    DRATS rare and unreleased songs PART 2 [[1967-70) and where to find them

    I'm proud to announce that the part 2 of the expanded discography is now online. Like the part one, it's a tentative to list all the existing versions of songs, also completed with still unreleased tracks or versions or albums.

    Great info. With 6 albums being released in 68 and 5 in 69, that's alot of product in the market. I can see why their albums and singles didn't chart higher!

    Agreed! This is an awesome list to reference!

    Regarding the release schedule, what was Motown thinking? The Supremes were literally competing with themselves for record sales. Was this common for other artists and other record labels during this time period?

    I think some artists might have released two albums a year back then but five or six is going overboard.

    It was quite common to release 2 albums per year back then. Sometimes more, and this continued into the early 80's.
    I recall Glen Campbell telling me that he released 5 albums in one year.

    I could see 5 albums in one year when an artist is red hot.
    The Supremes continued this until the early 70s. Bit over kill at times but grateful for the music

    Does anyone know what was or could have been the original track listing intended for the album Reflections ? [[see pic and comments of the original sleeve with Florence Ballard on the site - link in the first message)
