Martha and the Vandellas performing in Ford's Mustang plant

"Nowhere to Run" was shot at the Dearborn assembly line for a 1965 TV show. Only bits have aired since then. Here's the full, newly remastered video.

1. The Holland-Dozier-Holland partnership.

Some of the best music ever.

2. Very cool.

But a bit disconcerting to see the paint sprayers working without respirators.

4. I was thinking the same.....

can you see some OSHA people sitting somewhere watching that?

But a GREAT video - thanks!

5. I worked on that line that painted hoods and fenders back in 1972 for

about a year. Back then, every one use to wash their hands in paint thinner at the end of the shift. These days there are all kinds of warning labels on that thinner.

6. And not a mask to be seen - anywhere!

3. Some of those scenes are in this music video too.

The band was Stix and Stoned and the song was The Rouge Plant Blues. Skip to about 4:00.

7. Love it! I was at a recording session a few years ago in Detroit.

We ran into the Vandellas recording a song with their pastor. They still sing great. One of the ladies was still a smoker. I was a little surprised.
