Motown Deep Cuts, PAMS Jingles & More with Tomovox
United States
Приєднався 1 бер 2007
"A channel featuring my favorite Motown Deep Cuts with videos highlighting a few great Motown hidden gems. But also featured here are videos for some classic radio jingles from the classic 60s era of Top 40 Radio. AND... a few other favorites from Country, Jazz and even Easy Listening artists. I'm also a big fan of Saul Bass and his work in title sequence, so many of my videos try to capture just a bit of that flavor.

I had heard about a movie that Jayne Mansfield did called "The Fat Spy" and I was curious about what it was like. It was bad. Bad. What makes it so bad is that it's boring. The cast includes Jack E. Leonard, Brian Donlevy, Phyllis Diller and Jayne Mansfield - out of those names, it's really unfortunate that Jayne is billed fourth, because at least she livens the movie with her scenes, played wi...

Another deep dive into a Motown Classic; "A Bird In The Hand (Is Worth Two In the Bush)" in four flavors; mono/45 mix, stereo mix, and isolated left and right channels. The riff that opens this song, and forms the foundation of it, has to go down as one of Motown's best and most exciting riffs ever. For the life of me, I can't figure why this one didn't take off as well as, if not better than "...

"Motown In Mono and Stereo" "The Motown Sound A Collection Of Original 16 Big Hits Vol. 5" Full LP
I just heard this song for the first time today-and I gotta say it put me in tears. It is mastery of emotion and tenor. It just left me speechless. I will be going into a deep dive into the world of Kim Weston!
Yay!!!! I love your comment and the way this song made you feel- especially being that this is the first time you're hearing this. Kim Weston was one of Motown's must hidden treasures. The woman was pretty young, early 20s and yet she sounded so all-knowing, very much a Woman who knew everything. I hope you enjoy finding out all the many songs this wonderful Lady recorded- both at Motown and the music she did when she left the label. I got an unbelievable thrill a few years ago when I got a chance to talk to her by phone, thanks to a friend who was working for her. Kim is one of the most down-to-earth people you could even know. Thanks for a great comment- I enjoyed reading it!
Timeless Track. That’s got to be Stevie on that harmonica… What can I say - Smokey is unmatched when it comes to songwriting.
Well said. Wanda was very much like Mary Wells to Smokey - Wanda seemed to bring out some of his sharpest and wittiest writing. I honestly think this song is being enjoyed and appreciated by more people today than ever. That's really nice to see.
Stereo starts at 2:47. This has always been one of my favorite songs - it is right up their with "Psychedic Shack" and "Going to a Go Go" in theme - and the album was one of my favorite studio albums by the group along with "One Dozen Roses", both of which, coincidently, included "Tears of a Clown" (which became the name of this album after the success of the single)! Thanks for giving us a taste of both the mono and the stereo versions of the song!
@@ujimajame4601 Great comments and I like the comparisons you make. I agree very much about the album, it's always been a favorite of mine as well. They are releasing this album again on vinyl and in the mono version! I plan to buy one and hopefully I can put the entire album here along with the stereo LP as well. Thanks for the comments here!
My favorite Motown song! I read that H-D-H were thinking of having this song released as a single by the Supremes. They made the right decision giving it to the Isley Brothers. They own it.
@@robertanzalone5853 It's really wild how that sort of thing happened often. I think recently, it came out that The Supremes were supposed to record "It's The Same Old Song" originally, but then HDH re-recorded the music and gave it to the Four Tops. At any rate, definitely I agree with you - The Isleys own this one.
It sounds to me that the same musical track was used for both the Supremes and the Isley Bothers. Great song.
I caught my spelling error. It should be Brothers!
Yes indeed it is the same music track. I believe there is also a version by Brenda Holloway using the same track, but not released at the time. It's interesting how you can use the exact same music with a number of artists yet get an entirely different feeling each time.
@@Tomovox_PAMS_Radio_JIngles yes the version by Brenda Holloway has the same musical track!
thank you sooooo much for posting all of these jingle packages!
