Sorry, but I have heard better from kaeoke singers who had one too many. LOL

That's not funny and it's not clever. As most Motown hits consist of vocals added to a band track, couldn't it be argued that they're all a kind of karaoke?

I enjoyed that. I might look out for the CD.

Love this and her version of Stop! On this cd/download
however no way is that Martha singing on the tracks billed as Martha

[mysterysinger]

I don't think it sounds like Martha either - that Martha vibrato isn't there. There are odd moments when I'm less than sure [[not many). On balance, I think it may be someone else.

Could they do that and get away with billing it as "Martha Reeves"?

When I saw Martha and Vandellas awhile ago she had no vibrato. Seems to come and go

If it is Martha on the CD, she sounds good.

I know she can control it when she wants to. I've seen/heard her do it too.

Thank you Longtimefan. I was hoping to learn of recording dates, etc.

[mysterysinger]

1999 or slightly earlier I would think.
