I'd like to correct my earlier post. In the notes for DELIVER: THE SINGLES 1961-1971, it is mentioned that I'LL KEEP HOLDING ON was unusual among Marvelettes songs because it was recorded in New York instead of Detroit. There is a quote from Gladys Horton:
"Mickey Stevenson came to New York and they rented a studio. They wanted to get those songs recorded so bad they couldn't wait for us to get back to Detroit."
I mistakenly thought the other song was HEARTBREAK because Gladys mentioned "songs" plural in her quote, but the notes neglect to mention what the other songs might be.
