Comments and Reviews

Motownjohnny 16th Oct 2018		The full release date is 11 July '62; the same day as "I'll Try Something New", the new album from The Miracles and The Marvelettes latest 45, both sides of which were included on this album; "Beechwood 4-5789" / "Someday, Someway". Like the Miracles' album, the first edition of "Playboy" had the white label versions of scans 703874 and 703875, with the brown on the logo printed in black and the green replaced with blue. There was no company address printed on the labels.
cussincarryinon02 30th May 2014		With respect to dvdmike, I uploaded a higher res scan of back cover; also added label scans.
dvdmike 13th Feb 2014		A1 produced by Brian Holland and Robert Bateman A2, A3 produced by Mickey Stevenson A4, B5 produced by Berry Gordy A5 produced by Smokey Robinson B1 to B4 produced by Brian Holland Recorded at Hitsville U.S.A. Studios, Detroit, MI
