In regards to mono/stereo promo versions, if there is a difference beyond the mono single version being a fold down, I would think that they would include both versions, as they did include other promotional-only versions on the earlier box sets.

I also suspect they would include both original 45 versions of Indiana Wants Me.]]> Sat, 08 Dec 2007 14:03:20 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2374&PID=13400&title=jackson-5-mono-singles-compilation#13400 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2374&PID=13399&title=jackson-5-mono-singles-compilation#13399 Author: Brian W.

Will we get the stereo single versions or will these sets be strictly mono?

Judging from the previous sets, I would think they would include both versions. There are many instances of "first pressing" and "second pressing" notations on the Complete Motown sets.

Don't know about the stereo/mono question, but I would think they would go with the commercial 45 versions, whatever they may be.]]> Sat, 08 Dec 2007 13:20:46 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2374&PID=13399&title=jackson-5-mono-singles-compilation#13399 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2374&PID=13398&title=jackson-5-mono-singles-compilation#13398 Author: Hykker

Thanks for the 1969 "Complete Motown Singles" alert, Brian! I'm headin' over to the Hip-O Select website right now!]]> Fri, 07 Dec 2007 23:43:33 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2374&PID=13397&title=jackson-5-mono-singles-compilation#13397 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2374&PID=13396&title=jackson-5-mono-singles-compilation#13396 Author: Brian W.

Believe it or not, Hip-O has already announced Volume 9 (1969) of "The Complete Motown Singles," which is listed with a release date of 12/6, but shows "pre-order" on Hip-O's website. Hopefully this will ship before the end of the year.

And the good news is it DOES contain the the Rare Earth label singles -- in fact, all Motown subsidiary labels -- so we should finally have the single version of "Indiana Wants Me" on CD when Volume 10 comes out within the next six months.

By golly, you're right, Jim. I checked the release dates on the Hip-O website, and, while there were three releases a year for the first two years, they got a REALLY late start this year (May 25th). They had never started later than February before. So if we don't get Vol. 8 by September, I'll venture we won't see Vol. 9 until 2008. In fact, the shortest time between sets has been four months, so I think we won't get Vol. 9 this year no matter what. Damn.

Oh, well, better slow and right than fast and wrong.

Brian, I am positive I already had Volume 6 (1966) by December 2006, so only one volume has come out so far in 2007 (1967). With your "three-a-year" thoery, that would mean Volumes 8 & 9 (1968 & 1969) will appear by the end of 2007, and Volumes 10, 11 & 12 (1970, 71 & 72) by the end of '08.]]> Sun, 26 Aug 2007 00:23:42 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2374&PID=11277&title=jackson-5-mono-singles-compilation#11277 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2374&PID=11273&title=jackson-5-mono-singles-compilation#11273 Author: Brian W.

I think I just had it in my head that, since they were doing three a year, they would end with the third issue of 2008. But I guess it'll go into 2009.

Brian, to re-trace my steps as to how I thought it was gonna eventually be 12 volumes, I Googled "Complete Motown Singles" and "series", and an article allegedly "interviewing" Harry Weinger popped up, although I noticed no quoted passages by him within it. This article referenced the "twelve projected compendiums", and that's what I'm going by - certainly not etched in stone, but I've since seen/read nothing to the contrary. A Wikipedia entry also mentions twelve volumes for the series.

Are they going through '72? For some reason, I thought it was '71.

Anyway, 1968 should be out before Christmas, and '69 through '71 will be out next year. Finally, I'll have "Mama's Pearl" and hopefully "Indiana Wants Me" in their true mono single versions.]]> Sat, 25 Aug 2007 16:00:14 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2374&PID=11271&title=jackson-5-mono-singles-compilation#11271
