    ANDANTES

    Can anyone tell me about the motown singers.. THE ANDANTES ?
    I have a 12" single by them called LIGHTNING NEVER STRIKES TWICE. It was a recording they did in the late 80s with Ian Levine.
    I believe they were the Motown "in house" backing singers ? is this correct ? Did they release much material ?

    yes they were motown backing singers,and no they never released much,they recorded ' like a nightmare/if you were mine' for the v.i.p label in 64 it wasnt released, though a few copies exist so you better start saving valued at $6000 :o possibly more today should one be for sale

    That track is not so rare on CD. It's on Motown's Nortern Soul 1 and 2 which is a British import. It will probably run about $30 for the double disc set and includes about 40 uptempo lesser known songs from Motown.
