The Motown Story - 1970
Compiled By Blues & Soul Magazine
In 1970 the now well established Blues & Soul magazine compiled a 36 page FULL COLOUR magazine in tribute to the unparalleled achievements of Hitsville over the last 10 years.
Littered with full-colored artist pics to accompany in-depth biographies.
Artists as you’d expect cover - Diana Ross & the Supremes 4 group photo’s, Mary Wells, Kim Weston, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, Jackson Five, Four Tops, Edwin Starr, Marv Johnson, Rare Earth (full page pic), Elgins, Isley Brothers, Contours, Bobby taylor, Jimmy Ruffin.
Full-colour centerfold 6 x LP EMI advert.
2nd 1/2 is more colour & black and white artist pic to accompany artist biographies of Junior Walker and the All stars, Kiki Dee, Chuck Jackson, Marvelletes, The Spinners, Smokey Robinson and The Miracles, The Temptations, Gladys Knight & The Pips, Martha & The Vandellas.
Plus a unique and complete UK singles and album discography that was still available to order in 1970.
followed by more artist pic and bio’s of Brenda Holloway, Blinky, Velvelettes, Fantastic Four, The Originals,Shorty Long and finally the beautiful Tammi Terrell.
Is there a finer more in-depth tribute to Tamla Motown in magazine form, we think not. A a cost a 5 Shillings in 1970 - 42 years on this tribute stands as a lasting testament to greatest independent record company in history.
Ironically this is the hardest of all the Blues & Soul publications to find.
