Guest WPaulVanDyk Posted July 13, 2010 Posted July 13, 2010 Motown never ceases to amaze us with new cellerfull of motown cd's and extra stuff on cd's away from what people know
Gogger Posted August 6, 2010 Posted August 6, 2010 release date 23rd august , avaliable to pre order on amazon £8: 99
Guest Posted August 6, 2010 Posted August 6, 2010 Keep an eye (sorry bowt the pun) on S Wonder track, a beaut! Also Holland Dozier I'm told is a revamp of a fairly well known Motown track Interestuingly exchange of J Weatherspoon choons viz a viz D Edwards & Fantastic 4 Should be a crackaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Guest isis Posted August 6, 2010 Posted August 6, 2010 8.99? ... worth that for the Brenda Holloway track alone
Wilxy Posted August 7, 2010 Posted August 7, 2010 Whilst appreciating the compilations release, it would be even more satisfying to be dripfed the obvious wealth of "vault" material on a more regular basis, than the repackaged, repackaged, repackaged.....etc.
Guest Paul Posted August 7, 2010 Posted August 7, 2010 Whilst appreciating the compilations release, it would be even more satisfying to be dripfed the obvious wealth of "vault" material on a more regular basis, than the repackaged, repackaged, repackaged.....etc. It's a great series and excellent value for money but it's almost three years since Vol 3. That's a hell of a long time for an impatient young lad like me.

Chalky Posted August 29, 2010 Posted August 29, 2010 Anyone actually listened to this package yet? Listened to disc one on the way home from Lifeline this morning and got to say it wasn't very good at all, that's being polite. You can see when you listen why most of these were left in the can, really poor effort and really think they are scraping the bottom of the barrel for some of these tracks now. Couldn't face disc two so put the new Kent Ballads Cd on, class!!!
Guest TONY ROUNCE Posted August 29, 2010 Posted August 29, 2010 Anyone actually listened to this package yet? ...well, given that it's not supposed to be on sale anywhere until Tuesday, and that Amazon haven't shipped their pre-orders yet, I would imagine that very few people on here have 'actually listened to this package yet'... I'm not expecting wall to wall stompers, so I'm sure I'm going to enjoy it as much as I've enjoyed the other three.
Chalky Posted August 29, 2010 Posted August 29, 2010 ...well, given that it's not supposed to be on sale anywhere until Tuesday, and that Amazon haven't shipped their pre-orders yet, I would imagine that very few people on here have 'actually listened to this package yet'... I'm not expecting wall to wall stompers, so I'm sure I'm going to enjoy it as much as I've enjoyed the other three. I thought it was on general release now Tone. I wasn't expecting wall to wall stompers but I was expecting better than what I've heard. I've got the other three and they were all good but this one a big disappointment to be honest. The Motown stars are there, polished as ever, harmonies you would expect but the tracks are pretty poor and average at best, as i said you can see why some were canned.
BrianB Posted August 29, 2010 Posted August 29, 2010 I am pretty sure someone on here (I think Pete Smith) said Volume 3 was scraping the bottom of the barrel. I wonder if whover it was still has the same opinion or have the tracks sounded better after a few hearings? Must admit I am really looking forward to it. Hope I'm not disappointed.
Chalky Posted August 29, 2010 Posted August 29, 2010 some of the versions are no better than what is already out there. Some tracks such as the opening one, The Blackberries - Kidnapped is simply terrible. It wasn't my copy and on hearing it I can't see me buying one.
redcoupe Posted August 29, 2010 Posted August 29, 2010 just sent for one off asda site £8.93 inc postage 2 cd your not getting robbed even if you listen to it once and then in the rack with the others says 3 days del wait and see...keith
Gogger Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 just allowed myself a quick preivew as mine is still in the post, one or two tracks didn't hit the spot straight away, put was impressed with most tracks, for 6.99 i think i will be happy with this buy.
Guest Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 (edited) https://open.spotify....CO4gtXnoO1qZES7 Thanks for that, especially as I had typed in the title in Spotify search and came up with nothing! Possibly now thinking that because I typed "volume" as opposed to "vol" it didn't see it. I now have it playing through my stereo, but am £9 shorter because I ordered it when I din't need to as I use Spotify Premium and can play it through that! That would've bought a take away curry....... Must say I do like "My baby changes like the weather"! Edited August 30, 2010 by craig strong

