Another gem found on "The Complete Motown Singles, Vol. 7: 1967" A great compilation of Detroit's finnest R&B/Soul music by the label Motown. "The sophistication of the arrangements, the voices, the rhythms, the big, open sound, the lyrics that anyone can understand and get behind-- this is why Motown, a black company in a blindingly white world, originally crashed the pop charts, and all of this is what kept them there even as everything else changed. Partly thanks to Motown, by 1967, anything could hit the pop charts, and just about any kind of thing you could imagine did, by artists of all races." - Pitchfork

  • Liked the Supremes, but I LOVED Martha and the Vandellas!

    No disrepect, but they just sounded beter, I liked Martha's vocals better than Diana's!

    Motown, was putting it down back then. The "Funk Brothers", all the producers, singers, and musical talent; it must have been a dynamically charged atmosphere!

  • My bro.' saw them at Temple '67 when one of the Vandellas' boyfriend was in Vietnam, his name was Jimmy Mack.

  • This is the original 45 r.p.m. mix which I have nrver heard until now! I have the original album mix, which along with the modern digitally remastered mix are basically what's available on the market. Kudos to Motown/Universal for re-releasing this!
