What’s interesting when u list out the US tv appearances is u see that they really did heavily promote some singles. Like BW and HMM. So lack of tv time isn’t why they flopped

Lack of radio airplay I’m guessing

Lack of radio airplay and the ability to find the records in the stores. It took me 2 years to find the "Bad Weather" single. I bought it the same day as the 1975 album.

I'm trying to remember back in the day. did Motown do much with big, cardboard instore displays? i remember things with The Boss and some later releases but not the early 70s.

Some promotional efforts like that would have been helpful

The last big cardboard display I remember was for the "Touch" album and it stood in the window of Clark's Record Shop on Dorr Street in Toledo for a couple of years.
