MANILA, Philippines - In celebration of Motown’s 50th anniversary, MCA Music releases six new compilations of Motown superstar artists. Joining The Definitive Collection series are discs from The Temptations, Gladys Knight & The Pips, Four Tops, Diana Ross & the Supremes, Smokey Robinson & The Miracles and DeBarge.    

As an irresistible force of social and cultural change, Berry Gordy’s legendary Motown Records made its mark not just on the music industry, but society at large, with a sound that has become one of the most significant musical accomplishments and stunning success stories of the 20th century. Diana Ross & the Supremes, Smokey Robinson & the Miracles, Stevie Wonder, the Temptations, the Four Tops, Marvin Gaye, Michael Jackson & the Jackson 5, Lionel Richie & the Commodores, the Marvelettes, Martha Reeves and the Vandellas, Gladys Knight & the Pips — their music communicated and brought together a racially divided country and segregated society, around the world, touching all people of all ages and race. 

No other record company in history has exerted such an enormous influence on both the style and substance of popular music and culture. With more than 180 No. 1 hit songs worldwide and counting, that influence is still being felt today, from pop to hip-hop, Motown celebrates the 50th anniversary of the company’s founding. 

Each album in the already successful series contains original stereo recordings, each digitally remastered, and a booklet featuring classic photos and extensive liner notes. Filled with No. 1 hits but also with an occasional lesser-known B-side, each Definitive Collection offers fans the greatest, most popular and best of each artist on one CD.

The Definitive Collection (at P290 each) from MCA Music is available at leading record stores nationwide.
