MOTOWN SINGLES series: VOL. 11

The Complete Motown Singles Vol. 11A: 1971 covers just the first six months of the year, when America was facing a decade of reconstruction- the optimism of the sixties had been shattered by escalation of the Vietnam War and political instability.

And Marvin Gaye asked, "What's Going On?" Motown, too, was undergoing its own reconstruction, taking small steps toward album projects, and a world beyond Detroit. Stevie Wonder turned 21. The Jackson 5 continued their hot streak, as did Rare Earth and Gladys Knight & the Pips. Norman Whitfield created the Undisputed Truth. Eddie Kendricks left the Temptations to go solo-but Diana Ross was the emerging solo star. All of their hits (and B-sides) from the first half of 1971 are here in this awesome set, plus fascinating company experiments with "religious rock,"

 CD set will be available from 18th of november  Pre-Order this set on Amazon.comir?t=theultimatebl-20&l=ur2&o=1

Their Hollywood Music In Media award (HMMA) nominated single, “F.U.N” is an infectious, provocative bass driven nod to old-school hip-hop and R&B. Prior to joining musical forces in 2006, both artists worked with hip-hop pioneer Melle Mel (Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five). Savage, a member of the Furious 5, also released a self-titled album where his hit single “Palm of Her Hand” became the theme music for BET’s ‘Video Soul.’ JayQuan’s rich musical history includes working with Melle Mel and Grandmaster Caz.
