J.A.W. Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 For those interested: I just got an e-mail from Universal that Vol.2 of the Motown Singles box will be released on May 13. Can't wait! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmitry Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 Hans, have you seen STANDING IN THE SHADOWS OF MOTOWN, a documentary about the Funk Brothers? What an amazing film! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheldonm Posted May 4, 2005 Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 Hans, have you seen STANDING IN THE SHADOWS OF MOTOWN, a documentary about the Funk Brothers? What an amazing film! I agree! I saw it several weeks ago; very good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted May 4, 2005 Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 I'm most excited about Volume One, which I think is stupendous in its variety and the excitement in the material and sound. Sound is really good on this set! Though Volume Two. . . well that would be second on my list! So I might have it one day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LAL Posted May 5, 2005 Report Share Posted May 5, 2005 Anyone knows where else to get these sets apart from Hip-OSelect (they don't ship to UK, EU and many other places )? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.A.W. Posted May 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2005 Anyone knows where else to get these sets apart from Hip-OSelect (they don't ship to UK, EU and many other places )? Thanks! These sets are solely available from Hip-O, but I'm told Universal (they own Hip-O) might distribute the sets in Europe, which seems to be the reason why Hip-O is no longer allowed to ship them to Europe. I asked an American friend to order the set for me. Maybe an idea? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dmitry Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 Just ordered my own Vol. 1. I just "KNOW" this will be spinning at the office day in/day out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Gray Posted May 14, 2005 Report Share Posted May 14, 2005 (edited) Just ordered Volume 2. European buyers can buy it here It isn't true that it is only available through HipO Also, I hear from HipO that they should be shortly able to handle shipping to all European countries.

Well, I got an e-mail from Hip-O a while ago that their stuff was only available through them, and that they're not shipping to the EU. I noticed that Soul Music's price for the Motown set is slightly higher than Hip-O's; could it be that they're buying it from Hip-O and reselling it?

Maybe, don't know. Like, I said, I have had an email in the last week from HipO saying they they expect the situation to change real soon with respect to delivery to England and the rest of the EU.

Stan C Posted May 15, 2005 Report Share Posted May 15, 2005 I've recently got Vol. 1 of the Complete Motown Singles and will be getting Vol. 2 also. Thanks to Hans about the David Ruffin Hip-0 Select CD going OOP on the Steve Hoffman site as I ordered that one before it became no longer available.
