The Velvelettes

The Velvelettes 


   The Velvelettes were one of the early Motown Girl Groups that faded after more attention were given to The Supremes, from their label. Please take a listen here and have a fun Sunday: Lonely lonely girl I am , There he goes , That's the reason why , He was really sayin' something , A bird in the hand , Bring back the sunshine , These things will keep me loving you and Needle in a Haystack
