Damn, that Motown series of "Anthology" albums was, and remains, awesome.

well, bubba...that is truly a most excellent tip.

I picked up this anthology a while back b/c i needed some supremes in my life. it has worked. simply fantastic collection.

but...

until you mentioned the motown anthology series, i did not know they were a thing. so i will be on the look out now.

thank you.

Love the duality of the redneck thing. Bumped into a number of redneck hippies in Asheville this past weekend. Big, burly dudes with shaggy manes, Billy Gibson-styled beards and horseshoe barbell nose rings.

It is only now, decades later, that i'm beginning to feel like i missed out on something important because my high school didn't have a parking lot.

You're welcome. I thought I was ratifying/confirming your most excellent taste but if you're on the lookout for Motown in all its glory, look for this one, which i know is availabe used in various places on the 'net: The Greatest 64 Motown Original Hits, which is, of all things, a K-Tel album, if that means anything to you.

If comps count this is a serious contender for greatest album ever. When I was hitting my stride as a music fan (say late teens/early 20's) the 2 "holy grails" of record searches were this one and Lenny Kaye's Nuggets. I still remember the day I found the Motown collection. A friend tipped me off that a used record store had 2 new(!) copies, of which he had just bought one, and i had to ask for it because the proprietor was keeping them (now it) under the counter (not displayed). I cut class, ran over there and got what for all i knew at the time was the last copy extant. I paid the then exorbitant sum of 25 bucks and couldn't believe i got it so "cheap." Highly, highly recommended, although you can forget listening to anything else for at least a week or 2.

PS The Anthology albums are excellent, too, but for "one stop shopping" nothing beats 64 Hits.

our conspiracy theories involved with those words were Q level batshit.
