    It Moves Me - The Complete Eddie Holland Recordings 1958-1964

    Ace Records are delighted to announce “It Moves Me - The Complete Eddie Holland Recordings 1958-1964”, which is scheduled for release in January. This is a two-CD set [[the first such in Ace’s specially-licensed Motown series), and, as the title states, it contains the complete recordings up to 1964 of the man who went on to become a member of the most successful songwriting team of the 1960s after Lennon and McCartney – Holland, Dozier and Holland.

    Following an extensive trawl of the Vaults, we’ve included everything that we’ve been able to find that Eddie Holland recorded for Mercury, United Artists, Motown – and the tiny Kudo label, where Eddie appeared under his brother Brian’s name on a commercial for Cadillac Club “Nature Boy” wine. As well as all the released material and recordings which didn’t pass the Motown Quality Control auditions, we’ve included home recordings, alternate versions, and studio demos for artists such as Kim Weston and the Four Tops.

    The set contains 55 tracks; 30 of them have never till now appeared [[legitimately) on CD, and 18 have never been released in any form before, and are known only to fans still cherishing their hissy, stretched collectors’ tapes from the 1980s. And even those folk have some surprises coming, we hope.

    The story of Eddie’s recording career is narrated in the booklet by the man himself, in an exclusive interview with Ace Records for this collection. And a few of his wry comments are included in the Track Notes, which, as is usual with Ace/Motown releases, provide an insight into every track in the set. The booklet also contains rare pictures, snippets from record magazines of the era and a huge number of label scans, including one of a commercial copy of the rarer-than-rare Motown 1026.

    Enormous thanks are due to Mr Harry Weinger of Universal Music, whose idea the project was, and who has helped us through innumerable “sticky patches” along the road to release. And thanks are due also to other readers of this Board who supplied us with memories, pictures, and – in a very few cases – their rare records, where a tape source could not be found.

    Watch this space for announcements of more Ace/Motown releases in the not too distant future!

    Thanks, Keith. With Eddie Holland, the Marvelettes and Earl Van Dyke, it's going to be a great start to 2012.

    Thank you so much, Keith and everyone else bringing this project to fruition. Being a big fan of Eddie Holland, this is a dream come true. What a beautiful picture [[I'm loving the artwork and the overall design of the Ace/Kent Motown-sets so far) and what an appetizing tracklist! Can't wait to get my hands on this. 18 unreleased songs? Unbelievable! I wonder if LOVE IS WHAT YOU MAKE IT is the same song David Ruffin and The Temptations recorded so memorably?

    A question about the tracklist, am I right to assume this set will include only 45 mixes of tracks that appeared on both singles and on the Eddie Holland Motown LP? Does anyone of these tracks appear in a unique mix or unique version on the LP?

    I`m fizzin`! Let`s hope that the Mayan calendar predictions are bullshit as I want to be thrashing this release. Many thanks Keith and Ace.

    Excellent news, Keith. This is the set i've been looking forward to for ages.

    Two questions: [1] are all the unreleased tracks from the Motown vaults rather than the earlier labels, and [2] are any of the other 'a' sides apart from 'Jamie' in stereo?

    thanks.

    Great write up and the cover work/photo is quite nice. I'm looking forward to this release. Does anyone know if Eddie Holland recorded any music AFTER 1964?

    He cut some tracks in the 80s for the various artist promotional album for HDH, "Yesterday, Today and Forever". I don't have the album with me, so I can't name them at the moment. They don't particularly sound like Eddie.

    is the track "action speaks louder than words" the same as david ruffin's on checkmate

  11. #11
    Keep 'em coming.

    The Contours "It's so Hard Being a Loser" [[the unreleased album) combined with a round up of all the unreleased recordings from 1966-67 [[inc those catalogued as Dennis Edwards) would be an interesting project. Maybe a bit too much to ask given the recent release of their earlier material I know.

    I thought Eddie recorded a few unreleased recordings for Motown in 1965. I thought I remember hearing them, and being surprised he was still recording so late. I thought that "Take Me In Your Arms" was one of them. I thought I remember seeing a recording date on that from early 1965. If so, shouldn't the CD title read 1958-1965?

    Robb, I believe his vocals were recorded in October, 1964.

    Would Ace not consider releasing an album on another thread the one by Caston & Major, I still feel it is a superb album and one never released on CD and still could sell and attract new fans and listeners.

    The Holland-Dozier CD "The Picture Never Changes" on HDH includes the Eddie Holland Invictus track "Where Did We Go Wrong?" both in solo form and as a duet with Eloise Laws.

    The tracks by Eddie on the 1980 promo, "Yesterday Today and Forever" [[Jobete PRO #9) were:
    Reach Out I'll Be There
    Only You [[Can Love Me Like You Love Me)
    I Can't Go On Living Without Your Love
    You're My Driving Wheel
    You Gave Me Something to Believe In
    Let Yourself Go
    Magic Touch
    Run for Cover.

    didn't find anything recorded later than October 1964, Robb ... when "Where Did Our Love Go" hit #1, Eddie's recording career was OVER - a deliberate decision ...

    yes, Irv, "Action" was also recorded by Bobby Darin as well as David Ruffin.

    I'm really looking forward to this release. Eddie Holland was my parents' favorite male vocalist in 1963-1964. They still spin his Just Ain't Enough Love and Baby Shake. Really tough sounding records!

    Just Ain't Enough Love has always been a favorite of mine. The Andantes sound real good on this too. I wish I could get my hands on a stereo copy of it.

