TBH, funkuncut, I DIDN'T see what you did there! 😀

Did we go from Vegetables to Berries in some way?

I feel on home territory here, being a youthful Tamla Motown fan... this was 1969 IIRC. I was 15 and had to have it. Played it to death. The Hot record in the UK. Outsold every other previous or subsequent Motown Chartbusters Compilation by 5-1!

The peculiar selection dominance by Diana Ross must be down to the fact she was dating the label owner, Berry Gordy! 🙄

Motown went downhill when Holland-Dozier-Holland quit the songwriting team.
