I guess the DIVA MISS ROSS THE BOSS turned her nose up at it. Oh well. 8:08 Wow. What a INAPROPRIATE OUTFIT to sing a Christian Christmas Carol! And judging from the hair, this was in the 80's..
WHY DID THAT LIL' WHITE GIRL TAKE FRONT SEAT TO SUCH GREATS AS RONNIE SPECTOR,DARLENE LOVE.THE TEMPS...AND NOT ONE SUPREMES MEMBER AMONGST 'EM....BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
@hotlanta1979 If you ever find it please let me know, I would love to get a copy from you. I would be willing to pay you. My email is lakortornette@gmail.com
Hi there. Just letting you know that the copies I have of "Motown Merry Christmas" are converted from VHS to DVD! It is the complete show and is great quality considering it was taped in 1987! I would love to do business with you. I searched for so long for this video and now am sooo happy to have it and share it with others that it touched as well! There is nothing that compares to this Christmas special! I am asking $20 for each copy no tax no shipping charges. The only way I'm comfortable
i've been watchin this special every christmas since i can remember and i wasnt even born when it first aired and my mom still has da tape lol thnx 4 posting
I remember watching this when I was much younger. I actually have a tape that says Chrismtas 1987 and this whole special is on there. I may have to dust off the old VCR and watch whole show. I really wish they would put it out on DVD>
Best Christmas special ever! You get the feeling these people just love to sing. Imagine today's stars doing this. Most of them can't sing a note without a backup vocal track, not to mention the size of their egos would prevent them from even sharing a stage. Thanks for posting!!!
FINALLY - I have been looking for this particular special for so long, this is one of the best Christmas Specials that I had the privlidge to watch when I was a little boy - that was so long ago I am no 41. The lady who sings - McDowell (is that right?), I was suprised that she also had an awsome voice that almost matched the MOTOWN Stars. I do remember that MIZZZ ROSS was on NOT on this show. BUTT anyhoo thank you so very much
