Fascinating stuff. Just 69?

I thought the whole archives had been gone through.

Can it be assumed the 'most commercial' 60 have been released?

Somebody needs to go through the unreleased part of this find PDQ....and find the real Northern stuff!

Motown also did "motown unreleased" 1967 and 1968 parts 1 and 2 a couple of years ago they are on amazon.

They have been coming out for a few years now. Started with 1962. Probably released before they are out of copyright.

some amazing stuff on the 1967 one

WOW!!!   "One Lucky Day, I Found You" by The Volumes is Fantastic!!!!  As good as Harry Balk's and Duke Browners' jobs with The Lollipops.  There are still Classic Motown cuts in The Vault I've never heard!  Amazing that they keep appearing. 🤩

Downloaded all the years of Amazon over the past few years. Some fantastic tracks on them but whoever decides which ones to release is not a Motown/Northern fan as there must be far better tracks to release. (unless we are getting to the end of unreleased /discovered tracks) But nevertheless a must for Motown fans.

I doubt there are many left unreleased? The whole point of releasing them is for copyright protection otherwise they fall into the public domain....I think.

Yes, each year, now, we will find out what is left in the vaults that hadn't yet been released.  So, there should be almost nothing left but a couple of stray misplaced (and currently unknown) acetates possibly to be found from the pre-1970 period, and only 1970-88 to find any others.

I think the Frank Wilson - Look Out Your window ,a cover or demo of a Four Tops album track is absolutely stunning , lyrically and musically .The Edwin Starr “ Pain of my loneliness “ is another stunner ,crying out to be played at a venue .

Richard Searling has done a few of his radio shows which have picked over the batches that have been released this way for each previous year.. You should be able to find those on mixcloud, I think. He's mentioned a few times on these, proposals for vinyl / CD releases but suggests they're not interested...
