Martha Reeves, the legendary Motown powerhouse whose timeless hits with Martha Reeves & The Vandellas include “Dancing in the Street,” “Heat Wave,” “Jimmy Mack,” and “Nowhere to Run,” appeared Friday on the Beaver County Radio Morning Show.

Reeves spoke about her new single, “”To Know You Is to Love You,” released earlier that morning.

Here is what Reeves had to say (just press play):

Reeves not only helped define American music, but laid the foundation for generations of female superstars who followed, from Beyoncé to Lady Gaga sighting her as an influence.

Now, after more than two decades, the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame icon is returning with her first new album at nearly 85 years old, proving her influence, voice, and cultural impact are as powerful as ever.
