oo! more somewhat obscure Motown: "I Can't believe You Love Me". With the "My Girl" bassline sneaking in, courtesy (I assume) James Jamerson.

Dave promised "mono mixes" but I'm hearing stereo.

No flaws at all in this set so far, nor do I expect there to be.
Let's get right to it.

Smokey is just so sublime.
Saw him up in Tahoe a long time ago. Fun.

This was the second NTM of the set, which is really sayin' something!

Since Dave's sticking to early-ish Motown, I wonder if we'll get the Velvelettes' "Needle in a Haystack," which seemed to be a Dave fave in years past.

I'm guessing about half the set will be first-timers. And I'm starting to get a bit misty, too. This is really happening.