Guest Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 I believe there are a fair few tracks that are from around 62/64, before the "trade mark" hitsville sound was used ubiquitously , and I have to say they don't do a lot for me, but there are still many others that hit the spot too. A good buy for £9,
Soulfinger Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 Mine arrived today. Miss Lonely Heart - The Vandellas, I'll Turn to Stone - Dennis Edwards (Did Chris King have this a while back - as the Contours?) Lead Me and Guide Me - ?Holland-Dozier? hit the spot nicely first time through.
Guest TONY ROUNCE Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 Mine arrived today. Miss Lonely Heart - The Vandellas, I'll Turn to Stone - Dennis Edwards (Did Chris King have this a while back - as the Contours?) Lead Me and Guide Me - ?Holland-Dozier? hit the spot nicely first time through. Just had an overnight e-mail from Amazon saying that release has been delayed and thet they don't now expect to be shipping until next Monday at the earliest. Where are all these physical copies 'arriving' from, if that's the case? Or are some Sourcers being just the teeeeeeeeeniiiiiiesssssst bit economical with the truth?
Guest Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 It's a great series and excellent value for money but it's almost three years since Vol 3. That's a hell of a long time for an impatient young lad like me. Just seen this Malc

Miss Lonely Heart - The Vandellas, I'll Turn to Stone - Dennis Edwards (Did Chris King have this a while back - as the Contours?) Lead Me and Guide Me - ?Holland-Dozier? hit the spot nicely first time through. Correct - 10 house points for paying attention . Malc
Chalky Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 Dunno what you mean by economical with the truth Tony? The copy I listened to (and it was a genuine copy) was collected at the Lifeline all-nighter.
Linda4me Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 Just had an overnight e-mail from Amazon saying that release has been delayed and thet they don't now expect to be shipping until next Monday at the earliest.

Had an e-mail from amazon saturday saying it had been shipped ?? and another today saying the cd had been reduced in price to £6.99 so ive save 2 quid
timthemod Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 Had an e-mail from amazon saturday saying it had been shipped ?? and another today saying the cd had been reduced in price to £6.99 so ive save 2 quid Got mind yesterday from Amazon UK, had a quick listen and love some tracks on first listen. You can't get this much value for £6.99.
Bigsoulman Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 Got mind yesterday from Amazon UK, had a quick listen and love some tracks on first listen. You can't get this much value for £6.99. Where does it say £6.99? it's still £8.99 on my Amazon site
Chalky Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 I'd wait a while, it'll soon be £4.99 like the other 3
timthemod Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 Where does it say £6.99? it's still £8.99 on my Amazon site I pre-ordered mine, and received an email saying it had been reduced to £6.99
Gogger Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 I pre-ordered mine, and received an email saying it had been reduced to £6.99 i pre ordered mine from amazon at 8.99, came via a company called indigo starfish for 6.99, also got e mail from amazon saying i had saved myself 2.00, i am happy.

Not in the least economical with the truth. It came from Amazon actually Tony. The bastards are lying to you. It came with the Tom Moulton - so double joy.
Guest Posted September 7, 2010 Posted September 7, 2010 (edited) I had ordered mine from Play.com for £8.95, but as it still is out of stock, so I've cancelled the order, and will get it from Amazon instead, as many bargain hunters here have done! Except it says it is still £8.99 on their site...............? And isn't it a bit strange that if you download the album, it is still £8.93, and you don't get the case or album info etc......???????

It's the same with most download albums, same with ebooks aswell
Guest Paul Posted September 8, 2010 Posted September 8, 2010 I moaned about Universal taking almost three years to issue Vol 4 but now that it's out I have to agree the standard is gradually falling. It's all subjective but I reckon many of the unreleased tracks just weren't up to Motown's usual standard. Having said that, I always find at least half a dozen gems out of 50 tracks on each volume. It may be a low ratio but these albums are cheap. I've only heard Vol 4 a few times (so far) but I really like the following tracks... Fantastic Four - Keep On Tryin' Till You Find Love Fantastic Four - Take Him Back If It Makes You Happy (...also a great version of this song by The Contours on Vol 2) Ivy Joe Hunter - Only A Lonely Man Would Know The Vows - My Baby Changes Like The Weather Blinky - It's Gonna Be Always The Vandellas - Miss Lonely Hearts Dennis Edwards - I'll Turn To Stone So it's well worth the price. Best wishes, Paul
Guest TONY ROUNCE Posted September 9, 2010 Posted September 9, 2010 I just got the notification from Amazon yesterday that they were shipping, so I guess that mine will finally come in time for the weekend. Can't hardly wait., as they say... And to anyone who says they got it from Amazon prior to this week, well, I just don't believe you. Not one of the 20 or so people who I've asked, and who I know have ordered it from Amazon, have received theirs as of last weekend; why should it be any different for some others on here?
Guest REVILOT Posted September 9, 2010 Posted September 9, 2010 I also got Amazon notification yesterday and Paul is right, always a few worthwhile tracks and at the price of less than 2 packets of fags it's well worth indulging in.

Best wishes, Paul ivy joe hunter is the stand out track for me, worth the price of the cd for that alone
Pete S Posted September 9, 2010 Posted September 9, 2010 they should have left it at 2 volumes really...I won't even buy this, the best stuff came out years ago.
