And you will have an opportunity to ask them questions if you care to...just post your queries here and we will try to get to them all. Please....join me, and Susaye and Scherrie...tonight...on "Nightflight"...on WOMR 92.1 FM Provincetown and WFMR 91.3 FM Orleans and we are streaming live worldwide in digital stereo at www.womr.org No phone calls tonight please....I'll be on the phone with the ladies.....Thanks!

My question is what will they be performing in their live set in LA in July? Will it include both "High Energy" and "Come Into My Life," my two favorite post-Diane Supremes songs?

Hi John,

Someone asked me if I was seasick since I looked so Green today but I explained my color was caused by envy at the quality time you get to spend with two Supreme Supremes this evening....;)

Really looking forward to hearing the story of this classic album and perhaps you can find out for me from Scherrie & Susaye what's the best remedy to get rid of goosebumps because their vocals on Another Life From Now and When The Day Comes Every Night cause them every time I listen!

See you tonight at nine!
Glen

2 Premes 2 Night!:)

C U Later!!!

Borrowing from another SDFMF thread -
"Before There Was Pharrell" there were Scherrie & Susaye who made us 'VERY HAPPY' and will most assuredly do so once again tonight!

John,
Please please please ask them:
If the LA engagement is successful, would they please, please, please consider an East Coast event so those of us who can't travel to LA can still see their Supreme-ness?.
Thanks,
thanx al

P.S. I absolutely adore "Leaving Me was the Best Thing You've Ever Done" and "When the Night Comes". Thank you for such a wonderful album!

I will certainly bring it up,thanksal! Hope you'll listen in for the answer! Thanks, Al!

I'll be listening. Hello Scherrie and Susaye. I met Scherrie a few years ago in Atlanta after their performance at the Tabernacle for a benefit. I got the opportunity to get in the limo with Scherrie and Freddi. I spent about 5 minutes with them. My day was satisfied after meeting Scherrie.

http://youtu.be/3NfHueo_rUk My extended instrumental version of "Love I Never Knew You Could Feel So Good".!!

Scherrie & Susaye
In an pre-wardrobe-malfunction era, when you appeared with Mary on Soul Train to lipsynch to 'You're My Driving Wheel", it appeared that with the dance movements that there was about to be an unplanned major revelation especially with you, Scherrie & Susaye with your fantastic figures. Do you remember that performance and were you aware of the possibility that those outfits might fail you?

I forget, Susaye dear, so please refresh my memory.
How many master tapes were you hoping to 'Borrow' from the vaults that day? Only those three or others? It's a shame that your 'lookout' Supreme partner never showed up to distract dear Andy. I see that he's holding on to you for dear life, trying to prevent your escape and probably threatening to contact the police.
But it was clever and so resourceful of you to talk him out of contacting the authorities by singing "Love I Never Knew You Could Feel So Good" personally to him. That turned the tables and he was putty in your arms.
And we all know that Scherrie didn't mind your taking over the lead in that emergency situation!

....in the studio....Howdeeeeeeeeee!!!

Not in the studio....but happy to be here.

Remastered fabulously by Kevin Reeves- but without the bonus tracks that Harry Weinger/Ume offered for the re-issue. Maybe someday.

Gonna be a great show! Looking forward to it!

Please let us know if you can or can't get on...thanks Kenneth.

I like that Scherrie Payne recording about 'Yester Year'. Is it available?

Did Scherrie and Susaye do any Motown promo work for the album Partner's during its original release ?
