I recently got a new cell and decided it what time to get one with all of the bells and whistles.
One thing I am LOVING is that I am able to get Internet Radio, specifically SHOUTcast Radio. They have a "Motown 24-7" station that plays all Motown with ZERO interruptions.
And I am talking GOOD, RARE Motown. Today I heard "Lovelight" by The Supremes [[when's the last time you heard THAT on the radio?) followed by, and I am not kidding, "Mother You, Smother You" by Christine Schumacher and the Supremes.
They play a lot of Shorty Long and Jimmy Ruffin, but am often surprised by the Andantes and The Velvelettes.
One down side is the credit given to artists; I saw something credited today as a duet between Edwin Starr and The Supremes. I for the life of me cannot remember the name of the track, but the female did sound a bit like Jean Terrell and got me thinking about, what if the Jean-lead Supremes DID record something with Edwin Starr? Both had very powerful, soulful voices.
Anyway, you can listen on the internet as well; here are two links for the same great station:
