Motown was always the sound of dance music. During the novelty dance era in the early 1960s, the company celebrated the Twist, the Monkey, the Jerk, the Twine and even the Uncle Willie as these crazes came and went. By the mid-60s Motown had begun to turn their kind of dance music into an art form, with the rhythm section of the Funk Brothers providing the underpinning and the string and horn arrangements of Paul Riser (among others) supplying the sweetening on top. As the 60s drew to a close and the Motown sound began to give way in popularity to funk and subsequently disco, Motown dance music found a new body of fans in England, whose devotion to the genre continues to this day.

“One Track Mind!” – the second in our series of releases by the men of 1960s Motown – takes a tour through the vaults to discover some lost treasures of dance music. Seven of the selections here were previously available only as mp3 downloads. The remaining 17 tracks are previously unissued in any format. From the joyous if primitive sound of Popcorn Wylie to the sophisticated soul of the Fantastic Four, we hope there’s something here for even the most armchair-bound dance music fans of today.
