Popular Post Cunnie Posted October 30, 2013 Popular Post Posted October 30, 2013 OK I know it's still October but I'm sure there will be plenty of partners & loved one's out there already racking their brains trying to find you something for Christmas that is somehow Soul related so I thought I'd start a thread to guide them in the right direction. Sure that a few things on here will be a bit more welcome than the usual socks & slippers. First thing that caught my eye was the Richard Searling compiled Motown 7" boxset that can be viewed on the link below. Some very nice tracks in it on 7" vinyl for the first time like the Spinners - What More Could A Boy Ask For. https://store.universal-music.co.uk/restofworld/soul+r+b/various-artists-the-motown-7s-box/invt/0600753454251 Now feel free to post some sensible suggestions & get yourself something you really want from Santa for a change. 5

Steve S 60 Posted November 8, 2013 Posted November 8, 2013 any previously unreleased tracks on this one ? No, I think they've all had a release on Motown or its subsidiaries. Does come with a free download code for mp3 versions of all the songs, which is handy. 1

Dave Rimmer Posted November 14, 2013 Posted November 14, 2013 Should know by the weekend because I had an email yesterday from Universal saying it had been dispatched. I would guess, and this is only a guess that they wioll be on the old black and silver label rather than the blue one. 1
Linda4me Posted November 14, 2013 Posted November 14, 2013 I am tempted to get it,who is doing the best deal ? I think amazon is post free thanks
Daved Posted November 14, 2013 Posted November 14, 2013 This Donny Hathaway anthology is fantastic. It includes a CD of unreleased material and a superb booklet https://www.amazon.co.uk/Never-My-Love-The-Anthology/dp/B00F6283MO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1384432617&sr=8-1&keywords=donny+hathaway+never+my+love 2
Britmusicsoulfan Posted November 14, 2013 Posted November 14, 2013 @Daved, the Donny Hathaway box is on my list. I also have the Arctic Records CD box on my wish list (which seems to grow by the day). 1
Daved Posted November 14, 2013 Posted November 14, 2013 You won't be disappointed. I'm listening to the third CD as I type. The man was an all time great. Some of the songs are really sad, especially when you consider his early death. The unreleased stuff is fascinating. Memory of our Love has got to be the best previously unreleased song of the year.
Cunnie Posted November 14, 2013 Author Posted November 14, 2013 Suppose some of you will want something to carry these records about in. Got one of these earlier this year & they are top quality.https://www.juno.co.uk/products/magma-7-single-bag-150-ii-black/341640-01/ 1
Mr Smithy Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 Short memories you lot, most of you committed to helping that guy out with his 5 remaining NS weskits.

Steve S 60 Posted December 13, 2013 Posted December 13, 2013 Complete Motown Singles Volume 12B has plummeted in price to £26 on Amazon. I think it was originally up for £60. Release date 6th Jan, so a late Christmas present. https://www.amazon.co.uk/The-Complete-Motown-Singles-Vol/dp/B00F4386VS/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1386930446&sr=8-2&keywords=motown
