The Supremes and The Four Tops The Magnificent Seven (Vinyl - Tamla Motown, 1970) ***
Genre: Soul
Places I remember: Chaldon Books and Records (Caterham on the hill)
Fab, and all the other pimply hyperboles: River Deep Mountain High
Gear costume: Stoned Soul Picnic
Active compensatory factors: No Diana Ross on this one - she'll pinged off to her solo career by now. Instead we have the wonderful soulful team of Mary Wilson and Cindy Birdsong being joined by Jean Terrell.
The Four Tops are as you were and the two groups, seven singers, mesh well together on a range of covers.
Everything sounds effortless.
Where do they all belong? They'd follow this up with The Return of...which I'll feature presently - as soon as I buy it from Chaldon Books and Records!
Music is the wine that fills the cup of silence - ROBERT FRIPP. Information is not knowledge; knowledge is not wisdom; wisdom is not truth; truth is not beauty; beauty is not love; love is not music; MUSIC IS THE BEST - FRANK ZAPPA. I think we're a little happier when we have a little music in our lives - STEVE JOBS. Music in the soul can be heard by the universe - LAO TZU. Rock and Roll is fire, man. FIRE. - DAVID BRIGGS. Music grips you, gets into your soul - GEORGE MARTIN
