Mary Wells Artist Snapshot:

Motown's biggest female solo star, and a highly original vocalist with a unique blend of sophistication and innocence, Mary Wells enjoyed a long string of hits in the first half of the 1960s (Motown's glory days), mostly penned by genius writer/producer Smokey Robinson. In '64, Wells recorded a successful album of duets with Marvin Gaye. After leaving Motown in the mid-'60s, she had a few smaller hits here and there, but by the '70s her chart reign was over. An indefatigable trooper, she continued recording until she was felled by cancer in 1992.

This sharply focused compilation presents the finest mid-1960s Motown recordings by the label's leading solo lady, Mary Wells. The no-frills track listing features Wells's major hits of the era, many of which were penned by Smokey Robinson, including the shimmering "You Beat Me to the Punch" and "My Guy," her breezy take on "My Girl." Although THE ULTIMATE COLLECTION is a more comprehensive anthology, 20TH CENTURY MASTERS is ideal for those seeking a concise, well-selected sampler of the soulful singer's star-making early career.
