Classic Motown Northern sound - never understood why is midtempo dancer with great spinning and clapping sections was never played out more - late 60ts early 70ts classic soul - smokey at his best  

 

 

 

This is a great thread for me. I'd like to contribute with a non Motown cover that is a firm favourite on the Sweet Soul front. Latin Soul perfection.

 

Bettye Swann's with an interesting arrangement of the Robinson co-written 'Ain't that Peculiar'.
