How Music Changed Part 137-27: Every Single Motown 'A-Side' Part 27

episode date - November 21, 2008

The 27th episode of our extensive Motown coverage finds the label at the peak of its powers.

In 1965, Motown sold more records than any other label. This show indicates a few of the reasons why that happened, along with a few other examples of songs that didn’t help their cause (at least not on the pop charts).

Here’s what is covered in today’s program;

1) I Can’t Help Myself (Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch) – Earl Van Dyke/The Soul Brothers

2) I Hear a Symphony – The Supremes

3) As Long As There Is L-O-V-E Love – Jimmy Ruffin

4) We Call It Fun – The Headliners

5) Something About You – The Four Tops

6) I’ve Been Cheated - The Dalton Boys

7) Let’s Go Somewhere – R. Dean Taylor

8) Say You – The Monitors

9) I Can’t Believe You Love Me – Tami Terrell

10) You’re Gonna Love My Baby – Barbara McNair

11) Children’s Christmas Song – The Supremes

12) Twinkle Twinkle Little Me – The Supremes

13) Uptight (Everything’s Alright) – Stevie Wonder
