Motown Records is synonymous with the Soul sound of the 1960s, but the label was formed in 1958 and this collection presents the Vocal Rhythm & Blues/Doo-Wop style of the late 1950s and early '60s that would latest evolve into the Motown sound, resulting in a wealth of hit records and classic songs. This unique 27 track collection presents highly-collectable early Motown Records recordings, featuring everything recorded for the company by a trio of their legendary vocal groups, The Contours, The Satintones and The Valadiers, all recorded between 1959 and 1962.
