Motown missed the boat in not releasing this and not just as an album cut. It could have been big as a single!
"My Baby Loves Me" - Barry Manilow [[album "Barry Manilow II")
"I'm Ready for Love" - Four Tops [[album "Magic")
"I Can't Dance to That Music You're Playin'" [[Betty Boo)
"Tear It on Down" - Marvin Gaye, The Originals
80 covers of MR&TV's classics.

Heat Wave - Kathi McDonald
The Temptations - "I'm Ready For Love" [[from "In A Mellow Mood" LP)

Yesterday discovered a version of "you'll never cherish a love so true" [[The Vells) by Australian vocalist Johnny O Keefe.

ADDED: Just read a bit ....HEATWAVE was the "B" side of Linda's LOVE IS ROSE, DJs flipped it and made it a hit.
