Treat for Tammi Terrell fans

Here's a nice unreleased slice of mid-60's Motown - Tammi covering Stevie Wonder's "All I Do Is Think About You", a song he finally covered himself for the Hotter Than July sessions in 1980. Somewhere in the Motown vaults is a version by Brenda Holloway.

Buy it! Essential Motown. Much of the time it's even better than the stuff that got released. lol There's a reason AMG gave it 5 stars. wink

Oh, and Kim Weston's "Don't Let Me Down" has got to be one of the slinkiest, sexiest Motown tracks of all.

Yeah, I had just read AMG's review of it, and I couldn't agree more - Motown needs to STOP releasing the same stuff over and over. There's so much stuff in their catalogue worth releasing on CD - including most of Rick James' material - yet the same things keep appearing on their compilations. As much as I love Diana Ross and the Supremes (separately and collectively) there are about a bajillion releases from them on Motown.

This is why I thank God for Hip-O-Select. lol

To actually have The Supremes and The Temptations Live In Japan LP's transferred to CD is a miracle. And they're also busy remastering entire unreleased albums and live gigs.

So far, I only copped the previously released Syreeta albums (2-on-1 CD) from Hip-O, but their reissues amaze me.

Can you rename it to .mp3 after it's downloaded?

WOW!! I didn't know the song was that old. Does anyone think Tammi would have fared well as a solo singer?

Again, many thanks for poiting out Tammi's music to me. I did not have anything by her and now I am in a Tammi frenzy!
