Devil In The Bottle - TG Sheppard on Motown's Country & Western label Melodyland. This short lived label name was claimed by a church in California, and rather than fight in court, Berry Gordy changed the labels name to Hitsville.

Tough question, and ambiguous.
There were over 624 Artists and Group recording for Motown Records and affiliates from 1959 to 1979. Some were in 2 or more groups. Such as Diana Ross, Diana Ross & The Supremes, The Supremes, Diana Ross and The Supremes and The Temptations, Diana Ross and The Four Tops, Diana Ross and Marvin Gaye etc.
Also note that some groups had 3, 4, 5 or more performers.
