    I would say that Black Magic is one of my favorite Motown albums, not just Martha & The Vandellas. Watchout was also a great album, but doesn't quite equal Black Magic in my eyes.

    I'm just the opposite in my favorite MR&V album. For me, "Watchout" bests "Black Magic" by a hair, in both music and cover design.

    I rate "Watchout" as my favorite Motown album and album cover just behind "Where Did Our Love Go" [[my very first Motown album).

    I think I bought "Watchout" because of the cover. At the time, I liked "I'm Ready For Love" but didn't love it [[now I do), but that cover just said "buy me". I'm so glad I did.

    A couple of the songs on "Black Magic" don't stand the test of time for me like the classic songs, from Motown's classic era, on "Watchout".

    I'd rate Black Magic higher than Watchout, but they are both my two favorite Martha and the Vandellas albums. And I'm with you on Black Magic. It would be on my list of absolute favorite Motown albums ever.
