Description:

This three-CD collection compiles many of Motown`s biggest hits from the `60s, `70s, and `80s.
A three-disc set released by Universal International, Motown Greatest Hits is a wonderful collection that combines the obvious Motown hits with material a little less at the center of the label`s patented 1960`s sound. Rick James` "Superfreak" and Billy Preston`s "With You I`m Born Again" are just two of the titles mixed in here that give this anthology a more comprehensive feel than the usual Motown compilations. Relatively uncommon tracks like "I Hear a Symphony" by the Isley Brothers, and the movie theme song "Ben" by Michael Jackson are also included, adding to the historical sweep of this boxed set. ~ Steve Leggett
