Another ‘cheapie’ on the shelves next week – The Tamla Sound of The Marvelettes.

As you probably know, The Marvelettes were one of the first of Motown’s successful bands, hitting the number one spot with the classic Please Mr. Postman in 1961. They produced plenty of other top notch R&B tunes in that decade too, but never their popularity faded, with Motown focusing more of its attention on The Supremes as the decade progressed.

Anyway, if you haven’t got a Marvelettes set in your collection, this one pulls together much of the band’s early material from albums and single-only releases over two discs and 33 tracks.

All of that for just £3.99. Track listing below.
