Needle In A Haystack and He's Really Saying Something are classics
All the female groups from the 60's were golden!
Yes I marvel at photos of ladies from the era myself the clothing and makeup is beautiful to me.
THANK YOU for this little Known Black history fact💖💫
They got had by Motown. They could've been a million dollars selling group. I love every song they made, thank you 😊
so many of these labels didn't pay the artists fairly chess ,capitol etc volt stax and so on that's why it's called a business I hate to say this but white artists advances and pay was probably 10 times better and they didn't have racial sounding music charts like the black singles chart .
at first their financial records weren't made public so some of the artists never knew how many records they really sold it had to be guessed or estimated until someone allegedly tracked the sales they will never see all of the proceeds fake knockoff revue acts were also lying saying they were original members of certain groups agreeing to perform for cheaper prices to get paid the copycats made money from groups they were never part of .
the velvelettes never got the recognition they deserved at motown
Sorry, I missed the live; WBPTV always has the BEST videos!!!!!👍❤
Nice work as always
WBPTV always has great videos.
Saw them live once in L.A. They were classy and beautiful ladies and rocked the crowd. I have a compilation album of their recordings and it was clear to me that they were asked to do a lot of inferior and bland material, but their signature hits still shine and sound like classic Motown. Don't miss "Needle in a Haystack". It will remind you of "Where Did Our Love Go" by The Supremes in its arrangement. Great record as was "He Was Really Sayin' Something".
I never heard of them but what great songs they had . Thanks for the history . I always learn something with u
Well, you definitely taught me a lot, another great video. May the 2 ladies be Resting In Peace!
Nice content on the velvelettes👏🏽🙌🏽I wonder if the shady secretary was Martha Reeves 🤔😄because in The Temptations movie she was secretary around that time.
I thought about that too but couldn’t find evidence to back that up . If so then it would make sense to why 2 of the group’s members joined The Vandellas
It wasn't Martha. Bertha remembers her name
@@theboyfromxtown 👌🏽👍🏽
Sistas still jamming an looking fine
Never got to make an lp damn that's terrible. No released lp. Great group
Great job, thank you.
They have some bops! The sound of some of their songs remind me of The Four Tops.
the ronettes, crystals , shang ri las and others were gorgeous women those 60's eyelashes are everything 😍.
Motown gave many promising acts the shaft. The Velvettes had all the right ingredients into being a rivaling girl group. However, Berry Gordy was just too far invested into making Diana Ross an all-out top priority, even while and during her tenure as a Supreme.
They are awesome
Great video on The Velvelettes! I never heard this girl group, but when I looked up their music they got some great songs like Needle in a Haystack, He was really Sayin' Somethin, Lonely, Lonely Girl Am I, A Bird in the Hand and These things will keep me loving you. They were a great group along with The Marvelettes, Martha Reeves and The Vandellas, and The Supremes. I would like to see you do Undisputed Truth and rock band Rare Earth. Keep up the good work! Once again a great video bro!
One of my family members went to school and lived down the street from one of the members of The Velvelettes.
I'v loved the Velvettes from early sixties. They had a B side song that was very hot named "Should I tell them" and It popped. Please give info on Brenda Holloway ?
Awesome vid! Really like their music, esp ‘Really Saying Something! They have lots of film footage too unlike the Marvelettes. Could you do more videos on the Marvelettes? Cheers!

🎉needle in a haystack is one of my fave all time raves ❤
They were another group from the MOTOWN stable of Talented People. ❤❤
Remember their music very well
“That’s the Reason Why “ features Stevie Wonder on harmonica
Johnny guitar watson,awb,Jerry butler,archie bell
the supremes book I just read was interesting and even dropped juicy details about the group and situations outside of music.
Can you please do a video on Louis Jordan
Thanks for this video. I always wondered why they didn't make it big, because they were beautiful and had a good sound. Any up to date information on Betty Kelly(Kelley)?
I will provide that when I do Martha Reeves and The Vandellas
@@WBPTV Thank you!
Saw them here in Liverpool in their later years and they were still fabulous. They are my favourite girl group
How about Chris Clark?
Please do a video on Nancy Wilson…thanks
4:27 sounds similar to heatwave by the marvelettes their musicians had a signature sound even the funk brothers mr whitfield holland dozier - holland and many other session musicians that aren't given fair credit for their contributions.
Heatwave, by Martha & The Vandellas what Great song. They were a Fabulous group ❤❤
They didn't get recognized for as hit music for Motown, just your basic songs no hit songs , there he goes could of been a great hit but not pushed a lot , at least these ladies did something in their lives
I never heard this story Inknew there was many female groups but I don't know all of them.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
They were before Destiny's
Child. and other female groups.
Those first two singles were so typical Motown fare that it leads one to wonder why they were released on IPG.
I
