Originally unissued Motown tracks available on vinyl 7" for the first time.

"Any Girl in Love" by Gladys Knight & The Pips was a big surprise to me.  I don't recall ever having heard that song.  We had, of course, screened Kim Weston's version for placement in the "From The Vaults" LP series.  And I like that one slightly better.  But Gladys Knight's version is also very good.  I especially like that an extra track with a sax solo was added to the break.  But, I like Kim's vocal better, and also like The Temptations' background vocals better than The Pips.

I find it interesting that Johnny Bristol wrote and produced a new song for Martha and The Vandellas in 1969 that copies their first hit style from 1963, from "Heatwave", which already had a couple clones in "Quicksand" and "Live Wire".  I guess that after 2 years of diminishing sales, he thought to gamble  on going back to what made them popular.  It's good, but not very memorable, because it sounds like several (many?) other Motown songs.

Nice that these new 7 inchers have been made available for 45 collectors.

Had to order even though have a couple of the tracks.
