Ooops--wrong show sorry about that. Still odd that in early 70s Martha and the Vandellas are on TV often performing songs from the mid 60s like Dancing in the Streets. At least they go to do Bless...
Soul train. They also performed Bless You and Love Makes Me Do Foolish things:

I've a feeling this will be a "Poor Flo, pathetic victim of evil Diane and Berry" story.
Sometimes "He Lives in You" from Every Day is a New Day pops up in her show. Such as this one from last year:

How did those around you enjoy her set? Did many take this as an opportunity to run to the bathroom or to the concession stand? Or did they pay attention to the performance? Or ignored it and...
When I saw Rhonda open for her mother a couple of years ago she did a few of her own songs, but also included a cover of "Somewhere" from West Side Story so there was one familiar song for some of...
I wonder if Willie Tyler and Lester ever had a time when their relationship was as toxic and intense as in this episode of The Twilight Zone--The Dummy?
...
Doesn't sound he goes very indepth about their songs and how they were written/structured which is a shame given he's a noted songwriter himself and knows something about the topic.
In a few weeks...
Sounds like their show at this point was still largely the same show JML were doing when that line up came to its end.
Looks like her show has been reconfigured so that instead of having Rhonda open for her, Rhonda now performs a few songs midway through the show so Diana can take a break.
I'd rather Diana sing...
In other words Free to be you and me was the most successful album, sales wise, that Diana Ross ever worked on.

Diana does a nice job singing When We Grow Up. I'm surprised she didn't explore doing her own Children's album in the 80s, especially something tied in or as a follow up to Central Park concert as...
What did Smokey Robinson have to say about Bacharach and David's songwriting?
Even if her participation in this came through working with Danny Thomas [[and it's a good theory) Motown would still have had to grant permission for her to be on this project as she was under...
Well it's a children's album so that may be why it's billed as being by "Marlo Thomas and Friends" rather than "Marlo Thomas and associates from the worlds of show business and sports".
And...
Ann and Nancy Wilson of Heart are back on tour and will be doing shows for the next 6-7 months. Right now Ann is singing everything live, but doesn't appear to have much voice left. And she doesn't...
One Supremes song that doesn't seem to rate much discussion, it seems, is Lovelight. However it was the song that gave the group their first top 40 hit. What was it about this song, in your...
How about the FLOS touring with Diana Ross as opening act? That could free up Ross' set list to do less Supremes songs [[though she obviously can't skip them entirely) and more of her solo songs. ...
Fans reading too much into something re: anything Supremes related?!!! Perish the thought!
Ever hear of a song called Love to Love You Baby? I suspect Love Hangover came about to capitalize on the success of that song.
Green Onions came out in 1962. Was this a song he danced to at his college graduation?
