Satisfaction Guaranteed - Motown Guys 1961-69 - Kent magazine cover

Another recent release from Kent that pushes the right buttons.

 

Satisfaction Guaranteed - Motown Guys 1961-69 is the result of another dip in the vaults from compilers Keith Hughes and Mick Patrick, this the 13th motown related Ace release is a noteable one, as its said its the first that will consist entirely of tracks never released before on either vinyl or CD

 

Release notes on the Kent website from Tony Rounce include the following words...

"The collection features just about all of the label’s most eminent male artists. The Temptations, Four Tops, Miracles, Shorty Long, Marvin Gaye, Jimmy Ruffin and Jr Walker all appear with sides of such quality that you’ll wonder why they were not issued. Add goodies from pioneer Motown acts the Quails, Gino Parks, Marv Johnson, the Contours and Freddie Gorman, sides from later signings the Fantastic Four, Chuck Jackson, Edwin Starr and Bobby Taylor, a killer from the Spinners, gems from underrated one-shots the Hit Pack, Headliners, Serenaders and Bruce Channel and vocal outings from Ivy Jo Hunter, Frank Wilson and Johnny Bristol — fellows who, during their Motown years, were better known for their writing and production skills — and you have a heck of a compilation"

This is competing with the Contours - Just a Little Misunderstanding compilation for best CD of 2014. If you haven't bought it yet, you definitely should.

Agree...a more finished / Motownesque rendition of the original Sidney Barnes acetate take, which still stands strong itself.

Fantastic CD.  Motown just do not realise or appreciate some of the material they canned.
