This DVD of 'The !!!! Beat' T.V. program contains shows 14 through 17, recorded in 1966. The focus here shifts to the blues. Here is footage of the great Louis Jordan -- a little past his 1940s prime, but still fabulous and still leading one of the hottest artists. Episodes 14-17 of the vintage TV show THE BEAT are highlighted by footage of jazz legend Louis Jordan, who helped define the emerging R&B sound in the 1940s with the buoyant rhythms he played on his saxophone. Shown here in 1966, he obviously still had the touch, and still fronted one of the hottest bands around. An additional treat are guitarists Freddie King, an inspiration to both rock musicians and bluesmen alike, and Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown. Examples of Clarence 'Frogman' Henry's New Orleans-style R&B round out this stellar lineup of classic musicians from the exciting period of the 1960s.

| | Complete Motown Singles V.11a CDs (2008) Box Set
Beat - Vol. 4: Shows 14-17 video
$85.49 Berry Gordy moved Motown from Detroit to Los Angeles at the end of 1968 but, like an earthquake, not all of the aftershocks were felt after the initial shift. It took a while for all the dust to settle, for Motown to start feeling like it belonged to Hollywood instead of the Motor City, for the label to get to the point where the showbiz began to eclipse the soul, and that year was 1971. That year, Gordy slowly started to recede from the day-to-day operations of the label, choosing to pursue interests in film and television, but Motown hardly shut down in his absence: they churned out more 45s than ever, releasing so many singles in the course of a single year that when it came time for Hip-O Select to cover 1971 in their comprehensive The Complete Motown Singles series, they had to split the year into two multi-disc box sets. This, Vol. 11A, covers the first six months of 1971, six months that had enough activity for a year -- a full six discs of material, to be precise. The entirety of Motown's 1970 singles output fit onto a six-disc set for Vol. 10, so it stands to reason that 1971 either was an embarrassment of riches or found the label stretching itself a little thin.
The Complete Motown Singles, Vol. 11A: 1971 proves the latter to be true, containing moments of blinding genius surrounded by cinematic schmaltz and funky filler. Genius is none too strong a word for the best music Motown produced in the first half of 1971, especially the album that defined the year for the label and much of pop music in general, Marvin Gaye's What's Going On. This was the first Motown LP to be an artist-driven concept album, a seismic shift within the label that is just ...
