Calling all soul music lovers and vinyl collectors! Some of the most iconic albums in Motown’s rich history are getting a brand-new reissue this September, and it’s something you don’t want to miss. The Motown Sound Collection is bringing back the magic of three timeless records that shaped the sound of soul, funk, and R&B.
First up is Marvin Gaye’s In the Groove, featuring the legendary hit “I Heard It Through the Grapevine.” This album was a game-changer for Gaye and one of Motown’s biggest-selling releases. The reissue offers fans a chance to rediscover the soulful depth of Gaye’s voice in the purest format.
Next, we have Diana Ross and the Supremes with Love Child. Released at the height of their career, this album marked a shift in the group’s sound, embracing more socially conscious themes. With tracks like “Love Child” and “Some Things You Never Get Used To,” the reissue serves as a reminder of Ross and the Supremes’ powerful impact on the cultural landscape.
Lastly, Meet the Temptations is also making its comeback. This classic debut album introduced the world to The Temptations, one of the most successful and influential vocal groups in history. Tracks like “The Way You Do the Things You Do” still hit just as hard today, and the vinyl reissue gives fans a way to appreciate the harmonies and smooth grooves that made the Temptations a Motown staple.
These reissues are part of an ongoing series that celebrates the legacy of Detroit’s legendary label, bringing timeless music back to the forefront. Whether you’re a long-time Motown fan or just discovering these artists for the first time, this is the perfect opportunity to own a piece of music history.
