Maybe these were five titles offered to VMP that they ultimately didn't choose to go with, like with Blue Note?
My understanding is that VMP will be releasing a colored vinyl version of this set, but with ‘STEREO’ emblazoned on the labels.So maybe not a Motown Anthology? Seems odd timing.
Motown In Mono (LIMITED EDITION SET)
Checkout powered by The Sound Of Vinyl Celebrate Motown Records' 60th Anniversary with five classic Motown titles remastered in mono!

And a Xeroxed copy of liner notes will come a few weeks after the album. Not even in an envelope, they'll just fold it up, slap some tape on it and paste that shipping label on the outside.My understanding is that VMP will be releasing a colored vinyl version of this set, but with ‘STEREO’ emblazoned on the labels.

What could go wrong? (Except don't try to remove the tape later - you'll only tear the pages. They aren't meant for reading!)I think rolling it and wrapping it in packing tape would hold really well.
That's okay...half the pages are blank or repeat pages anyway.What could go wrong? (Except don't try to remove the tape later - you'll only tear the pages. They aren't meant for reading!)
Some of the pages just have the phrase "AROUND YOUR MARROW" 50 times.That's okay...half the pages are blank or repeat pages anyway.
Edit: Sorry I just realized it isn't very clear in this tweet without the Spotify embed, but these are anthology podcasts. I'm assuming each season is a different anthology.
I’m very happy that we got Blue Note first and then we will be getting Motown and Stax afterwards!So season 2 is Motown, and wasn't there some discussion about him researching Stax, so perhaps that is season 4. Thoughts on what Season 3 could be?
I feel weirdly offended that they put the podcast up for public consumption, but it's really not a big deal at all.

I recall that we were told it would be released eventually.

Yeah fair enough. I think I'm just still salty from the overall "experience" and all the BS added value hype they failed to deliver.
Hoping the Motown box is reasonably priced. $150 range will probably get me but I reserve the right to be a sucker.
I don't know, there are essentially infinitely more expensive audiophile reissues of Blue Note albums then Motown albums for a reason.I seriously think after selling out so quickly on the first one there will not be a price drop. Especially with a Motown box. Motown will have more of a following than Blue Note.
