Ed Sullivan Show ~ December 1970 The Supremes and The Four Tops Medley (What If?)
After a recent discussion on here, and based on the recollection of Cindy Birdsong, WHAT IF this proposed joint appearance of both groups on The Ed Sullivan Show in December 1970 singing a medley of "Still Waters [[Love)/River Deep, Mountain High" happened?
Would sales for both songs increased? Would it have given both groups a much needed jolt?
How would it sound? Who would take lead? What costumes would they have worn? How would the medley have been arranged? I have an idea of how I would have done it and I'm currently experimenting with a mix that might capture how Johnnie Allen and Gil Askey would have done it.
I really wish this would have become a reality, but circumstances beyond our control prevented it from happening...only if...
