Motown: The Complete No. 1's

Disappointed in song selection.

I have to say that is collection encompasses all the great Motown music. The packaging is very inventive. A miniature version of the Motown Studio in Detroit. I know that I probably have other sets with these songs but then there are songs that I do not already own, so it fills those gaps in my collection. The sound quality is good, I have no complaints. If you are a fan of the 60s and Motown in particular, you will LOVE this collection.

What's not to like? Motown assembled the best musicians, vocalists and performers that ever graced a stage. No one will ever surpass its significance in the history of music!

The package is a bonus which is used as a display in entertainment roomReceived just in time for my brother’s anniversary of 40 years with his wifeIt was a hit with all the memories and good feelings of some of the best music of our time.

Delivered by Amazon on a rainy day, box sitting wet w/o any plastic bag protection. Saved a photo. Not a welcoming experience. Found skipping on one of the tracks.

I am in LOVE with my purchase!!! Songs that take me back in time!! Some songs, I haven't heard for a long time. Thank you!!!

Big Motown fan, finally have a comprehensive collection of their #1 hits.Berry Gordy hits it on the head once again.Well worth the cost.

This is one of the best box sets I've purchased in a while. Hit after hit after hit. Includes 208 tracks and almost 13 hours of music, covering 6 decades!

Fantastic price for such a great collection

This is a box set of 11 CDs (five 2-CD folders and a separate "bonus" CD in a cardboard sleeve). These are all the Number 1 songs from the Motown years, collected in one place. This is an expensive box set for 11 CDs, and the value will be up to the individual person to assess. Practically everything on these CDs is available in other collections, so there's nothing unique here. The box that the set comes in is odd-shaped and won't fit well with other CDs in shelves; the set of CD folders are in a box with a fancy slipcover with a roof on top, supposedly looking like a duplex in Motown, and that box ships in a plastic rectangular slip cover to protect everything. The box (with or without the plastic slipcase) doesn't fit well on my CD shelves, which is a bit annoying.The tracks do not sound remastered in any way, compared to LPs and 45s in my collection, although the engineering is general solid.The music covers a wide range of years, from the early 1960s through the early 1990s. There's a heavily illustrated booklet that comes in the box, with some nice photos and track listings, although not much about the tracks or artists themselves in many cases. The CDs are in chronological order, so you can pick and choose the years you want to listen to.I've been through the entire set, and it's a good collection of the hits of each year. Having said that, as mentioned I have two gripes: the weird shaped box is a pain to store, and this is a relatively expensive box set for 11 CDs in a market swamped with "Best Of" collections. Still, I'm glad to have it in my library.

Diese Complete No. 1`s Box ist einfach der Oberhammer. Genau das Richtige für Sammler. Eine super schöne Aufmachung (Verpackung) die CDs sicher verpackt ... und klangtechnisch einfach nur geniessen.Diese Ansammlung von spitzenmässigen Künstlern aus dieser geilen Zeit gibts nicht auf jeder Compilation. Nur das Allerfeinste .... also ein wahres Schmuckstück ... Sofort zugreifen solange dieses Goldstück noch erhältlich ist ...

Per gli appassionati del genere è una raccolta perfetta, dal packaging originale.Il pacco viene consegnato con diverse protezioni per far si che non venga rovinato.Ottimo prodotto.

The set is good, great packaging, great sound. Maybe a bit heavy on some artists and a bit pricy but good overall coverage of Motown sound. I love the picture of the real 45 under the disc. Like a surprise under each disk and appreciate the photo album
