• Track Listing

Somehow, not one Motown hit in the label’s first five years reached the UK charts. So UK artists took it upon themselves to record their own versions of those sublime songs; here are 24 of the best: "Mickey’s Monkey" Hollies, "Sweet Thing" Georgie Fame, "You Really Got a Hold on Me" Small Faces, "Every Little Bit Hurts" Spencer Davis Group, "Shotgun" Cilla Black, plus Dusty Springfield, Helen Shapiro, Elkie Brooks and more! Ace.
