    The Jerry Ross Motown Album

    Here's one for the completists only - this CD on the Sequel label includes the tracks from their Colossis/Piccadilly album and their Motown album [[745L). 4 sides from the Motown album were released across 2 Motown singles and feature on The Complete Motown Singles Volume 12B so you'll have a good idea what it's all about. A sort of James Last meets Tijuana meets Gerry Anderson lol. Not unpleasant though. It's the final 11 tracks on the CD that made up the Motown album release.

    I remember he had one popular song that was kind of a hit. What was it? I think it was a dance or upbeat song.

    Back in the day, I had the Motown LP. Now, I have the CD. The track I've always loved the most is "It Happened On A Sunday Morning", which should have been the A-side of the 45. Instead, it ended up on Side B, while "Duck You SUCKer", IMO, was foolishly given the A-side honors. Even the title was suck-worthy! Should have been their first clue!
