How Music Changed Part 137-29: Every Single Motown 'A-Side' Part 29

episode date - December 5, 2008

In some ways this is the quintessential Motown program from our series. In other ways, they are ALL quintessential, but this is the first show that exclusively covers music from the year 1966, a year when Motown’s domination was well known, and widespread. It also has a typical mixture of fabulously famous hits, a few lesser-known gems, and a handful of rarities that go to show just how limitless the talent pool was in Detroit in the mid-sixties.

This show covers;

1) One More Heartache – Marvin Gaye

2) Shake Me Wake Me (When It’s Over) – The Four Tops

3) Get Ready – TheTemptations

4) Helpless – Kim Weston

5) Greetings (This Is Uncle Sam) – The Monitors

6) I Miss You Baby (How I Miss You) – Marv Johnson

7) Slender Thread – Billy Eckstine

8) What’s Easy for Two Is Hard for One – Connie Haines

9) Keep on Lovin’ Me – Frances Nero

10) (I’m a) Road Runner – Jr. Walker & the All Stars

11) Function at the Junction – Shorty Long

12) Truly Yours – The Spinners
