In memory of Marvelettes founder and lead singer Gladys Horton, who's just died:
She was 66. She recorded this, in 1961, when she was just 17. It was Motown's first no. 1 on the US pop charts. Later covered by the Beatles, of course.
Not forgetting the funkier Too many fish in the sea from 1964.
Good recent picture of her here in the Detroit Free Press obituary.
