Product Description
Here's a first, a Motown CD on Ace.

It was in April 1960 that the Motown label issued its first official single, 'My Beloved' by the Satintones. Fitting, then, that exactly 50 years later, this unsung group of seminal Detroit doo woppers should get their long overdue moment in the spotlight.

Titled after an album that was never released, "The Satintones Sing!" is produced with the full cooperation and encouragement of Motown's New York office, who gave the compiler, noted Motown historian Keith Hughes, access to their precious tape vault. In addition to the 13 tracks released by the group during their 1959 to 1961 existence, plus both sides of an earlier solo single by lead vocalist Chico Leverett, the set includes an incredible 11 previously unissued titles.

This prestigious release is the second in Ace's recently launched Limited Edition series, the first of which by the Royaltones sold out almost instantly. This release is a strictly limited edition.

The booklet contains a 5000 word essay that incorporates interviews with the four surviving Satintones, James Ellis, Chico Leverett, Bob Bateman and Sonny Sanders, the last two of whom went on to successful careers as songwriter/producers.

A dream come true for aficionados of Motown, soul and doo wop. Don't blink, you might miss it...
