There doesn't seem to be a whole lot out there on the Jean Supremes but a few here and there. I always thought these gowns were white but only saw them in b&w. Does any one happen to have a decent size image of them in these gowns standing by a tree? I had a small one years ago but it's long gone. Also, I'm guessing this was mid-late 1971? Thanks!

On display at Mary's gown exhibition.
Thanks davidh & longtimefan. I'm familiar with the FB groups and sometimes forget to check in. I just recently saw that photo of Mary with those gowns, how ironic. That first one is amazing longtimefan, thanks so much! There was one I saw that was b&w but they were in a more serious pose facially. But it's cool, I never saw the one you posted before. You guys have probably seen this but here's one on stage.

Interesting to note that those gowns were originally long-sleeved and apparently, at some point, the group [[or Mary?) had the sleeves cut off. I wonder if the long sleeves made it very hot for the girls on stage under the lights? They're pretty sexy gowns--lots of cleavage and that slit goes up reeeeeeeeeally high! ;) I've long liked these--but I'm not sure whether I like them better with or without sleeves.
What a stunning photo. Why was this never on an album cover???Quote:

Just a few examples as there are endless ideas but not enough photo's. The Blues & Soul cover is another favorite. I would love to have a larger image of that but work with what I have.

In the yellow gowns Cindy is just overflowing in.....overflowing in.....well.....overflowing. ;)
I noticed that too, Nathan. Cindy is rather, well, buxom, for want of a better word. :)
BTW, those album cover mockups are fantastic!

to bad the Steve Wonder tracks never came out , only Bad Weather and Soft Days and 4 more sit in the vaults. now that would have been a great album. need a album cover for that Supremes Soft Days
Three of those tracks are unfinished.
The bright yellow picture above would be great for LOST AND FOUND: SOFT DAYS. :-)Quote:

What's up with that New Ways stuff?

The title of the thread is "Jean Terrell era photos" - and the pictures from the "New Ways" album cover fall under that criteria.Quote:

These yellow gown pics were used for an album cover in Japan.

Always liked those yellow gowns. My instinct says they're from about mid-late 1971? Very interesting album cover. We never got picture sleeves for the 70s group but many imports. I've seen a Bad Weather sleeve with Cindy on it and I believe vice versa. So much for detail. As I said in the beginning of this thread it's always hard to find many rare photo's with Jean, 1970 - 1971. Thanks for sharing.
