'''''Natural Resources''''' is a [[soul]] album released by [[Motown]] girl group [[Martha Reeves and the Vandellas]] in 1970 on the Gordy ([[Motown]]) label. The album is significant for the [[Vietnam War]] ballad "[[I Should Be Proud]]" and the slow jam, "Love Guess Who". The album marked a return from lead singer [[Martha Reeves]], recovering from a time in a mental institution after an addiction to [[painkillers]] nearly wrecked her (though it still took her until 1977 to beat her addiction). This was the next-to-last album for the Vandellas, whose success had peaked in the late-1960s.
