I had no idea she was a blue-eyed soul singer! WOW...
Jean Carn. Truly the one that got away. It's criminal that she wasn't a much bigger star. Phenomenal vocalist. Classy and stylised.
Do I Love You [[Indeed I Do) and Time And Love are prime examples of reusing a track. It happened several times. I've gone through all those listed above and it's clear the practice was frequent in...
Last week here in the UK I heard 'Gotta See Jane' on the radio and the DJ said "That's R Dean Taylor - one of only two white artists ever signed to Motown, the other being Chris Clark". When I'd...
Apart from The Supremes LP, can anyone think of cover versions on the label of this great man's work?
Thanks in advance.
Steve, UK.
I went to the shows [[both of them) at the Odeon, Birmingham in '72. I met Thelma for the very first time there. She was walking down the street towards the theatre stage door with her green gown in...
Such as Jimmy Ruffin's Brokenhearted/Isley's Smile and Diana/Jean Supremes' Time & Love.
Can anyone out there enlighten me to more? Whether the lyric is completely different or it's the same old...
Well, thank God for Spotify! Great list and I'll be using some of those recommendations for sure.
Oooh! Gonna check that one out. So she had the same experience as me - Ha!
Plus Berry confronting Martha over her drug abuse. Nothing new - it's all well documented.
Followed a group because of the backing singers? Never heard that one before.
Yep, I agree.
Week commencing 28th March I'm having an hour long Motown girl-group special on my radio show. I'd like to include some great tracks that might have passed me by [[because back in the day I was so...
WOW. Thanks for those. Much appreciated.
How true! Endless love certainly ain't Endless for both Diana and Lionel [[both ended in divorce!). Welcome to the REAL world...
Great - and no prob with remixes - the rarer, the better! I have to edit down some because theyre too long for a radio show. I found a brilliant remix of Marvin's Grapevine from 1999. Playing that in...
Great! Thank you.
Oooooh! I'll definitely check that out. Now how did that pass me by?
Songs like the Isley's Behind a Painted Smile, Marvin's Mercy, Mercy, Me, Stevie's Sir Duke, The Supremes/Four Tops Love The One You're With...
Can you guys help me compile a list of anything...
Where would I find it? All the versions I've checked are mono.
Anyone enlighten me?
Thanks in advance.
And OK, it's only one letter, but The Supremes' STONE LOVE. That's clearly what Jean sings on the million seller - no d. Put down to mis-cataloguing by whoever prepared it for release, I read...
Absolutely correct! I know this is an old thread but I'd like to add this. Jean has had some bad press down the years about being difficult. I spent a lot of hours during various tours on the road...
I thought it was about time someone made it absolutely clear to the world just who is - and who isn't - an authentic member of the biggest female trio in pop music history.
Why have I done this?...
Loved the mans voice. He's up the in individuality stakes with Levi, Ollie and Dennis. We don't get Unsung documentaries here in the UK so just watched his on YouTube. So Teddy was bisexual,...
I still say EIGHT. WHY? Because the Supremes iconic image and group format is that of a trio. It's Eight ladies who contributed to the hits and it's those Eight ladies whose images appear on the...
