"This CD is a winner! If you are a Beatles fan and enjoy unique covers of their hits, then you'll love this. If you're a Motown fan who jams to Stevie and Diana, these versions will rock your ears. Awesome and a must for any collection!"

Vintage Motown Can Never be Bad

"Although I was very disappointed with a couple of the covers (the Temptations' "Hey Jude" and the Four Tops' "Eleanor Rigby"), I'd still recommend this CD for folks who miss the good ol' days of Motown ... artists we love, singing some of the greatest songs ever written."
So Awesome

"Wow. Just found out this album was in existence. I now own it and i am pretty excited about it. If you're a fan of soul, Motown, and The Beatles then this disc should be yours.
Of course, if you're not a fan of soul, Motown, and/or The Beatles then avoid this like the plague.
I admit that a few of the songs are a bit mediocre and just plain not good, but otherwise, gobble it up. Goes down real smooth."
