Thanks for the heads up!

I hope [[fingers crossed) that Roberta views their performance as a sincere tribute to Martha.

Bertha, Norma & Milly are going to town with their percussion on Nowhere To Run.
Mabel John & Maxine Brown obviously shared the stage as well .

John,

Thanks so much for sharing those YT clips. The ladies look and sound fantastic and the band is spot-on. The velvety Velvelettes never fail to excite an audience. Cal blows me away...and I think Martha would be honored by their rendition of NTR! ;)

Cal is in great voice......still the powerhouse that she always been.

Damn this is a pleasure to see and hear. They have the talent to put out an album for sure; but prob not too much of a market. Were they represented in the Motown play? Yes, Cal's voice is really strong and commanding.

Don't they look and sound just great!

Those two songs are an unusual selection.

No performance of 'Needle in a Haystack' or 'He Was Really Sayin' Something?

Hope there are more clips to come....and from many future performances....;)

I'm sure both Martha and Roberta will think this is a great tribute. And after all, Martha herself has included Sugar Pie Honey Bunch and What's Goin' On in her set for years! This is a stunning post BFXT - muchas gracias indeed. Muy bueno.
