    Martha gets mentioned on Jeopardy

    Always nice when one of our faves gets a plug on this most-popular of shows. The question had something to do with Marilyn Monroe also having sang a song sometime or other about a "heat wave." But of course, we all know there was only ever ONE Heatwave song!

    Oh that is great! Martha Reeves has certainly made her mark on history and pop culture.

    The Marilyn Monroe version of "Heatwave" is nothing compared to the Ethel Waters or Mildred Bailey version. Both great precursors to Martha's.

    Lena Horne did a great version too!
