9 years! Seriously Paul? That's got to be a record. You'll need to update the date in the liner notes on the artwork!
'Touch by touch' comes to mind. I thought it sounded very 80's back in the 80's. And not in a good way.
Each to their own. I think this cover is truly brilliant. It is saying that 3 microphones and 3 obviously female black mouths are so iconic that you don't need to show any more than that to know it's...

So very sad to hear this news. I have a most cherished memory of being in her room while she rehearsed 'Let love live' with the girls. She was such a dear, sweet Lady. [[Thanks John for making...
Not bad for a 78 year old!!!!
Lol

I'm amazed at the Nellie negatives on here. The Lady is 78 years old! Of course she won't put on a show to match the 70's and 80's. All I saw was thousands of people having an amazing time...
The concert as a whole was absolutely amazing. She had a tough job being the showstopper after so many incredible performances. But Diana's voice was on fine form. Only fail was her microphone being...
Lol. You're probably right John. But I'm not quite there yet.
I have front row seats with a pal for her show at the O2 next month. Believe me..Diana will be performing for hundreds of Queens when she visits the U.K! ;)
With the Queen's Jubilee, Glastonbury and a potential new hit single around the corner - it doesn't get any better than this for Diana. She is literally all over the news and internet here in the...
For someone who has absorbed a lifetime of world culture, I was a bit shocked and disappointed with all the profanity throughout the book. It's not very dignified. But anyway, he comes across as a...
I remember when this was a hit here in the U.K and she sang it live on 'Top of the Pops' [[a t.v programme that was the national equivalent of BBC radio 1). I completely fell in love with her all...
There was a big rival in the sound of 60's soul in the U.K at that time. Stevie Wonder's 'Part time lover' was massive because it sounded retro. Even Phil Collins got in on the act with You can't...
I remember this being played on BBC radio 1 at the time of release in the U.K. [[Radio 1 was THE national station where chart hits were made) The DJ played about 30 seconds of the record then ripped...
I've just discovered this on YouTube. It doesn't sound familiar at all. And I thought I'd heard everything. Does anyone have and info on this rather groovy medley?

Tonight I saw an ad on t.v [[here in the U.K) for the new album and was surprised to hear Diana personally promoting it. I can't remember her ever doing that before. And billboards on London...
It's a very odd film but part of that new wave of cinema which was ultra cool and 'with it'. I love that scene with the album's. It's a clear statement that we are in the 'know', and this music is...
Sorry if the link doesn't work for everyone. My Grandmother bought me the single when I was 16. They know, you know!
BBC News - Carl Bean, singer of LGBT pride anthem I Was Born This Way, dies...
Woohoo! My copy arrived today. It's so great to get some 'new' Motown in my hands and around my ears. Huge thanks to Keith Hughes and all the team at ACE. 19280
Wow I never knew that. Why did they never appear again? I know Ed had a soft spot for Diana but the Supremes continued with a winning formula for at least a couple of years. They really deserved a...
I'm sure there's enough fans of both Brenda and the Supremes out there to make this a success. Shall we leave that thought with you Paul? 😃
I the liner notes to Paul's superb 'Brenda Holloway - Spellbound' double CD, it's noted that Brenda recorded most of the Supremes Disney songs as demos. It would be nice if the these recordings...
It maybe wishful thinking but I'll bet there's a studio recording of this by Martha & the Vandellas buried in the vaults.
Like many other fans I would love to hear Diana Ross singing Arlen classics. But the date worries me. The 80's was the decade of synthesisers. I recently listened to Streisand's Broadway album again...
