MOTOWN’S 50TH CD

Well it seems that the fans of Motown have decided – and the results are most definitely in. We told you back in late August that Universal Music was releasing a ‘best of Motown’ compilation called ‘Motown 50 – Yesterday, Today, Forever’ and that you had the chance to vote on the tracks you wanted to see on it. The tracklisting has just been revealed for the UK release, which goes on sale on December 01 – and it features all the usual suspects, from Diana Ross to Martha Reeves, Stevie Wonder, Mary Wells, The Jackson 5, The Temptations, Marvin Gaye and The Four Tops just to name a few. There are 61 tracks spread over the three CD set. Australian fans, however, are set to wait a little while longer for their tracklisting to be revealed – the compilation isn’t out in Australia until January 17 next year, just five days after Motown’s official 50th anniversary.
