 Rating: - Every Home Should Have OneThis album has, in our house, the code name "Every Home Should Have One". This is the quintessential Motown album - a steal at this price!!! Rating: - THE BEST CHARTBUSTERI HAVE OWNED THE ORIGINAL LP SINCE IT CAME OUT AND IT IS JUST SUPERB, IT MAKES THE REST OF THE CHARTBUSTERS, BECAUSE IT IS SO GREAT, LOOK JUST GOOD.
