Shindig! Velvelettes Special (01/04/11)

The Velvelettes

Shindig! radio show from April 1, 2011 was dedicated to
a favorite Motown band of mine : The Velvelettes.
Here's the podcast of the show :



Tracklist :
1. (The) Monkey (Hokey Pokey)
2. Ain't No Place Like Motown
3. Needle In A Haystack
4. The Boy From Crosstown
5. Throw A Farewell Kiss
6. Ain't That Good News (Live)
7. A Bird In The Hand (Is Worth Two In The Bush)

The Velvelettes performing "He Was Really Saying Something"
(which I featured a little while back on Shindig!)
in July 1989

Needle In A Haystack - The Velvelettes
August 1990

And I found this vid of The Twilights from Australia from 1966
covering "Needle In A Haystack"
It was their biggest hit in Australia

And as there is not so many video of The Velvelettes on
the Internet as you can guess, here is the first part of
a Kinks' concert from April 24, 1965
from Le Palais De La Mutualité in Paris, France
Bye Bye Johnny - The Kinks

As you may have noticed, I'm in a "Kinks' mood" so I'll post
the rest of this show in my future posts
Be sure to don't miss it
