This was the first CD I ever owned, and it was very expensive too because I also had to buy something to play it on!!

Miss Weston was one of the best female singers at Motown in the early years but she never quite managed to make it big, possibly because she was very much under the wing of her husband William "Mickey" Stevenson. She did have a few minor US hits, notably "Helpless" and the much re-recorded "Take Me In Your Arms (Rock Me A Little While)", before hitting it big at the end of 1966 with her duet with Marvin Gaye, "It Takes Two". Unfortunately, as "It Takes Two" was storming up charts all over the world her husband left Motown, taking Kim with him.

On to the music ... this is a collection of recordings from 1963-1966 with the typical Motown mixture of uptempo and ballad material. It includes the original versions of "It Should Have Been Me" (later re-recorded by Gladys Knight and then again by Yvonne Fair), "A Love Like Yours" (later re-recorded by Martha Reeves and also given the full Spector treatment with Ike & Tina Turner), plus the previously mentioned "Take Me In Your Arms" (a major hit in the '70s for The Doobie Brothers). There is also a good example on here of Motown using the same backing track on two entirely different songs, in this instance "Do Like I Do" and "I'll Never See My Love Again".

It's difficult for me to choose a favourite, but I have always had a soft spot for the dramatic ballad "Don't Compare Me With Her"
