John & The Marvelous Marvelettes
|
AS A TEENAGER, I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD BE AFFILITATED WITH THE MUSIC INDUSTRY UNTIL A RELATIVE OF MINE SIGNED UP,WITH WHAT BECAME TO BE THE MOST POWERFUL EMPIRE FROM THE MUSIC WORLD OF THE 1960'S!!!
NOT VERY INTERESTED AT ALL, BUT WHEN "MOTOWN" FIRST BEGUN, I THOUGHT IT WAS GOING TO BE "BUSINESS AS USUAL" AFTER ABOUT A YEAR OR SO, MY WHOLE WORLD CHANGED AND OPENNED-UP, WHEN I HEARD FOR THE FIRST TIME, THIS SOULFUL MUSIC,THE CHIRPPING,CLAPPING AND FOOT-TAPPING "DOWN-TO-EARTH" SONG OF "PLEASE MR.POSTMAN"! I'VE NEVER GONE BACK TO MUSIC AS USUAL OR IT WAS JUST ANOTHER SONG!!!
THEY NEVER STOPPED COMING! ONE HIT AFTER THE OTHER;TWISTIN'POSTMAN~PLAYBOY~BEECHWOOD 4-5789~FOREVER TOO MANY FISH IN THE SEA~WHEN YOU'RE YOUNG & IN LOVE~DON'T MESS WITH BILL, JUST TO NAME A FEW,BUT I COULD NOT WAIT UNTIL THE NEXT 45 TO BE RELEASED,I WAS THERE THAT WEEK TO PURCHASE IT "MY KIND OF MUSIC" AND MY KIND OF GIRLS!!!
THE MARVELETTES WERE THAT GROUP THAT PUT "MOTOWN" ON THE CHARTS,BUT THEY NEVER LOOKED BACK! HIT AFTER HIT, BUT NEVER RECIEVED THE PROCLAIMED FAME & RECONITION AS THEIR PREDECESSORS WHOM THE MARVELETTES INITIALLY GENERATED THE MOTOWN'S INDUSTRY FINANCIALLY TO SUCCESS!...
I'VE TRAVEL FROM CITY TO CITY JUST TO SEE AND HEAR THIS FANTASTIC FEMALE GROUP WHOM I GREW-UP TO LOVE AND ADMIRE,EVEN UNTIL THIS DAY! THEY WILL ALWAYS BE MY FIRST AND LAST! I WILL ALWAYS CHERISH THE SOUNDS OF
"THE MARVELOUS MARVELETTES"
