The results aren't exactly surprising, as iconic names (Smokey, the Temptations, Diana Ross, Marvin Gaye) and mega-hits ("ABC," "I Heard it Through the Grapevine," "Stop in the Name of Love") abound. Aficionados might quibble at a lack of diversity, but regardless of how many times and in how many different ways this stuff gets repackaged, the music never ceases to shine through.   Technical Info Release Date : 11/24/2008 Original Release Date : 2008 Catalog ID : 13464 Label : Universal Distribution Number of Discs : 3 Runtime : 205m : 33s Studio/Live : Studio Mono/Stereo : Stereo SPAR Code : n/a UPC : 00600753134641
