Motown will release the first ever anthology for soul great Mary Wilson in March.
‘Mary Wilson’s The Motown Anthology’ will feature 38 songs Mary’s early days in The Primettes, her successful innings in The Supremes and her solo years.
Mary worked with songwriters Berry Gordy, Smokey Robinson, Holland-Dozier-Holland, Deke Richards, Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil, Thom Bell and Linda Creed. Many of the songs are rare or unreleased as well as the premiere on CD of the solo songs produced by Gus Dudgeon (Elton John and Cat Stevens producer).
The set was overseen by Turkessa Babich, Mary Wilson’s daughter, and Jay D. Schwartz, her longtime publicist, with its 44-page booklet stuffed with rare and previously unpublished color photos. The booklet also features detailed track annotations, and exclusive tributes to Mary from such luminaries as Dionne Warwick, Darlene Love, Otis Williams, Duke Fakir, Martha Reeves, Claudette Robinson, Brian and Edward Holland, Paul McCartney, Rita Coolidge, Merry Clayton, Brenda Russell, Blinky Williams, and RuPaul. Secretary Hillary Rodham Clinton has penned a special appreciation, as well, for this ultimate celebration of Supreme legend Mary Wilson.
‘Mary Wilson’s The Motown Anthology’ will be released on 22 March 2022.
