“Honey Chile” #11 12/30/1967

We begin 1968 with the first single credited to Martha Reeves and the Vandellas (note the name change), and their last Top 40 pop hit - also the first with Martha’s sister Lois in the group. Ms. Reeves was born in Eufaula, Alabama and the song contains quite a few black Southern expressions. Video starts with a jingle from CKLW, Windsor, Ontario (Detroit), one of the greatest Top 40 stations of them all.
