DRATS/REFLECTIONS - Live! At The Roostertail, 1967 - Recording Only

[Methuselah2]

I always heard that song as the woman and her female friend all hanging out with her [[lead singers) boyfriend, and then all of a sudden, the lead singer is left behind because her girlfriend has taken her boyfriend from her.

I totally agree with you, Ross--the "someone's missin'" of the three is the lead on the song. Any connection to it being a reference to Flo or the song being about Flo strikes me as a real stretch. A stretch that went "Pop!"

On this version of REFLECTIONS, Diana's voice is certainly much more prominent than that of Mary and Cindy. But I can still hear both clearly, and they sound great to me. But the sound level differences are apparent; could have been the mics or possibly adjustments made later in the processing of the recording. Live recordings can be dicey--but I always preferred equal time and space given to Flo, Mary, and Cindy. But the given seemed to be that it wouldn't be given. And live performances were best on those rare occasions when it was. On the 3 times that I got to attend performances by Diana, Mary, and Flo, I was there to see and hear Diana, Mary, and Flo.
