Various Artists - Motortown Revue In Paris

3LP set in a slipcover box completely remastered!

Includes 12 formerly unreleased live tracks

Motown's latest release, Motortown Revue in Paris Super Deluxe Edition is now available. Motown has lovingly restored and remastered the audio and artwork of this much-vaunted live recording from the original Tamla Motown masters. The prolific Motortown Revue line-up features performances from Motown/Tamla legends The Supremes, The Miracles, Stevie Wonder, Martha And The Vandellas and Earl Van Dyke.

This release is the complete performance and includes 12 previously unreleased live tracks from all those who appeared on the night.

Originally released on the Tamla Motown label in the U.S. in 1965 and in the U.K. in February 1966, this live album was taken from the legendary Paris stint of the 1965 Motortown Revue European tour. Following successful shows in Great Britain, Paris was the final stop on the road and this live recording — sonically the finest of the Motortown Revue performances committed to tape — captures the sounds and atmosphere of this Parisian Motown party, with the finest of Berry Gordy Jr's travelling roadshow delivering in vintage form.
