Master chart for “Dancin’ in the Street” coming on nicely… a relatively simple song, but the way the backing track and harmonies come together exemplifies the skill of the ‘Motown writing and arranging team… utterly brilliant! Apparently, they sometimes used two drummers and a tambourine to get a compelling one-take rhythm track.
Next ones up to tackle… “Superstition” and “I Wish” by Stevie Wonder
