*by R***N on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 29, 2015*

I don’t ordinarily write reviews but I bought this CD hoping to get the original version of Whole Lotta Woman that was on the 45 record and the version on this CD is NOT it. This version on the CD is a horrible version with an awful disco type mix and the singing is even flat in sections and not the vocal track of the original. I don’t think this version could in any way be a relative of the original 45 version. The 45 version is a very flat intimate recording which sounds like you are in a living room listening to the group – it’s fantastic. Go to youtube and search for "Whole Lotta Woman , The Contours", then look for one that pictures the 45 record and listen.  You will hear a piano and sax starting it off. Later in the tune you’ll even hear the bongo drums – The 45 version is flat out a true gritty, R&B classic! The CD version is a 100% flop.I actually was dumb enough to buy 3 different CD’s hoping one would have the 45 version but no- all have this horrible cut.  I ended up recording the 45 version off one of the  youtubes onto my computer and then putting it on a CD.I wanted to warn anyone that is looking for  the original Whole Lotta Woman to NOT buy this CD. I’m posting this on each of the CD’s I bought.

    Nice song selection but MONO only.
  

*by R***O on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 19, 2007*

This is another example of neglect in regard to remastering. The people at Universal Music/Spectrum in the UK chose to include in this collection the MONO singles only. There are no stereo songs on this CD. If Motown or whomever is putting this stuff out, they should print the mono/stereo information on the cover so that the buyer can know what he/she is buying.
