Guest vinylvixen Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 OK - this is a tough one.... Earl Van Dyke - All for You - UK Tamla Motown - not the Soul US version Kim Weston - Gonna make it up to you baby Frank Wilson - Til you were gone Kim Weston - I'm still loving you Spinners - How can I Liz Lands - Midnight Johnny Jo

Madmandy Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 (edited) Have to say many of my fave motown tunes been mentioned suspicion being one But I think If I were a carpenter by the four tops makes the hairs stand up every time I know its not played out that much but I still love it the intro is brilliant Mand PS anyone on here own the whole back catalogue???? Edited January 19, 2009 by Madmandy
Guest Aberdeen Soul Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 SIMPLE WHATS YOUR FAV NORTHERN MOTOWN TRACK AND IF YOU DJ DO YOU PLAY IT WHEN YOUR OUT? FOR ME ONE I ALWAYS PLAY AND LIKE THE ISLEY BROTHERS MY LOVE IS YOUR LOVE david ruffin - still in my heart
Guest Bigsoulman Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Played Four Tops Since You've Been Gone on Saturday, what a belter! Lenny
chrissie Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Played Four Tops Since You've Been Gone on Saturday, what a belter! Lenny Lenny, and I thought it was the Isley's "Behind A Painted Smile" as I played it especially for your birthday last year Mine has to be Linda Griner - Good-by Cruel Love and finally got round to buying it this year and yes I do play it out...........you try stopping me This is the record that moved me off the sofa and back on to the scene a few years ago after I heard it on Sound of the Sixties on radio 2 one saturday. QoFxx
Reforee Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Most of them been cover by previous posts. Last 3 or 4 DJ spots dropped Tony Martin - "Ask any man" on Motown. Big voice, big production quite an awesome dancer and very under rated and under played IMHO. Dave
Rbman Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Frank Wilson - Til you were gone I just love that one..... Someone said the Temps version of "Truly Yours" ....brilliant version IMO....did i once see a demo of this?
Stubbsy Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Temptations - "You're Not An Ordinary Girl" on Gordy, B side of "Beauty Is Only Skin Deep"
Guest andyrattigan Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 So many Top Northern Motown for me a few are: Barbara Mcnair- It happens every time JJ Barnes- Aint it the Truth Martha Reeves and Vandellas- In my Lonely Room Tammi Terrell- All I Do and This Old Heart of Mine Edwin Starr- SOS.
Raresoul45s Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 I just love that one..... Someone said the Temps version of "Truly Yours" ....brilliant version IMO....did i once see a demo of this? No you wouldn't have unreleased sadley. Another one by the Spinners What more could a boy ask for.
Winsford Soul Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 So many good tunes to choose from, which considering motown was the route to Northern for us old gits, isn't surprising really. Cant beleive no one has mentioned Marvin Gaye. This love starved heart of mine ( its killing me ) Steve
Guest Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 SIMPLE WHATS YOUR FAV NORTHERN MOTOWN TRACK AND IF YOU DJ DO YOU PLAY IT WHEN YOUR OUT? FOR ME ONE I ALWAYS PLAY AND LIKE THE ISLEY BROTHERS MY LOVE IS YOUR LOVE THRILL A MOMENT- KIM WESTON YES I DJ AND WOULD ALWAYS PLAY IT PURE CLASS.
Davekd Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 I'm currently playing Chris Clark - Head to Toe Martha & the Vandellas - Come and Get These Memories The Marvelettes - What's Easy for Two is Hard for One Dave
Kev Moore Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 I'm currently playing Chris Clark - Head to Toe Martha & the Vandellas - Come and Get These Memories The Marvelettes - What's Easy for Two is Hard for One Nice that one eh Dave Kev

No but I know someone who does - not including the Oriole, Fontana, Stateside etc etc....I've had my HANDS on the entire TamlaMotown collection ALL on demo in stock bags....I did try stuffing them all up my jumper but I got rumbled
Guest vinylvixen Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 (edited) THRILL A MOMENT- KIM WESTON YES I DJ AND WOULD ALWAYS PLAY IT PURE CLASS. So you should. This was always 'Colin and Maureen's' record at These Old Shoes. When it was their 25th wedding anniversary, they came all the way back from Venice to make sure they were at TOS. It would have been rude NOT to play 'A Thrill a Moment' for such unswerving loyalty....and Colin seranaded Maureen on the dancefloor...how very very cool Happy days Edited January 20, 2009 by vinylvixen
Britishbarry Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 I Gotta let you go ~ Martha and the Vandellas
chrissie Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 Chris Clark - Head to Toe Dave Great record currently on must buy eventually list QoFxx
De-to Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 No but I know someone who does - not including the Oriole, Fontana, Stateside etc etc....I've had my HANDS on the entire TamlaMotown collection ALL on demo in stock bags....I did try stuffing them all up my jumper but I got rumbled if this includes tmg-786 and tmg-885,ill jump in the *kin river,
Kev Moore Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 No but I know someone who does - not including the Oriole, Fontana, Stateside etc etc....I've had my HANDS on the entire TamlaMotown collection ALL on demo in stock bags....I did try stuffing them all up my jumper but I got rumbled Our kid had them all Oriele, Fontana, Stateside and all the 500seriesTMG's all demos says it took him. 13 years.

Guest vinylvixen Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 if this includes tmg-786 and tmg-885,ill jump in the *kin river, Sorry, I should've put all issued TMGs - the Willie Hutch and R Dean Taylor were unissued.....

Guest ktf mal Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 I would play out Four Tops......Clip My Wings Jimmy Ruffin.....I Will Never Let You Get Away more to follow ktf mal
Guest Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 Ill second G Knights "Shoes" And add, The Monitors "Crying in the night" Plus The Spinners "Memories of her love" Thing is, there are so many great Motown tracks, it would take a long time to add all of the ones I like to play!
Guest sadsam Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 Sorry, I feel mine beats all others. Perfect northern, perfect Motown and perfect vocals from the one and only Gladys Knight with Just Walk In My Shoes. 15k for Frank Wilson or £5 for Gladys.... no competition and yes, I play it out at every venue possible. Never tire of it. just there before me, it allways has been and it allways will be
Davekd Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 Great record currently on must buy eventually list QoFxx Its a nice tune, that I picked up after Kev Moore played it at our place - one of several good tips I have got from Kev. My favorite today though is The Miracles 'Whatever makes you happy' Dave
timthemod Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 Hattie Littles - Heart Trouble And Misery Stevie Wonder - Everytime I Go Wild Earl Van Dyke - Can You Jerk Like Me and loads of others!
Wilxy Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 ISLEY BROTHERS ....... SEEK AND YOU SHALL FIND ..LP ONLY........... Awesome track buddy
Guest Marcus1960 Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 Marvin Gaye - Come get to this Awesome motown at it's very best
De-to Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 Sorry, I should've put all issued TMGs - the Willie Hutch and R Dean Taylor were unissued..... unless someone has these two uk 45s in demo format ????,i would love to know,
ricticman Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 Changes all the time , and probably always will - but the one that comes back to the top more than any other ' just one last look ' by the Tempts . like a knife in the heart - every time I hear it I've cleared the floor a few times with it - but then always get some interest / thanks from someone for playing it - so I can live with that pete