    I know the Stereo mix of "Leaving Here" isn't on this set, but I wonder if anyone knows if the version on "Collection of 16 Original Big Hits Vol. 2" [[the only volume on Tamla in the US) was a remix, or a rerecording. A few of the selections on that set were newly recorded such as "I'll Have to Let Him Go," by the Vandellas. I always loved the mixes on that LP, so I'm curious about the Holland.

    He recorded "I'm So Glad I Learned To Do The Cha Cha, which was recorded by Herman Griffin as a Berry Gordy Production near the end of 1958 for Carmen Murphy's House of Beauty Records. It was the first Jobete Music song. I wonder if Berry had Eddie sing the demo for Herman, or if Eddie just recorded t later after Tamla was started? What is the recording date for Eddie's version?

    Brilliant! Where can I buy it?

    Does anyone know if stereo mixes exist for any of the other A sides, apart from Jamie and Leaving Here?

    Robb, no date on the reel, but we've guessed it as 1958, so likely a demo for Griffin. PJ, no other stereo masters that we've found.

    I'll be curious to find out if "ACTION SPEAKS LOUDER THAN WORDS" is the song recorded by Mable John, or David Ruffin. The Mable John song was published by Jobete Music [[Motown 1960), and the David Ruffin was Fidelity Music [[Berry & Gwen Gordy & Billy Davis - probably 1960 or 1961). Can you tell me which one it is, Keith?

    It's the song covered by David Ruffin, but, before that, it was covered by Bobby Darin on his first LP. Darin monkeys about with the lyrics & arrangement somewhat, but Ruffin stays fairly close to the original.

    I received my copy in the post yesterday morning and it's been playing again and again and again since then. I can't believe what a great voice Eddie had - musical, a lovely vibrato and with perfect diction. The CD booklet is to die for. Keith Hughes has intrerviewed Eddie, who was very honest in his views of the tracks and he adds the usual great, informative annotations to the track listing. The unreleased songs are, on the whole, of great quality and I'm surprised in one way that many of them we never released. Eddie does make it clear though that he didn't like the bus travel to and from gigs and that his writing career was more important in every way. Once those Supremes' hits the charts, that was it for him as far as performing was concerned. I was also delighted to hear the Vandellas on backing vocals on "I'm On The Outside Looking In". Roz and Annette had told me already that it's them. The Andantes are all over the place though and are heard on the majority of the bvs. Keith, this is the best Ace / Motown release yet and you are to be congratulated in every way. along with the rest of the team at Ace and Universal, especially Harry in NYC. Keep 'em coming please. I long to read what the next project is.

    Amazon US has the set for $ 29 on a February 7th release;

    Deep Discount is selling for $ 21 with release on the same day [Deep Discount offers free shipping on orders over $ 15];
    http://www.deepdiscount.com/cd/HOLLA...RDINGS-1958-64

    CDWow is selling for $ 31 with release on January 31st, but orders come from Hong Kong and can take a month or more to arrive in the US.

    I haven't been following the thread. Please forgive me if any of the information has been previously presented.

    Got mine yesterday at HMV. Excellent.

    "You're Sweeter As the Days Go By" made me smile.

    Excellent collection. I can hear why Eddie Holland was my parents' favorite singer. Is that the Supremes backing Eddie on Brenda. It sure sounds like a young Diana Ross on the fade.

    grovin' to the previously unreleased "pretty little angel face" [[a probable follow-up to marvin gaye's "can i get a witness". also, love the early and very different arrangement of "[[loneliness made me realize) it's you that i need"!

    Has anyone noticed that Track 21 on Disc 2 is not "Too Late to Cry"? My copy has a version of "I Like Everything About You" and then a different version of it three tracks later. So where is "Too Late to Cry"? Does this mean we do not have "The Complete Recordings" of Eddie Holland after all?

    "You're Sweeter as the Days Go By" [[Disc 2, Track 18) is an early version of "You're a Wonderful One."

    "Too Late To Cry" is explained in the booklet. I`m filing it as "I Like Everything About You" version 1.

    Thanks, Roger. Might have helped if I'd read the booklet before I posted, eh? I will delve into it now.

    What a beautiful piece this set is. I haven't played it yet, but I'm very excited about the notes and the photos in the booklet. Someone has quite a rare Holland collection which we are now able to share, with lots of photos of rare 45s, acetates and of course the rare "Jamie" LP. Perhaps these came from Mr. Holland himself? Anyway, great looking set!

    I love this set! I had hoped to be able to get rid of the Marginal Eddie Holland collection, but the last two tracks on the Marginal CD are not on this set. Both are kind of odd, Come On Home being just an instrumental and What Goes Up Must Come Down is all spoken lyrics. Any information on either one of these tracks, such as recording dates?

    Also, Welcome Back is 2:14 on the Marginal CD and 2:49 on the It Moves Me set. I have to listen some more to hear exactly what the differences are besides the time. Maybe the 2:14 version is one of the unmixed versions referred to in the It Moves Me booklet?

    On a side note - he sure sounds a lot like Jackie Wilson on a lot of his songs. Is anyone else hearing this?

    Oldies

    Editing to say I just realized that What Goes Up Must Come Down is on TCMS 1963, Disc 13, but listed as by Holland-Dozier instead of Eddie Holland. I don't particularly care for the song, but at least it's a better and legitimate copy of it!

    Editing again [[!) to say that Come On Home is also on that same TCMS 1963 Disc 13, also as Holland-Dozier. Goodbye Marginal CD!
