It’s been a long time since Ace’s last Motown Girls project was released but this new volume is well worth the wait. The collection opens with ‘In My Heart I Know It’s Right’, the first song Gladys Knight & the Pips recorded for Motown, and closes with the great Kim Weston in torch singer mode. In between you’ll find some of the company’s biggest stars – the Marvelettes, Brenda Holloway, Martha & the Vandellas alongside lesser-known collector’s favourites such as Liz Lands and LaBrenda Ben. Of the 24 tracks here on Baby I’ve Got It!, 14 are previously unissued in any format and 10 were first made available as Motown Unreleased downloads between 2014 and 2017. The selections were recorded between 1961 and 1969, and although predominantly uptempo, which should please most Motown fans represent several variations of the Motown sound.
