It has been on the shelves before, but Motown’s Motortown Revue In Paris has never been out in this form.

This is a Motown show from Aprl 1965, one that took place at the Olympia in Paris, the final date of Motown’s first tour outside the US.

The show was recorded, but only part of it ever got a full release as the Motortown Revue In Paris in the same year. Now we have the full show heading out way in its original running order, featuring 12 previously unissued tracks.

The entire set now covers a double CD and a three-album vinyl set, the latter looking wonderful in terms of the packaging.

All the track listings are below, with the shelf date set for 25th March 2016. You can pre-order it now, with the CD priced at £12.99 and the vinyl set retailing for £31.99.
