Throwback Thursday | The Dramatics

Long hiatus, but we're back with another edition of Throwback Thursday. So kick back, relax, and enjoy the stellar sounds of this classic Mo-Town group, the Dramatics.

My personal favourite, and an all time great, "What You See is What You Get"



And to unwind..."In the Rain"

Throwback Thursday | The Marvelettes

Odds are you've probably heard of the Supreme's and Martha and the Vandellas.  However, most of you probably haven't heard of the 4 ladies that made the success of the aforementioned groups possible.

While the last two installments of Throwback Thursday have revolved around a late 70's sound with more groovable bass lines, rythm, and synths, today I'm reaching for something about more soulful and gritty. 

The recording's aren't as crisp. 

The sound isn't really fit for the dance floor. 

But if you aren't digging on the soulful lyrics and catchy melodies of these soul pioneers, you're in the wrong line of work.

Meet the Marvelettes, the best soul group you've probably never heard of:

Throwback Thursday | On a Cloud

If you aren't grooving to this, your favourite condiment is probably mayonnaise.
