In my opinion both Flo Ballard and Brenda Holloway were the two best and the most underrated Female Singers of Motown. Neither ever received the recognition they truly deserved.
And ” The Andantes “ were the most recorded group in Motown’s history. They sang background vocals with every Motown Group.

Listening to Brenda H right now and don’t want it to ever end. What a beautiful voice (one time you can judge a book by its cover).
You better believe it Eric.
She was absolutely awesome. She also tore up on “Every Little Bit Hurts”, that song bore her soul to the depths. I have featured that one as well as it was my ultimate favorite from her. When I think of how many artists Berry Gordy held down it makes me beyond sick.
Glad you enjoyed it.
