Featured review
A Historial Show
Originally a TV special from the British series "Ready, Steady, Go!", this is a historical record of the days when Dusty Springfield sponsored and helped to introduce the Motown Sound in the United Kingdom, when all the artists performing in the show had had #1 hits in the United States. The show was re-released as a 54-minute music film on video. Almost all artists lyp-sinc, but when the performances are live the impact of the show grows. The best of the show includes a live performance of "Wishin' and Hopin'", by Dusty Springfield, and Martha and the Vandellas; The Supremes' "Stop! In the Name of Love", The Vandellas' "Nowhere to Run", and "Mickey's Monkey" by The Miracles and the complete cast.
