Brenda and The Velvelettes in London last night....and Miracles question

[theboyfromxtown]

Interesting version. Cal's vocal and the Motown Sound still do it for me.

The Blue Sharks version was released in 1972.

The Velvelettes hit the UK charts when it was re-issued in 1971. I guess Blue Sharks saw its potential.

And there was also a version of the song by DIANA ROSS on her debut solo L.P. that was around at the same time.

Apparently, Diana heard Cal's 1966 version at the time and told Berry she loved the song.

I like Diana's take on the song but the Velvelettes' version is the one I prefer and listen to.

I have to say that I do like Diana's version.....but I have to support the ladies first!

Are there any clips of the V's singing Everybody Needs Love or of Brenda H singing Crying TIme?
