60s girl groups were making BOPS!! Martha Reeves & The Vandellas, The Crystals, The Shirelles, The Ronettes, The Chiffons, The Supremes, The Marvelettes... they made some of the best songs ever, and they don't get nearly enough credit!! I wish more people were still listening to them.

Tonight’s random record shelf pull…
The Marvelettes “The Marvelettes Greatest Hits” 1966
A welcome selection at the end of a trying day! Nothing too deep here, just great 60’s pop R&B. The kind that The Beatles loved. They’re a bit overlooked in the Motown cannon but they had some really enjoyable and solid tunes.
Good stuff!
