Guest Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 The Gladys Knight track is beautiful- I bought an tape at the 100club of unreleased Motown and it was on there. Recording was shite though and the track stopped 3/4 way thru.... Any chance of putting a soundfile of it up here?? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

timthemod Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 All the recording of this top Gladys Knight track are poor scratchy quality, even the one on the spectrum CD. They must have lost/misplaced the mastertape. The spectrum tracks must be a vinyl acetate dub. TTM Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Tony Smith Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 Butch has the original acetate which is far from poor and scratchy! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
