Tamla Album Discography (1961-1981)
by David Edwards, Mike Callahan and Patrice Eyries
Last update: July 31, 2012





Tamla was one of the earliest of the Motown labels, and certainly one of the most successful. It was the home of such superstars as Smokey Robinson & the Miracles, Marvin Gaye, and Stevie Wonder, as well as successful acts such as the Marvelettes, the Isley Brothers, Brenda Holloway, Tammi Terrell, Valerie Simpson, Eddie Kendricks, Tata Vega, Thelma Houston, Syreeta, and others.


The first Tamla label (far left) was white with black printing. Above the center hole is a world globe with a record overlapping the lower half and offset to the right. Around the globe is "TAMLA", the oceans on the globe, and the center of the record, are an indigo (dark bluish purple) color. At the bottom of the label on the early issues is the address "2648 W. Grand Boulevard, Detroit 8, Michigan". This label was used to from 220 to 231. The second label was transitional; the design was the same as the white label but the white was replaced with yellow and the purple was replaced with brown, with the black of the logo changed to red. This label was used on a few issues from about 229 to 233.
The third label (far left) was yellow with black printing, above the center hole is a brown record on the left side and a world globe with "TAMLA" in the center on the right side. This label was used until approximately December, 1968, or Tamla TS-291. The forth Tamla label (near left) was yellow with black printing, the top fourth of the label was brown with the Tamla logo above the center hole. "TAMLA" was in yellow in a square box with a globe above. This label was used through the 1980s.
A short-lived variation of the fourth label (far left) in the late 1960s had the record number and stereo designation in large, dark print. Early promotional labels (near left) had a similar design to label 1 and label 2, but with a large promo stamp on the label..
Promotional versions of the fourth label (far left) were white with black print. Tamla also used promotional labels with no graphics (near left).
