The lead vocal credit for track 1.27 is listed as Yvonne?. The question mark was put there by one of the compilers when doubt arose whether it really was Yvonne Vernee Allen singing lead on the track. As it stands now, no consensus has been reached, but many Motown scholars and fans agree that it's most likely not Yvonne.
