MARTHA REEVES Dancin' In The Streets VERY RARE Soul LP

$

256

Up for auction is a very rare item from Martha Reeves , entitled "Dancin' In The Streets".

Here is the story behind the LP (courtesy of IMDB):
Martha recorded another album in 1975, after her 1974 debut for MCA. The album, which is titled "Rainbow," is extremely hard to find; both the original pressings, and the alternately-titled re-issue. The album was not promoted well, and it did not help that the label (which only a few who own the album know by name) folded shortly after its release. In 1982 Phonorama acquired the licensing for the tracks, and re-titled the album "Dancin' in the Street" based on the fact that Martha re-recorded her famous hit for the project. The 1982 re-issue copies go for anywhere as high as $600, while the rare original pressings go $1,000 or more. Those who are avid fans of Reeves have debated it to be her best album ever."

this is the Phonorama pressing from 1982 , the tracklisting is:

side 1
Feel Like Makin' Love
My Baby Loves Me
Hearts On Fire
Circle Of Love
Be Grateful

side 2
Dancin In The Streets
Don't You Ever Take Your Love
Can't Take It No More
Light In The Long Run
The Thrill Is Gone

I don't know if this has been listed on Ebay before, there is little to no information available for this record , but I can tell you it sounds great . Less of a Motown , but more of a modern soul sound on the songs.
