  1. For anyone in the U.S., it looks like CFOM Vol.5 will be available on October 1st.
  2. Yes but ....... If you look at the 1st version I posted, the info is WIL 190303 and it's the 2:51 version, the 2nd copy is WIL-193302 - the 2:46 version. Chalky's copy shows 190203 and is also the 2:51 version which is why I suggested a typo. The Complete Motown Singles- Vol. 6 - 1966 only shows 2 versions released.
  3. I've got to admit that looks like WIL-190203. But on this cleaner variation that looks like it came from the same pressing plant, the number looks like WIL-190302. So I don't know if your label has a typo or if that number is a 3 instead of a 2.
  4. Marvin's "Take This Heart Of Mine" also came out with 2 different versions-
  5. i guess what started out as a good idea for promotion ( handwriting each disc jockey's name on the label) turned out to be way too much work and so they just left Leo the Lion on the deejay copies.
  6. According to "The Complete Motown Singles- Vol. 6- 1966, there are 2 different mixes to "This Old Heart...". Brian Holland mixed the 1st version and Lawrence Horn did the 2nd mix which has more echo and a few things added. Not sure which is which though . According to my cd player, the 1st version is longer.
  7. I'm pretty sure that MGM used the lion on demos from the early 50's (maybe even late 40's) until sometime in 1968. Here are 2 promos from '68 one with and without the cartoon character-
  8. I don't think Barbara's version of "I'm So Thankful" fits that scenario. According to the Don't Forget The Motor City web site, the Ikettes version of the song was recorded on August 14, 1965. The Barbara Randolph version of "I'm So Thankful" was recorded on March 31, 1967- almost a year and a half later ! "The Touch Of Venus" would make a bit more sense- Marvin's version was recorded on June 22, 1964, Patrice Holloway's version on September 10, 1964. Sandy Wynn's version is hard to pin point -it was probably recorded soon after Patrice's version. Sandy's 45 had a late '64/ early '65 release.
  9. This was a really tough contest-especially the last 2! Thanks to flaming emeralds for putting this together (which I'm sure took a lot of time). Happy to see so much participation !
  10. Any idea when this will be available in the U.S. ? I've tried Amazon, Dusty Groove, e-bay and discogs (if you type in Cellar Full of Motown, it brings up a Patti Labelle????? CD) . There's no mention of it on any U.S. sites.
  11. 37= "I Travel Alone" ?
  12. 54= "She'll Come Running Back "
  13. #37- "I'm Com'un Home in The Morn'un" ?? #50 - "That Beatin' Rhythm"
  14. #12= "Footsee" ?
  15. 24- "Blowing Up My Mind" - Exciters 41- "Party Time Man" - Futures 15- "Walking Up A One Way Street" Willie Tee
  16. # 3- "Love, Love, Love" - Bobby Hebb #43- "I Cry Myself To Sleep" - Rhetta Hughes (?) #45- "Looking For You" - Garnet Mimms
  17. Even though the label designs are completely different, both 45's have the same release #
  18. Sad to hear this! Whether she was Sandy Wynns, a member of the Honey Cone, or Edna Wright, she always could be counted on for great vocals. R.I.P Edna !
