I got my album for $1 at Woolworth's in Indiana, PA. They could have kept The Sha-La Bandit off of my album. I do not find it appealing at all. Folks seem to like it, but for me it's blah.

I got my album for $1 at Woolworth's in Indiana, PA. They could have kept The Sha-La Bandit off of my album. I do not find it appealing at all. Folks seem to like it, but for me it's blah.
I don't remember this album ever being out, but I was a kid and unless it was on tv, I just listened to whatever was on the radio, or whatever my big sister, who had already moved away from home had...
During the time period that Bad Weather came out, I can remember my older sister carrying a whistle in her pocketbook in case she went out after work. It was the rage here at the clubs. That's one of...
Here in Philly combined with the fact that I wasn’t old enough to go clubs, I would catch the Supremes on tv to find out what was released. A lot of songs people write about, I don’t remember hearing...
I thought this was a staple everywhere! I guess I am wrong. I’ve heard it every Christmas season and Day since birth.
Another “misprint” I have is not the writing, but the speed. My copy of the Valerie Simpson 45, Silly is pressed at the wrong speed. It too fast played at 45, yet it’s too slow at 33 1/2. Never...
I have a Switch ll album. The mistake on my album is the track, which love is Calling on All GRILS instead of Girls.
Great article! I have a special connection with Ms. B, as I met her during the years before the rest of the world finally caught up with her. I love her music, and there is nothing like seeing her in...
Sarah said this to me personally. Out of respect, those of us in the conversation didn’t press her for details. Also, I recently met a woman who introduced herself on stage as Cindy’s baby sister....
My next door neighbor used to play and sing “Surfer Boy” so much that I learned to like it! Now, I think they do a poor job of lip syncing it in the movie, and audience spliced into the performance...
You ain’t lying about that!!!!
Ever since I heard it, I thought that “Everything Wonderful” was/is a great song.
Although most know Nona as a singer, she’s had success as a songwriter. I know she also does visual arts. She’s not as popular as Mary. I think Mary has this topic thread on lock as the queen.
I know this is old, looking back in the thread, but...I’m confused. What is this?
Just beautiful!
To me it sounds like the song falls apart at toward the end. It seems like Diana is just holding on here. Overall, I like the idea of hearing 3-part harmony from them. It doesn’t sound like a hit to...
This was such an interesting interview. It was a little deeper than the usual questions that we as fans could answer at this point since we’ve heard them so much.
I’ve been listening to “Take Me Higher”. I’m stuck on “Gone” which I wish had gotten airplay, at least here in Philly. One of the morning syndicated DJs used to rock the title cut quite frequently.
Mary Wilson doesn’t have to live in anyone’s shadow. Everyone who needs to know, knows who she is. I think it’s great that she doesn’t say “It’s not going to happen”. Why give up hope? She doesn’t...

I never understood the intention of the song. I saw a clip of them singing it on American Bandstand. I just think it is a dreadful song. HOWEVER, I still love the Supremes.

It’s my understanding that Diana Ross had the same type of personality in the days before the hits. I got this from someone who grew up with her. She always thought highly of herself and carried...
I’d like to know more about the Velvelettes and Brenda Holloway.
