishing this new 3 CD set from an earlier release, also called "Baby Love" which was indeed of far inferior quality. I believe this will have cost Motown/Spectrum/Universal several £s by seriously damaging pre-release sales. They continue to do so!

    I realize yours is the "right" one. I bought the one I provided a link for a few months ago, knowing that it was a FLOS affair. However, the casual buyer would be misled by the incorrect billing and cover art. I was just wondering if my link was indeed the FLOS CD you were speaking of.

    This is also on Amazon US at a bargain price of $4.99--but there's not much info included. Who is releasing this? Has the music been remastered or are these vinyl transfers? How many eventual volumes are anticipated to be in the "complete" set?

    It is a vinyl transfer set from Hallmark. Hence the bargain price.
    However these are usually very good. They also did a Harvey release.
    Don't know how many volumes there will be

    Does anyone have any idea what's coming from Ace/Kent that was hinted at earlier in this thread [[other than the Syreeta collection)? It'd be nice to have something exciting to look forward to before Christmas!

    Well this one has somehow passed me by but I saw it in HMV at £9.99 today. The Jackson 5 with 5 classic albums. It is a Spectrum release along the lines of their quite recent set featuring Motown Chartbusters Volumes 1 to 5. The J5 albums have all been released on CD before, of course, but not with the Tamla Motown logo as is the case with this set. If they're like the Chartbusters issue, they will be exquisite reproductions of the UK album sleeves and laminated to boot. Might have to get me a set for the novelty value - I do like this sort of thing. Hopefully there'll be more UK CD mini LP sets if these sell OK - wouldn't that be great, and at a great price too? Just imagine, Junior Walker, Martha, 16 Big Hits, Supremes novelties [[Liverpool, Sam Cooke, Country Western Pop etc.) all as mini LPs. Great thought;

    Excuse my ignorance, but are the San Remo Strings related to Gordon Staples at all? I enjoyed the "Strung Out" LP so much, if there's anything similar in Motown's catalog I definitely want to get my hands on it!

    Yes, Mary, back in the late 1960's, Motown released two San Remo Golden Strings albums on its Gordy label -- "Hungry For Love" and "Swing". The contents of both albums are available on a Marginal Records CD, although the CD is out of print and the price gougers are out in full force. Here is the least expensive copy I could find on Amazon [[U.S.) through a 3rd-party dealer. The sound quality is excellent, as in master-tape quality, although rumors abound that it is a bootleg. Here's the link:

    Gordon Staples "Strung Out" is one of the few LPs of this genre that have had a legitimate re-release on CD:-

    Strung Out
    Gordon Staples & The String Thing
    Reel Music CD 2009
    66748-78014-2

    The San Remo Golden Strings albums are well worth a listen if you like the Gordon Staples kind of thing and the CD mentioned by Gary is very good [[but all the Marginal releases are bootlegs). Slightly more of a beat than Gordon Staples. They're overdue for a proper CD release.

    Also available on a Marginal bootleg are the tracks from the Choker Campbell "Hits Of The Sixties" album [[Motown done in a "big band" sound).

    You might like the Joe Harnell album, "Moving On" which is more of a piano based sound [[think of Ferrante and Teicher maybe). But not yet available on CD. Also not yet on CD is the Impact of Brass album "Down At The Brassworks" - a brassy sound as the title suggests.

    More akin to the true Motown Sound are the instrumental Earl Van Dyke tracks which are all now readily available.

    As always, YouTube has a bit of a selection if you wish to preview. Here's "Day By Day Or Never" by The San Remo Golden Strings.
