This #BlackHistoryMonth has got us “Dancing In The Street” with Martha & The Vandellas 💃 Coming in at #40 on @RollingStone’s 2004 list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time, the track was recorded as a demo after being turned down by other artists, with songwriters Marvin Gaye, Ivy Hunter & William “Mickey” Stevenson on backing vocals. “When Martha got into the song,” Stevenson said, “that was the end of the conversation!” Watch the full performance at the link in our Story!
