60 years ago today this Beautiful Motown masterpiece was recorded.
My favourite song of all time the Temptations with My Girl

Yes I know My Girl is not uptempo but as it's exactly 60 years today I hope that's ok.
So for an uptempo soul song I'm going for Just a Little Misunderstanding by the Contours

7 Days is too Long…Chuck Wood. Personally I prefer the Dexys cover on Searching For The Young Soul Rebels but this is mighty fine and you did request 60s.

Not uptempo but great. Otis was the darling of we Mods in The 60's and his version is even better!

The Miracles - Whole lot of shakin in my heart. Written and produced by Frank Wilson long before the world had heard of him, and one of his first productions at Motown. And before Smokey had his name up front

Nice Christmasy subject this. Didn't the Contours produce! I lent my copy of "So hard being a loser," to Pete 'you know who you are," and never got it back.

I had the compilation album ‘This is Sue’ which came out late 60s early 70s and included the brilliant Roy Head song ‘Treat Her Right’
https://youtu.be/ixQFjy6crAU?si=LU1hximPOCLBFISO
It was great to see it featured in the Tarantino film ‘Once Upon a Time in Hollywood’

I knew that, but did you know that Wade Flemons was a founding member of Earth Wind & Fire?