You're very welcome! I love these mini masterpieces and it's nice to hear from other jingle fans. Seeing your comment this morning, I now feel like getting back to doing more of these! It's really incredible how social media has helped to reveal that there are so many Jingle Fans out there. Thank you for making it a Happy Monday!
This has one of the funkiest arrangements going for it. The drums almost steal the show but really for me, it's the repeating 5-note riff being relentlessly played during the choruses by the churchy organ, piano, vibes, and guitars. The combination of all those instruments just jamming on that riff is incredible, especially at the end.
This is such a great track. It's one of the tracks that explains why Motown became a HUGE part of my life.
This one fairly beat me all over the head with its excellence. I believed it many years ago and still believe it today: this was one of the best things Motown ever turned out.
This album was truly one of the best every issued.
@@theboyfromxtown There's an alchemy to this album that you don't get on every album. I once read a review on the "Reach Out Four Tops" album and the reviewer used that word, "alchemy" and it struck me that it was the perfect word. And now it springs to mind for albums like this one, The Pink Album, The Vandellas' "Watchout!" album and "Four Tops Second Album".
Now, this is interesting !
@@canonet17 I'll be honest, I didn't know how to take it for awhile, like I couldn't wrap my head around it at all. But the older I get the more I really appreciate how magnificent this is.
I would start listening to country and western music again if we could have more like this song. I love the "shuffle" rhythm with the bass guitar in the old school Texas style bar room honkey music like "Hello Walls" by Faron Young.
In order to sign with Motown in the mid-sixties you were required to record a version of “Put Yourself In My Place “🤣 I love this song and the many versions. My favorites are the Elgins and Chris Clark, the Isleys is good too ❤
@@calvinguile1315 😂 That was good! I think you're right about that!!! Yeah I love Chris's jazzy version, The Supremes' 'breezy' version and the Isley's. Those guys always made everything sound great.
Still think that ALLthe isley brothers covers are better than the originals.This old heart of mine lp was full of fantastic cover versions.
@@stuartbrixton6260 This was at a time when Motown's sound was still so fresh, exciting and even raw enough that an album full of covers could blow the doors out. HDH and Ivy Jo Hunter with "Seek And You Shall Find" somehow came up with an album so tight, there were no lulls or dead zones. Even the stuff HDH did that stayed in the can sounds great.
Is that Benny Benjamin on drums?
@@MrDarkElement I'm going to direct you to a thread on Soulful Detroit Motown Forum. I asked help identifying a drummer I thought was someone outside of The Big Three. Read the replies, especially from Bradburger (Paul) and Quinn. It may help, it may get you more confused! But there are some very good insights to be found. soulfuldetroit.com/showthread.php?21442-Is-there-an-quot-Un-named-quot-Motown-Drummer&highlight=drummers
This one has always reminded me of "What Becomes of the Brokenhearted".
@@Tomovox_PAMS_Radio_JIngles yes, totally.. the Isleys always added their touch to everything they did
ILOVE this song ❤
@@calvinguile1315 Me too. I always felt this could have been a single for the Isleys. Ron Isley really brought out the best in this song, there's something extra that is lacking with the Four Tops' version.
Ro’s and Betty are so soulful on this I love it, especially the “ahhhh…oooo” after the “I Just Can’t Stand It “❤
Oops this comment was supposed to be for “What Am I Gonna Do Without Your Love “….
@@calvinguile1315 Yep I know the parts you mean on "What Am I Gonna Do..." That is such a beautiful song. Ivy Jo really gave a huge presence to Ros and Betty on that one, they have as much to do as Martha, which is nice to hear.
One of the best❤️ I was always used to the stereo version from A Collection of 16 Big Hits vol.8
This was always was a favorite from the album ❤, could you do one on the Smokey track “It’s Out Of The Question “ from Soul On The Rocks?
@@calvinguile1315 I've actually had that on my radar for some years now but just never got to it. I did a few things on the Isleys a few years ago and to be honest, it didn't seem that anyone paid attention to them. I still would like to do "Out of The Question" as well as that whole album so maybe I'll move it up to the front of my mind ...
