50 years of Motown no. 28-The Isley Brothers "This old heart of mine"
Two days to go to the big night! Unreal legends of Black music who had close ties with everyone from Jimi Hendrix to the Beatles and there is still an incarnation of them out there making music!

50 years of Motown numbers 31, 30 and 29! The Temptations, The Four Tops and the Marvelettes
I'm running behind a bit so here are three more give it up for the Funk Brothers and Norman Whitfield too, these guys were at the crux of the Motown sound and rarely get credit. I did a 2 hour radio show last year after Norman died out of the love of his music. His passing barely warranted a mention in the mainstream media. The Funk Brothers finally got overdue recognition in the fantastic 'Standing in the Shadows of Motown" movie, which was superb (I actually shed a tear or two during it). The party at the Pavilion is now 3 days away I hope you are ready to dance! Aswell as two classic from two of Motowns foremost bands i've included the highly influential "Hunter gets captured by the game" by the Marvelettes too, a record that was particularly influential to many gay soul fans, and another Smokey Robinson penned classic.
Number 31
The Temptations "Papa was a Rolling Stone"
Number 30
The Four Tops "It's the same old song"
Number 29
The Marvelettes "The Hunter gets captured by the game"

50 years of Motown no. 33-Frank Wilson "Do I Love You"
The fact that is probably the worlds most expensive record does not make a difference to me. The fact that is another Motown killer means it deserves a place here though! (I've also included the Chris Clark version) Check out classic northern soul like this downstairs in the Pav tomorrow with Phil Hope, who will also be joining us on our Motown special this Friday night at Jam!

50 years of Motown no. 35 and my Give me the night track-The Four Tops-'Reach out (I'll be there)"
More musical perfection from Holland-Dozier-Holland and the Four Tops, with the legendary Levi Stubbs on fire!
50 years of Motown no. 36-Willie Hutch "Brothers Gonna work it out"
Blazing social commentary from Willie Hutch. Everyone from Public Enemy to the Chemicals adopted the phrase, and the track itself still sounds amazing. Not your conventional Motown sound, but a reminder of how far to the left they travelled sonically in the 1970's. Check out our tribute on Friday night at Jam in the Pavilion.
50 years of Motown no.39-The Supremes-"Come see about Me"
Number 50-The Supremes-"Come see about Me"
We are running a big night in Jam on Friday to celebrate the 50th anniversary of one of the best record labels of all time. On my blog i'm gonna selecting 50 of my favourites over the next couple of weeks, continuing today with another from the Supremes!
