Various Artists - One Track Mind! More Motown Guys / Various - Music & Performance - CD

UK collection. Motown was always the sound of dance music. During the novelty dance era in the early 1960s, the company celebrated the Twist, the Monkey, the Jerk, the Twine and even the Uncle Willie as these crazes came and went. By the mid-‘60s Motown had begun to turn their kind of dance music into an art form, with the rhythm section of the Funk Brothers providing the underpinning and the string and horn arrangements of Paul Riser (among others) supplying the sweetening on top. As the ‘60s drew to a close and the Motown sound began to give way in popularity to funk and subsequently disco, Motown dance music found a new body of fans in England, whose devotion to the genre continues to this day. This collection includes tracks by The Spinners, Marv Johnson, The Temptations, The Four Tops, Marvin Gaye, The Miracles, Frank Wilson, Ivy Jo and many others.
