Of course, I will always recommend also watching the wonderful duo of David Bowie and Mick Jagger, just for the fun of it:

Martha & the Vandellas had so many great songs, and this one has always been one of my favorites. Unparalleled coolness and what an infectious beat -- Damn!

BTW, about 15 years ago we saw Martha Reeves at the big New England fair in Springfield MA.