Ooo! This song was completed on March 22, my birthday ❤
@@calvinguile1315 Nice!!¡!!
I always loved the Isleys version better, I love the background singing on this one❤
@@calvinguile1315 I heard the Isley's before I heard the Supremes'. I loved the Isley Brothers' cover for the same reason you do, but I gotta admit, the Supremes are doing some excellent harmonizing too! I can't pick a favorite lol
I agree with the mono version bei g better! Side question, could you tell who's the drummer by the style?
There is one person who sometimes drops by to comment, Bradburger, and I trust his ears as far as identifying who is drumming on what track. If I had to guess, I'm fairly certain this is not Benny. From past conversations and comments he's left on the 'Motown Drums" videos, I'm going to guess this is Uriel Jones from the fills. Hopefully, Bradburger will see this and chime in...
@@canonet17 I don't know if you have to create an account or not but you might be interested in this discussion/thread on Motown drummers from the site Soulful Detroit. soulfuldetroit.com/showthread.php?21442-Is-there-an-quot-Un-named-quot-Motown-Drummer&highlight=drummers
I love this song in mono! It is so much more exciting and action packed than the stereo version.
@@robertanzalone5853 Whoever mixed the mono version brought out far more than I expected when I got the mono album about 10 years after I got the stereo version. The guitar part especially.
If that mono version was released as a single, back in the day, it would have been a big hit. That guitar riff is a killer.
Jayne Mansfield’s song was fun, humorous and filled with double entendres.
Yes! I was really impressed with how well this was written and performed. The lyrics are actually very smart in a Smokey Robinson way. And it's all done in a way where you can hear it simultaneously as a G-rated, sincere love song AND a soft R-rated put-on. Jayne handled it with just the right combination of a sexy Mae West and a wide-eyed innocent. I'll always say she and this song is the only thing worth watching in this awful movie.
ᕕ[ ˵ ☯ ڡ ☯ ˵ ]┐❣️💜💖
The Stereo LP Mix is my favorite the strings are more clear to me on that mix.
Yes! Thank you! The strings really make it. Especially at end - I like that upwardly swirling arrangement. I hate that they muted the strings on the mono mixes.
The 45 mono mix with the Andantes gets my vote.
I have to get my ears attuned to the version with The Andantes because I grew up with the non-Andantes version, so this is a bit "new" to me.
YOU GOT IT! :-)
Yes. I had completely forgotten about the single being different from the mono album version. I didn't even know about the single version until I got The Complete Motown Singles set. To be honest, after years of hearing the album versions, the Andantes' voices just sound so strange here. But when I read your comment I thought it should be included as well.
THAT'S IT. 🙂

I remember the first time i heard this. I was in the basement of out two flat playing pool with my cousins. Sometime early 80s
It's amazing how music can really bring back memories, and so clearly. This is a good song to remember!
February 1968, as "THE HOLLYWOOD PALACE" featured Phil Silvers as guest host on February 3, 1968.
Should have been a bigger hit, but motown didn't promote the song, relying on name recognition
I think the song may have been too dated when it came out. It didn't even make the R&B chart and I'm sure it's because urban radio felt it was too old of a sound, being so close to Twist And Shout that had been a hit two years earlier. It reminds me of his fast music changed in the 70s and 80s - if someone put out a record that had a beat that was out of step with whatever the latest dance was, that record went nowhere. Fast. I really feel that may have been the problem with this record coming out in '66.
JUST WANNA DANCE I AM 72
If the music makes you want to dance, there's nothing wrong with that, my friend! Let's celebrate those 72 years by dancing whenever you want to and however you want to!
Love this song brings back so many memories ❤😊
I love this track in mono best of this album. That guitar from 1:08....I follow it right to the end.
The guitar riff really makes it
I love this track in mono. Used to play it repeatedly. That guitar at 1:08....I follow it right to the end.
A huge favourite of mine. I have 2 decks and would play the Supremes and the Isley Brothers in unison. Baby baby Ooo don't doubt me.
@@theboyfromxtown Wouldn't it have been great to get a mashup of the Sups and Isleys on the expanded More Hits set!
