A MOTOWN SNAPSHOT FLASHBACK:RARE EARTH. This group shot was artfully enhanced creating a ‘psychedelia’ poster-style effect, ‘late-’60s style. The photo made the spread on the back-side of the ECOLOGY album. The band’s second Motown LP, it was released in 1970 on Barry Gordy’s newest subsidiary record label at the time, Rare Earth.
