Love Is Here And Now You're Gone/ There's No Stopping Us Now

It's clear that Diana Ross' spoken interlude in this underrated Supremes single was one of Michael Jackson's greatest vocal inspirations. His little hiccup surely started from late-night air-guitar sessions when Michael would sing along with Diana on this one. :-) The B side is another fine H-D-H tune. This single is also remarkable for the manic mastery of James Jamerson's bass playing. Right from the get-go, his bass starts running away behind the scenes and just doesn't stop for breath! (Note: Jamerson was inducted into the Rock'n'Roll Hall of Fame in 2000.) Note: This beautiful copy comes in a vintage Motown Records factory sleeve. It has Mint labels and very nearly pristine sound. The A side has a small defect in the vinyl, which causes very light surface noise for 2-3 spins. (This scan is a representative image from our archives.)
