In 1970, Motown was experiencing changes. Diana Ross went solo while the Supremes went Top 10 without her. Jacksonmania was in full effect. Stevie Wonder began producing himself. Rare Earth had an unexpected hit and so did the Miracles, forcing Smokey Robinson to put on hold his departure from the group. With this collection, there's so much more with promotion-only mixes and rare tracks that populate the booklet. Carving out the narrative is an introduction by famed artist manager John Reid, who was then Tamla Motown's label manager in the U.K. Duke University's Mark Anthony Neal provides the historical overview. The booklet includes track-by-track annotations as well as deeply researched stories behind the songs by Keith Hughes and Bill Dahl. Average Rating:
