The Mirettes were made up of Vanetta Fields, Robbie Montgomery and Jessie Smith; three defectors from Ike & Tina Turner Ikettes. These three super singers struck out on their own and released some truly fantastic singles (and an LP!) for a number of different labels.
This track, while recorded in LA, sounds like a lost Motown cut with the arrangement and sound being much in the vein of Martha & The Vandellas; and as you and I know, that's a VERY good thing.
from 1966...

Robbie and Jessie just showed up at Bonnaroo as backing vocalists for Dr. John/Allen Toussaint/Meters set performing Doc's album "Desitively Bonnaroo"- sounded great! Not as great as this old 'un though!
