MOTOWN PARTY GETTING MORE INTERESTING

Vandellas and Velvelettes: Original group members coming together.

(MAA NEWS)- Jan, 2006. Though Jamie Foxx is not expected to participate in the biggest Motown party in the Motor City during Super Bowl weekend there will be more Motown alum that will join the Motown caravan of stars.

Martha Reeves will be performing with the "original" Vandellas' Annette (Sterling) Helton & Rosalind Ashford- Holmes during the Motown Musicfest February 4, 2006 at the Masonic Temple in Detroit, Michigan. They are expected to perform with Martha Reeves for the first time in quite a while! This combination would make Martha Reeves and the Vandellas 1 of 2 groups with all original members parading through the Motown gala.

The other group with this distinct honor are the Velvelettes who's hit song "Needle In The Haystack" reached #45 Pop on the V.I.P. label in 1964.

Martha & The Vandellas on the other hand have garnered numerous top charting songs on the POP and R&B charts from 1963 to 1971.

Teena Marie is expected to join the stage during the event. Teena who was a Motowner during the Rick James era of "Motown Funk" has agreed to perform with the aura of Motown superstars.
