It sounded immediately like a smash hit to me.
But: US--#85; R&B--#18; UK--#31
Just how was this possible?
Am I completely off-base?
Merely personal taste?
Was it all about promotion--or lack thereof?
The Contours/JUST A LITTLE MISUNDERSTANDING [1966]
Written by Morris Broadnax/Stevie Wonder/Clarence Paul

Any ideas about what happened here?
The OUTRAGE LIST--Truly great Motown recordings
that didn't land where they deserved to be:
Besides MISUNDERSTANDING, I say:
· Brenda Holloway/JUST LOOK WHAT YOU'VE DONE [1967]
· The Supremes/NOTHING BUT HEARTACHES [1965]
· The Supremes/LOVE IS LIKE AN ITCHING IN MY HEART [1966]
I'd be interested to know: What's on your OUTRAGE LIST? Thanks.
