    Joyce Vincent Wilson is the perfect fit

    I was lead to this video from Theboyfromxtown's post of "Hold On I'm Coming"Joyce's delivery of Come See About Me is great and not to over the top! Both Joyce and Telma always had a Supremey air about them! She is the best choice and the perfect compliment for the Flos imo!

    Imo Joyce sounds the best out of the three singing lead on the Supremes songs. Scherrie has dialed it back vocally quite a bit [[in a good way) and Lynda stray's away from the melody [[which make her sound off key) for my taste. Lynda has a fantastic voice but she over do it vocally too often.

    Joyce was a good choice for the FLOS. She at least has an oblique connection to The Supremes, being an "Almost Supreme," tapped to replace Mary, should Motown have decided to continue the group with no original members. Sundray couldn't make such a claim even if she was Lynda's sister, and Freddie of course had no connection whatsoever. Also, Joyce had enjoyed public exposure and some name recognition when she was half of Dawn. It's regrettable, of course, that the FLOS are occasionally billed as The Supremes, but that seems not to be happening very much anymore. It's a solid act.

    Plus Joyce like Scherrie is a Detroiter! It seems the ladies from Detroit have a more of an appreciation and respect for the legacy.

    I didn't know or forgot that Joyce was from Detroit. Did she ever initiate any interest in Motown Records?
    Thanks

    I always liked Joyce when she was a part of Tony Orlando and Dawn. Although these ladies are great together. IMO it just seems weird to have a former Supreme Ladies group with the addition of a well known member from another group. It is more like former ladies of the Supremes and Dawn.

    Joyce is a true sweetheart I've had the pleasure of getting to know over the past few years. Joyce and her sister Pam did a lot of background work in Detroit, especially at the HDH Invictus label I'm pretty sure...BTW...There were actually 3 female members of Dawn, at least so far as the recordings...Pam also sang background for Tony Orlando with Joyce and Thelma, however, she wasn't part of the television group...
