The second Motown compilation recently acquired in my local charity shop is Tamla Motown: Big Hits & Hard to Find Classics Vol 4.
Fantastic stuff. Maybe not quite as good as Connoisseurs but then again that compilation sets the bar pretty high.
Again I could have posted any of the 20 songs as they are all equally good but I have decided to go for a brace of Barbaras
Barbara Randolph have a brief stint with the Platters prior to joining Motown where she released two singles on the subsidiary Soul Records label. This is the first one I Got a Feeling which was also an album track on the Four Tops On Top album.

Barbara Randolph - I Got a Feeling
Barbara McNair - Steal Away Tonight
A fine pair of tunes to be sure, but isn't that Diana Ross in the top photo?
ReplyDeleteYou may well be right. I've changed it just in case
DeleteI Got A feeling is such a joyous tune. It always brings a smile to my coupon.
ReplyDeleteYou are spoiling us. Really enjoying these Motown finds.
