In a recent survey on Soul Source this Motown record was voted best ever. The vocals of Levi Stubbs make the hairs stand up on the back of your neck.

Might be a time to re-post my live recording of The Four Tops at the Odeon in the early 70s . I am sure that Still Waters was their current single at the time (unfortunately not on this bit ) . Abs

It's My Time - Mynah Birds

Go On And Cry - Mynah Birds

I can't say I've heard these tracks but as they include Neil Young (in his pre Buffalo Springfield days) they've got to be good. If anyone has invested in The Complete Motown Singles: Vol. 6 then perhaps you can enlighten me?

Thanks :)

I noticed that too - I thought at the time it would - you know with Stax fans, Atlantic fans or whatever. But seems Motown is the one that does the trick! As it should be!

So let me get this right.

We have a topic called 'motown your favourite song' and people who love motown (as Craig said) don't just have one favourite - they have dozens and it changes as they hear something again. So these folks share their love of Motwon by sharing song titles with each other - like going to a go-go - because it's fun. It's not doing any one any harm

So what exactly is the problem here? If'n you don't like it in the Pizza hut - there's always a great Indian just down the road right? Leave the boys with their toys and everyone's happy. !englandflag!
