Martha Reeves & The Vandellas - Forget Me Not I Promise To Wait My Love
Review by Zayne Upton
Martha Reeves & The Vandellas' latest album, Forget Me Not I Promise To Wait My Love, is a nostalgic journey through Motown's golden era. The album's 12 tracks showcase the group's signature sound, blending soulful vocals with upbeat melodies and catchy hooks.
The album's title track, "Forget Me Not," is a standout with its memorable chorus and infectious rhythm. "Love (Makes Me Do Foolish Things)" is another highlight, with Reeves' emotive vocals conveying the pain of heartbreak. The album also features a cover of The Supremes' "Come See About Me," which showcases the group's harmonies and tight instrumentation.
One of the album's strengths is its ability to balance upbeat tracks with more emotional ballads. "I Promise To Wait My Love" is a beautiful ode to commitment, while "What Am I Going To Do Without Your Love" is a heart-wrenching breakup song.

About Martha Reeves & The Vandellas
Martha Reeves & the Vandellas were an american vocal group. They were one of the most successful groups in the Motown roster during the 1960's performing primarily soul, but also pop and rock'n'roll.
In 1967 the group's name was officially changed from Martha & The Vandellas to Martha Reeves & The Vandellas, to conform with the company's recent changes of The Supremes and The Miracles's names to profile their featured lead singers.
