Depend On Me: The Early Albums

Compil. US 2009 on Hip-O Select label
Rock (Rhythm’n’Blues, Soul, Doo-Wop)

Booklet Disc 1 / Hi, We're The Miracles #1-11 issued as Tamla 220, June 1961 Cookin' With The Miracles #12-21 issued as Tamla 223, November 1961 Disc 2 / I'll Try Something New Disc 1, tracks 25-29 and Disc 2, tracks 1-5 issued as Tamla 230, July 1962. No album producer credited The Fabulous Miracles #6-15 issued as Tamla 238, May 1963 Some fans and discographers list the album title as "You've Really Got A Hold On Me", which is prominent on the cover and, adding to the confusion, is shown on some pressings of the LP as the main title on the spine and labels. Indeed, the original album label copy dated Feb. 8, 1963 shows the LP title as such, but Motown files contain a follow-up memo from two weeks later correcting the title. It is entirely possible that there were early runs of the LP jacket that did not include the corrections. Recorded live on stage #16-22 issued as Tamla 241, May 1963 #16-18 recorded live at the Regal Theater, Chicago, IL, date unknown #19-22 recorded live at the Apollo, New York, NY, December 17, 1962 Back Cover ℗ © Motown Records, a Division of UMG Recordings, Inc. 1755 Broadway, New York, NY 10019 - U.S.A. - Distributed by Universal Music Distribution. All rights reserved. Non-Release Notes The artwork, photography, album production and liner notes credits listed in the General Credit Section that are specified by track numbers refer to the original LP made up of those tracks, for example Disc 1; 1-11 refer to Hi, We're The Miracles LP. Credits not specified by track numbers refer to the production, artwork, design, etc. of this 2-CD set. The notes transcribed from the booklet are selective and omits info on recording dates, working titles, and previous appearances of the rarities on the set, along with other info that was not considered necessary to include. This set became available through Hip-O Select's website on June 19, 2009. US online retailers started selling the album on August 4, 2009 and UK online retailers on August 31, 2009.
