Motown Classics: Gold

Motown Classics: Gold (2005) more music like this

by Various Artists

One of the most dominating forces in the history of popular music, the Motown imprint was more than a label, it was a juggernaut of soul music, a machine so finely honed and working with such efficiency that it wasn't uncommon for several chart topping hits to be recorded in one session. This anthology was previously issued in 2000 under the ...

Gonna Take a Miracle [Expanded]

Gonna Take a Miracle [Expanded] (2002) more music like this

by Laura Nyro and LaBelle

With the 1971 release Gonna Take a Miracle, pop composer and vocalist Laura Nyro completed her four-album/four-year deal for Columbia. Nyro's passion for R&B can be traced back to some of her earliest compositions, such as "Wedding Bell Blues" and "Stoned Soul Picnic" -- both of which were covered by the R&B vocal quintet the Fifth Dimension. More ...

Motown Greatest Hits

Motown Greatest Hits (2003) more music like this

by Various Artists

A three-disc set released by Universal International, Motown Greatest Hits is a wonderful collection that combines the obvious Motown hits with material a little less at the center of the label's patented 1960's sound. Rick James' "Superfreak" and Billy Preston's "With You I'm Born Again" are just two of the titles mixed in here that give this ...

Motown Legends, Vol. 4

Motown Legends, Vol. 4 (1995) more music like this

by Various Artists

Of the label's seemingly endless budget-priced hits collections, the Motown Legends series ranks among the best, giving consumers exactly what they want: the smash hits that defined "the Sound of Young America" during the company's heyday. Each of this fourth volume's 11 tracks is a true classic, and although it's difficult and more than a little ...

The Complete Motown Singles, Vol. 7: 1967 (2007) more music like this

by Various Artists

Listening to The Complete Motown Singles, Vol. 6: 1966 was a virtual party -- but there's nothing virtual about The Complete Motown Singles, Vol. 7: 1967 at all; it's a nonstop, high-octane party, with barely a bad track to be heard among its 120 songs spread across five CDs. Just like in 1966, almost every single that Motown released in 1967 made ...

Live Wire! The Singles 1962-1972 (1993) more music like this

by Martha & the Vandellas

This two-CD box set includes all of the top singles and many of the flip sides that Martha Reeves & the Vandellas cut for Motown. All the hits are here, of course; the collector will be especially interested in the B-sides and non-hit singles, many of which employed the songwriting talents of Motown regulars like Holland-Dozier-Holland and Mickey ...

by Martha & the Vandellas

Like any record company worth their salt, MCA knows a good gimmick when they see it, and when the millennium came around, the 20th Century Masters -- The Millennium Collection wasn't too far behind. Supposedly, the millennium is a momentous occasion, but it's hard to feel that way when it's used as another excuse to turn out a budget-line series. ...

Motown Legends (1993) more music like this

by Martha & the Vandellas

This budget issue is better than what one would expect, yet it wasn't compiled with any scholarship. Aside from the hits ("Heat Wave," "Jimmy Mack") there's a would-be hit in "I Love the Man, " a track previously featured in the deleted album "Natural Resources, " afrom 1970.

Do You (1985) more music like this

by Sheena Easton

Coming hot off the heels of the largely successful A Private Heaven, the response to Sheena Easton's follow-up set was surprisingly numb. Though producer Nile Rodgers had also had much success shortly before via his work with Madonna on Like a Virgin, the soul-tinged club arrangements he instilled Do You with were perhaps too retro-sounding for ...

Casey Kasem Presents: America's Top Ten - The 60's Motown's Greatest Hits (2003) more music like this

by Various Artists

This is, at best, an average collection of Motown hits. The only difference between this and a host of similar Motown compilations is Casey Kasem's name attached to it. Among the 20 tracks are the same tried and true bunch: "My Guy," "I Can't Help Myself (Sugar Pie Honey Bunch)," "Stop in the Name of Love," "I Heard It Through the Grapevine." The ...

True Blue/Double Cross (2001) more music like this

by Hank Crawford

This two-fer from Collectables features a pair of out of print Hank Crawford LPs: True Blue and Double Cross, originally issued in 1964 and 1968, respectively. These 18 soul-jazz tracks include "Shake a Plenty," "Skunky Green'," and Martha & the Vandellas' hit "Jimmy Mack." This is an enjoyable reissue, although most listeners would be better ...

While since supplanted by the Martha Reeves and the Vandellas entry in the Ultimate Collection series -- which contains all of the 18 tracks found here and appends seven more -- Motown Milestones is still a solid introduction to the group's timeless sound. Everything the casual Reeves fan would need is here, with the first four cuts -- "Nowhere to ...

The Motown Story, Vol. 1: The Sixties (2003) more music like this

Here is yet another reissue of the legendary (or infamous, depending on your point of view) Motown Story. The reason for its controversy exists simply in the fact that all these great hit songs have narration before them and after them by artists such as Lionel Richie, Smokey Robinson, and others. If you want the story with the songs, then this is ...

Heaven Must Have Sent You: The Holland/Dozier/Holland Story (2005) more music like this

by Various Artists

Given Motown/Universal's penchant for repackaging, it would seem redundant to release this three-disc set, since about two-thirds of the songs are already available on dozens of other compilations. But given the superb quality of material and the importance the writing team of Holland-Dozier-Holland had to American soul music, Heaven Must Have ...

Collectables' Motown Legends: Jimmy Mack is a good budget-priced 11-track collection containing some of Martha & the Vandellas' most popular songs from the '60s, including "Jimmy Mack" and "(Love Is Like A) Heat Wave." Please note that this compilation of the girl group's hits includes the exact same track listing as the 1993 release Motown ...

Motown Chartbusters, Vol. 1 was the first in a series of 12 released by Motown's U.K. subsidary, Tamla-Motown. Like many in the series, the album mixes bona fide hits like "Jimmy Mack," "Standing in the Shadows of Love," and "The Happening" with more obscure gems like "7-Rooms of Gloom" and "Gonna Give Her All the Love I've Got."

It may not be the most economical way to buy Motown, but the Chartbusters series does offer an intriguing blend of ...
