Two years later EMI U.K. created the Tamla Motown imprint, an international umbrella for the company’s multi-label output.

  • UPDATED & REVISED 5 EDITION* Cover Design by Bob Mcgrath
    UPDATED & REVISED 5th EDITION* Cover design by Bob McGrath CAJUN RECORDS 1946-1989 – A DISCOGRAPHY © Nick Leigh 2019 INTRODUCTION TO THE REVISED EDITIONS I began collecting blues records in 1959 but it was another 7 years before I heard Cleveland Crochet & the Sugar Bees on the Storyville anthology “Louisiana Blues”. My appetite whetted, I wanted more. Buying the Iry Le Jeune LPs on Goldband a few months later (not one but two volumes – and purchased as imports on a student’s allowance!) fuelled an appreciation of Cajun music that has remained undiminished. In the mid 1960s, however, there was little information available about the great music I was listening to, other than the catalogues I obtained from Goldband and Swallow, and the early articles by Mike Leadbitter and John Broven in “Blues Unlimited” and “Jazz Journal”. Thanks to people like Mike, John, Neil Slaven, Rob Ford and Les Fancourt there is now a lot of information available to provide the background to blues and rhythm & blues recordings. However much of the information about the post World War 2 music of South Louisiana in general and the French (Cajun) recordings in particular, remains elusive. So far as I know no single ‘discography’ of post-war Cajun record releases has been published and I thought I would try to correct this oversight. This is notwithstanding the increasing amount of well researched material about the music in general and individual artists. Therefore I take only limited credit for the information included herein about the recordings. My aim has been to bring that material together in a single document.

  • Interview with MARY WILSON Was Conducted by the Library of Congress on April 2, 2018
    This interview with MARY WILSON was conducted by the Library of Congress on April 2, 2018 Mary Wilson Photo credit: Alan Mercer Library of Congress: Can you tell me about the first time “Where Did Our Love Go?” was presented to you as a song to be recorded? Mary Wilson: We had already released five, or six, or seven singles and they had been received locally very well in Detroit, and the surrounding area, but we had never had a big, national chart hit and Berry Gordy was like, “We’ve got to get the girls a hit record.” That’s when he put us with his top writing team Holland, Dozier and Holland. HDH came up with “When the Lovelight Starts Shining Through His Eyes” and we thought we were on our way with a hit record. Motown then released “Run Run Run”—it never made the charts at all--but “Lovelight” made the charts and we thought, “We’re on the right track.” We kept on trying. One day HDH said they had just come up with some smashes; that’s what they used to say when they felt they had a hit! We were brought several songs to listen to as I recall. When we heard “Where Did Our Love Go?” none of us was really excited about it. I remembered saying to Eddie Holland that if we didn’t get a hit record our parents were going to make us go to college. He said, “Trust me, Mary, this song is going to be a hit.” The reason that we did not care for “Where Did Our Love Go” was that we wanted a song more like the other girl groups, with more R&B driven rhythm, like the Marvellettes and the Vandellas; after all we were the first girl group to sign with Motown.

  • The Heart of Rock and Soul by Dave Marsh
    The Heart of Rock and Soul by Dave Marsh 4 REACH OUT I'LL BE THERE, The Four Tops Produced by Brian Holland and Lamont Dozier; written by Brian Holland, Lamont Dozier, and Eddie Holland Motown 1098 1966 Billboard: #1 (2 weeks) The shibboleth is that pop music -- from jazz to soul to punk -- is better off as a purely expressive vehicle in which feeling overwhelms thinking. But that's a dangerously sentimental delusion. The fact is, working in a strictly defined, even formulaic context, Holland-Dozier-Holland and Levi Stubbs came up with a record that is a match for anything in the history of rock and roll. It was in part the restrictions of Motown and Top 40 pop which made it possible, by establishing the tension that the producers and performers worked against. "Reach Out" is perhaps the truest single of all: Motown has released "Reach Out" dozens of times, on every medium from singles to CDs, but not one of the remasterings comes close to the sheer sonic crunch of the seven-inch 45. (Not just the Motown "map label" original; even reissued singles will put away any LP track or even the digitalized CD.) Unfortunately, in the squinched-up versions most often available, most of the things that make this the greatest Holland-Dozier-Holland record are missing. The sheer size of the sound, its physical impact; the wild echo that makes the countermelody carried by the flute exotic and eerie; equalization that polarizes voice and drums; the producers' use of what must have been about half of the Detroit Symphony as an adjunct rhythm section; whatever the hell it is that establishes the clip-clap rhythm in the intro.
