Celebrating now over 50 years of Motown music with one of the first vocal groups Berry Gordy, Jr. signed for his record company, The Contours. The group failed their first audition, but when Jackie Wilson took them himself back to Gordy for a second audition, they were signed. "Do You Love Me" was originally intended for The Temptations, but Gordy gave the tune to The Contours, and it ended up being their only Top 40 recording, peaking at #3 in September of 1962. The song got a second life with the 1987 release of the Patrick Swayze film, "Dirty Dancing", and it was re-released as a single and jumped all the way to #11 on the charts, twenty-five years after its original issue.
