Supremes in Paris

[luke]

Mary's voice often comes thru but not Flo's. Is this because of Mary's alto vs Flo's soprano? Sometimes Flo comes thru but not as much as Mary's. Diana vg here. Do I remember reading the crowd really loves the Vandellas?https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=0FKJwHk6iB4

Mary's mic might be turned up a bit higher than Flo's, but I wouldn't say Flo's voice doesn't come through. I hear her pretty clearly throughout. But Mary does sound a bit more prominent than usual. I thought they did "People" during this set, no?

There were some mike issues during the Paris recording. Years later, some songs were able to be fixed and were included on the MORE HITS BY THE SUPREMES expanded edition, which is where I believe the audio for this video was taken from.

Last year, the complete MOTORTOWN REVUE IN PARIS was released on cd. It included extra songs by all of the acts, including PEOPLE by the Supremes. But the audio issues remained. However, listening to it, you could really hear Mary doing great harmony in her part.

They are spot on as usual and Diane to my ears anyway, seems to be singing in a lower register which sounds good. Their timing on live shows is always perfect.
