    If you look at the JML performance Jean was starting to separate but it was too late for the Mass public.

    I think everyone was saying that prior Mary was the strength in the background maintaining an assured "coolness" that projected an elegance and sophistication. Once the group started to become a...

    I absolutely loved High Energy and Mary, Scherrie & Susaye. I think they created an amazing sound in the studio recordings. Live, they just did the exact opposite and did not mesh. I know Mary wrote...

    I didn't become a fan until 1970, so neither Diana Ross or Florence Ballard was in the group at that time. I had to go back and listen to records with them on it. I followed both the Supremes and...

    That was very nice of Lynda to join for the show and for Susaye to be gracious enough to be replaced temporarily.
    With Susaye, that is what the...

    I totally agree, which is why I posed this inquiry to begin with. The Dudgeon songs were great-although I was less fond of Green River-that surely the quality of You Dance My Heart Around the Stars,...

    Dreamgirls used the storyline that Effie and Curtis were a thing before he chose Deena. As for real life, thankfully Berry was not also involved with Flo and Mary.

    I admit when Mary passed I scrutinized Diana's reaction and announcements. I am sure she felt sadness of the loss of a childhood friend and former work colleague, after all they conquered quite a bit...

    Diana Ross is certainly a big part of the song's appeal but the production of the song really is THE element that lifts it beyond just another disco song. Sure, Ross is appealing and playful in her...

    I have a different perspective since I became a fan in 1970 when Jean started with the Supremes and Diana Ross was a soloist. I liked them both for different reasons.

    Mary was always my favorite, but I have to say that I think she was locked into the past. There was no guidance from Motown so I am sure that Mary thought this is what was successful in the past,...

    Why didn't Motown like Mary Wilson?

    It seems to me that Motown was always quite indifferent to Mary Wilson. I don't understand why. She was certainly extremely attractive and photogenic. She was clearly one third of the Supremes,...

    No, it was a case where Motown did the right thing. Someday was the perfect final DRATS song. It wistfully has memories of someone moving on. Had it been her first single, some may have thought is...

    I think in 1974, Cindy was probably hopeful for a variety show since it would keep them off the road and as a Mother to a toddler it probably would have been easier to stay put. Cindy also had...

    I agree that It's All Been Said Before should NOT have been the first single release off of 1975. Maybe as a prerelease of the LP in 1974 it may have whetted some curiosity. He's My Man is a stronger...

    I was so excited to see the Supremes back in 1975! They certainly recorded a lot of songs for this first new album. After Jimmy Webb and the way Jean was starting to sound shrill, this album offered...
