Why Unreleased Marvin Gaye, Supremes, Beach Boys Tracks Are Suddenly Appearing: EU Copyright Law On Dec 30th, without much fanfare or marketing, Universal Music Group put out Motown Unreleased: 1966, a digital-only collection of 80 previously unavailable tracks by Marvin Gaye, The Supremes, and lesser-known performers like the Underdogs. It’s one of a few recent archival releases of music from 1966 that may appeal to hardcore fans – and they have the European Union to thank. In 2011, the EU updated copyright law in a way that means officially unreleased material could fall into the public domain 50 years after it was recorded. That would mean any company would be free to release it. In order to keep the copyright to such recordings – the law applies to live as well as studio material – artists and labels have been releasing them in what some fans call “copyright collections.” No one involved with Motown Unreleased: 1966 has said... full story via... https://www.billboard.com/articles/business/7654212/why-unreleased-marvin-gaye-supremes-beach-boys-tracks-are-suddenly

ok checked out some media providers uk versions spotify, deezer, groove all have the previous unreleased available motown unreleased releases to listen in full if signed in but not the latest motown unreleased 1966 usa services appear to have it available to listen in full etc so guess for official listening uk wise its a case of wait and see if it shows up here...

anyone uk based managed to either buy or listen in full via proper online services ? see that motown unreleased 1965, 64, 63 etc is available in full via deezer uk
from here looks and reads like a pure digital release Dave am guessing that the 80+ track listing being split into disc lists may be an online commerce thing happy new year mike
