I have the added bonus of celebrating my 50th in the same year as Motown therefore I need some assistance from the Motown experts.

Was there a Motown record issued on or about the 02nd August 1959, if so details please

Many thanks,

Dave

Hi Dave,

According to the book Motown The History by Sharon Davis, Money by Barrett Strong was released on Tamla and Anna in August 1959, and It by Ron & Bill also released on Tamla in August 1959.

When you are 60 you have Baby I'm For Real by the Originals.

Steve

RON and BILL.....IT / DONT SAY BYE-BYE........TAMLA STRIPES

BOB KAYLI........PEPPERMINT / NEVER MORE....ANNA LABEL

I may be wrong but thought Barrett Strong came out in November, although was pressed earlier on a 10" disc.

RON and BILL.....IT / DONT SAY BYE-BYE........TAMLA STRIPES

Yes, I heard it came out on Anna originally but it came out on Tamla in Aug 59 according to https://www.seabear.se/Tamla1.html ?

Think it'll do tho'?

One of my useless bits of information-Baby I'm For Real came out in August 1969 so when Dave makes 60 he knows Money came out 60 years ago and the Originals 50 years ago.

I'm like you Westy,born before release dates and charts were used!. See you at the next Drax all being well.

Steve aka Jack

Thanx for all the information, it'll be put to good use !!!

Dave

BUT HE DONT WANT THAT JACK, HE WANTS TO KNOW WHAT WAS RELEASED WHEN HE WAS BORN,NOT WHEN HE WAS 10YEARS OLD.

plus most of us who is 50 or younger was born when Motown was around. however sadly for someone like me i was born when motown was making pop records.

great info since i am always wanting info on Motown music