@@Tomovox_PAMS_Radio_JIngles Now that would have worked for me. Shake Me etc...didn't do it for me but that's just a personal opinion
Shades of Twist and Shout with this song. Motown had gold in their hands but didn’t put it to good use. Often Motown gave the Isley Brothers leftovers to record. Even This Old Heart was planned for the Supremes.but instead given to the Isley Brothers. Once the Isley Brothers recorded it, they owned it. Lastly, perhaps the Isley Brothers were developing into their own powerful musical talent that could not be limited or contained by the formula Motown machine.
Such fantastic points. This one though has always bugged me. It's not a bad record, it's a fun record and like you said, the first time I ever heard it I instantly thought this was a nod to their "Twist and Shout" days. But I've never understood why Motown went with it as a follow up to "This Old Heart Of Mine," which to me sounded like the group breaking new ground. So why regress with a throwback? If anything, "Take Some Time Out" might have been a good first song - but only because they had "This Old Heart," which sounded like an automatic winner, I can see why they held it back. But the ideal song to follow "This Old Heart" would have been "I Guess I'll Always Love You"- and I thought that WAS the follow up for along time. When I found out they went with this one, it just didn't make sense back then and it still doesn't make sense.
Has anyone else ever noticed the "WOO HOO WOO HOO" part that pops up throughout are exactly the same every single time? They never vary in inflection or duration. In fact, it sounds as if maybe those whoops were added in after the song was recorded - I'd bet that the brothers went into the studio, sang "WOO HOO" few times and the sound engineer or producer Robert Gordy simply spliced together the best two "WOOs" to fit within a four-beat bar and dubbed that edit in at the spot we're hearing.
God I love that perky little guitar riff that runs throughout this one. For some reason it reminds me of something you'd hear on the soundtrack of one of those sixties cartoons, like "Prince Planet," that were made in Japan.
Hello Hello 👋
Howdy Hi
I Loved this man All my life
I used to have a lot of WNEW jingles on my channel as well as an air check of the final few minutes of WNEW but someone bought the online rights to the jingles and was filing copyright claims on everything WNEW. I ended up with two copyright strikes and would have lost my channel if I hadn't been paying attention and deleted everything before UA-cam had a chance to hit me with a third strike. One of the strikes was for the complete song of the Milkman's Matinee by Les Brown which I'm sure they didn't own the copyrights on but I wasn't going to fight it. I used to go to bed to the Milkman's Matinee every night and loved when the news was ending and the first trumpet notes of the intro would start just after midnight. Thanks for posting these. I recognize a few of them from my collection but these are far better quality as most of mine were recorded off air.
I'm sorry to hear about the turmoil you went through! I would have loved hearing that aircheck and the jingles. I've come to realize, it's really like Russian Roulette as far as getting hit with copyright claims- I once had a Paul Petersen song that was up for several years, then out of the blue, it got hit with the copyright claim. Sometimes, you'll find something you got pegged for can get by on someone else's channel. I'm not sure how that works, but I'm glad you told me about your situation so that if I suddenly find this has been pulled down, I won't be surprised.
lol, you can hear exactly where Kaye’s music fell off the stand, the bass loses all the melody and only returns when the verse kicks back in.
This isn't Carol. This was recorded in Detroit.
You didn't even tell me! LOL I so love Cal's singing. Thank you for doing this.
Lol! Sometimes I'm posting things in the middle of the night and it doesn't occur to me to mention it as well on Facebook. I gotta say, doing these, spending time assembling everything, it gives me a lot of time to really appreciate these artists, and I've been getting a deeper appreciation for Cal's approach to these songs. She's something of a Cool Cat; hers is the mastery of understated elegance, but with just enough of a tinge of the Blues. The one performance that is rather uncharacteristic is "Let Love Live" where she takes on a surprisingly tougher all-out delivery. There will be more of these mono/stereo deals for The Velvelettes on the horizon. And I have an idea for gathering and tying together the group's singles in a special playlist that I think you'll appreciate. But that's a little way off in the future...
@@Tomovox_PAMS_Radio_JIngles I'll be there...waiting! :-)
