| | Martha Reeves and the Vandellas |
| | Martha Reeves had a phenomenally powerful voice, and the Holland-Dozier-Holland title track of this album was a well-deserved Top 10 hit: the instrumental backing is so funky that you hardly mind the long delay before the vocals start. | | | The recording quality isn't great, often burying the band and the Vandellas so all you can hear is Reeves, and even she sounds a bit screechy ("Jimmy Mack"). | | | The new songs are either R&B ballads (title track) or horn-backed blues ("Watch Your Back"), pleasant enough if that's your thing but far from noteworthy, and I suspect not the sort of nostalgia most of her fans are looking for. |

| | She reassembled the Del-Phis quartet as the Vels for a single in 1962, and later that year she led the group on their debut release under a new name, Martha And The Vandellas. | | | Reeves was schooled in both gospel and classical music, but it was vocal group RandB that caught her imagination. | | | From 1963 onwards, they became one of Motown's most successful recording outfits, and Reeves' strident vocals were showcased on classic hits such as "Heat Wave", "Dancing In The Street" and "Nowhere To Run". |

| | This is true of Martha Reeves & the Vandellas' LEGENDS disc, an 11-track tour of the group's danceable, R&B-inflected pop. | | | The ballad "In and Out of My Life" and the surging "I Love the Man" showcase Reeves's sultry leads and the tight-knit harmonies of Betty Kelly and Rosalind Ashford. | | | Motown's LEGENDS series doesn't quite hold up to some of the label's other compilation packages (notably the double-disc ANTHOLOGY series), but as short, career-spanning samplers, they are still highly enjoyable. |

| | He also continued to work behind the scenes at Motown, co-writing Martha And The Vandellas' hit "Dancing In The Street", and playing drums on several early recordings by Little Stevie Wonder. | | | In 1965, Gaye dropped the call-and-response vocal arrangements of his earlier hits and began to record in a more sophisticated style. | | | This record set the style for the next three years, as Gaye enjoyed hits with a series of joyous, dance-flavoured songs that cast him as a smooth, macho, Don Juan figure. |

| | Though she sings of the regret at having made the mistake of prematurely leaving a lover, Martha's voice, and the accompanying instrumentation, contain no trace of hesitance, doubt or fragility, but instead has a sheer single-minded toughness that carries throughout the track. | | | Martha Reeves was already in a girl group, The Del-Phis, when she became a secretary in the A&R department of Motown Records. | | | A creation of Motown producer/songwriter Clarence Paul, featuring Lois Reeves and Sandra Tilley as The Vandellas, 'Easily Persuaded', appeared on 'Natural Resources' (1970). |

| | The Ultimate Collection: Martha Reeves & The Vandellas |
| | Martha Reeves And The Vandellas: Martha Reeves, Rosalyn Ashford, Annette Sterling, Betty Kelley, Lois Reeves, Sandra Tilley (vocals). | | | Funky barrelhouse piano and drums, a great honking tenor-sax break and sassy answer vocals by Annette Sterling Beard, Gloria Williams, and Rosalyn Ashford support Reeves' impassioned lead, making one of the most soulful and deliriously danceable Motown singles of the early 1960s. | | | The key is Martha Reeves' commanding voice, a powerful instrument best heard on the group's outstanding second single, "Heatwave." Reeves is such a compelling vocalist that the writing and production team of Holland/Dozier/Holland made sure their songs and arrangements could match her strength, and in "Heatwave," Reeves nearly meets her match. |
