PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

2007 original US issue limited edition 5 compact disc set comprising an 120-track collection chronicling a pivotal year for “The Sound Of Young America,” continuing series of every Motown single of the Detroit era. It’s Motown’s ninth year in existence, and “Hitsville USA” is now rolling – fully three-quarters of all of its single A-side releases hit the charts. All of those hits are in this volume, of course, as well as every B-side, every planned single, every alternate pressing, each mastered from the original singles masters in the Motown vault.   It also features a reproduction 45-rpm single from its era; in this case, it’s Gladys Knight and The Pips’ “I Heard It Through The Grapevine” (Yes, it plays!).     Motown was not simply having more hits; its output was just getting better.

 

“The irresistible charm of early Motown was still conspicuous, but the songwriting and production techniques had been sharpened… to make each record better than the last,” write author and Detroit native Herb Jordan in his fabulous booklet essay.             It’s the year Marvin Gaye, losing out on a live album release of standards, is paired with Tammi Terrell. They’re given songs by newcomers Ashford and Simpson. It’s the year producer Norman Whitfield, with a returning Barrett Strong, loses out on a release of Gaye’s version of “I Heard It Through The Grapevine,” so he cuts a new one on Gladys Knight and The Pips. The Supremes, still making No. 1 records, officially become “Diana Ross &…” Martha & The Vandellas add “Reeves…” The Miracles formalize “Smokey Robinson &…” It’s the year of Motown’s first annual sales convention, ably described in a personal essay by Barney Ales, Motown’s head of sales during the era.             It’s also the year of fractured relationships, as Florence Ballad leaves the Supremes. As Holland-Dozier-Holland plan to leave Motown. And as the summer explodes with riots in downtown Detroit. But the great songs keep coming.             The story of Motown in 1967 is all here, over five discs. Included are rare cuts, promo-only singles, and several surprising alternate mixes, from Stevie Wonder’s “I’m Wondering” to the Temptations B-side, “I Truly, Truly Believe,” with a forgotten alternate lead vocal! The fantastic packaging includes essays by Jordan and Ales, as well as the extraordinary track-by-track details by Keith Hughes and Bill Dahl the series is known for. Also featured are rare photos and classic Motown record ads.

All comes packaged in a superb hardback picture book box. This set remains sealed from new in the original manufactur's shrink wrap and therefore mind and unplayed!. The shrink wrap is still intact with no tears and the cover is in excellent condition with no bent corners, gouges or other flaws. An absolutely stunning copy. Any visible white spots are shine from the lighting and are NOT defects. See the images to the bottom of the page

Prices for this 2007 US HIP-O SELECT sealed and authentic copy of “The Complete Motown Singles, Vol. 7: 1967” set continue to rise, even before it was reissued -due to the high demand- by UNIVERSAL in UK in 2009. With originally only 6,000 copies available in North America   the collection is set to become one of the most sought after releases of the Motown’s output.   Most copies that surface are the later UK issue, but it is the set of mega-rare 1st US release that fetches high prices when ever turn up in sealed condition. So do your research and ask the right question before you buy this.

Don't miss your chance to complete your collection with this must have release for any fan of the MOTOWN HISTORY in superb condition. Most of the songs contained on this set are unavailable anywhere else; many had never been re-released on vinyl, let alone on compact disc.

This is my very last copy. I will not be getting this in stock. Do not second guess yourself on this masterpiece because once sold out, it’s gone for good, so act now.
