Soul Shrews Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Depends what you're into Andy but I reckon you got yourself a bargain. Don"t think theres any northern tracks as such but choc full of great soul music produced by Smokey Robinson and arranged by Wade Marcus and the great David Van De Pitte. Released 1970. Couple of nice covers of "Thats How Heartaches Are Made" and "Someday We'll Be Together" Cheers Paul Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Dave Thorley Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 No I can't confirm this, but I am lead to believe that this album is infact The Andantes, as the Marvelettes had broken up and so they were brought in to fill their shoes for the project. Can anyone else confirm, where's Tony Dave Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Can anyone else confirm, where's Tony Dave Hi Dave, I thought this LP was instigated as the group reformed. Hence the "Return of...." It didn't work for them so the group disbanded again after this LP I think. Andantes? I've not heard that tale before. Have to dig it out and give it a good listening to.

pikeys dog Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 I'm pretty sure it's Wanda on lead vocals... but she is the only real Marvellette on the album Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Bigsoulman Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 I'm pretty sure it's Wanda on lead vocals... but she is the only real Marvellette on the album That's correct, it was meant to be a solo album but Berry Gordy felt it was a better marketing ploy to call it a Marvelettes album Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Dave Moore Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 That's correct, it was meant to be a solo album but Berry Gordy felt it was a better marketing ploy to call it a Marvelettes album I never realised that. Great stuff. Just done some reserach and it appears that Wanda was actually the only Marvelette in attendance. It seems to make sense as the cover of the album clearly shows three girls but only one can be positively identified (Wanda). The other two were The Delicates who are credited as being the latter half of Undisputed Truth! Ain't Google wonderful! Hey Hey, learn something new everyday. Cheers chaps.
