Jermaine Jackson too [[having married Gordy's daughter being an additional fact).

The 12" deep blue series from 1976 to 1979 beginning with*M-00001D1 [[The Original's "Down to love town"/Jermaine Jackson's "Let's be young tonight")*and ending with*M-00035D1 [[Diana Ross' "No One...
"Save The Best For Me", also titled "Save The Best For Me [[Best Of Your Lovin')".
Unfortunately, that is the simple truth.

How would you classify/define a song or record that...
Oh yes... :-)

2.5 years later the Supremes hit #1 on the disco...
You are right. Besides, in this single the production could be better: there is something forced, falsely frantic with piercing vocals [[but nevertheless the record is not up tempo!); that could be...
:-)
I agree.
Even though I have everything the Pointer Sisters recorded, IMO, the main problem in the 80's was that Richard Perry's goal wasn't to make classics but to have radio hits with the sound of the...
Her 1980 and 1981 albums were excellent.
They could have add many songs that were released way after like:
For once in my life 4:50
Fire don’t burn 3:20
We can never light that old flame again 4:40
You build me up to tear me down 5:40...
I don't know about Knight. I was talking about Wilson: I was saying that she was wearing a wig. Actually why those women in the R&B world wear wigs? Isn't their own hair beautiful? Why do they hide...
Like in the good old days, it's a very beautiful wig.
IMO, the material Motown submitted to High Inergy was not always first rate, so it is hard to have an exciting compilation. I have all their records but I have to confess I don't listen to them very...
There is an alternate version of "I am me" from her 1982 lp on the "Shockwaves" European 12" single. It's 4:27 long [[and 3:47 on the Silk Electric lp and the "Muscles" 7" single).
When were recorded the songs on the A side of the lp "To Love Again"? In 1981? 1980? Before?
I thought "It's my turn" was recorded in 1980 and the others after [[so in my mind they were 5 periods...
In 1982, Motown issued an album of unreleased material by Thelma Houston [[Reachin' All Around). It was a nice lp. The album was more R&B than disco and many songs were remixed to fit with the sound...
I think it is "Revelations".
"Sweet summertime livin'" would also have been included.
"We Can never Light That Old flame again" and "Old Funky Rolls" seem to be rescued from this project.

In the case of Ross, it was surely better for her bank account and her financial independence but from an artistic perspective I am not sure her self-produced albums will stand the test of time like...
Her perseverance is truly amazing.
