Very true. The topic is so idiotic that pretty much all of us have posted with unattached humor. Who really cares to read about Tom Jones and his groupies again? :rolleyes:

Well I did say I was mad at myself for coming into the thread, although I should have said I was mad at myself for reading past the first post. I came into the thread thinking the Eddie in question was Eddie Holland. Thought the three of them might have been seen somewhere and a pic was posted. Should have run out of the thread when I realized it was 50 year old gossip but instead I had to be nosy. So I was angry at myself...triggered by my own stupidity. Perhaps that's what the person is referring to? Oh well, who cares.
It's okay, RanRan. :)
Luke just made the post because Eddie's Unsung came on Sunday, that's all.
I think it’s fitting to end this post making the point that Tom Jones was apparently large even though he was not a tall man
I can't believe much of what Eddie Kendricks says. In one interview he claimed that he never really knew Berry Gordy, that he had only met him two or three times. Get real, he saw BG more than that just during the taping of TCB.
If Gordy didn't like Kendricks, then no way would he have signed Kendricks to a solo deal and give him a string of hit records in the mid 70s. From all that knew Eddie, he was a s**t stirrer. A gentleman with a chemical dependence which destroyed his beautiful voice before he was 40. If memory serves me, Kendricks was arrested at David Ruffin's funeral in Detroit in 1990 and BG bailed him out.
If Kendricks had not dated Diana Ross she would not have been in the Supremes, he was the one who recommended her to Milton Jenkins and Flo. He was certainly not married when they dated. Mary Wilson wrote in her book that she too was lovers with Kendricks in the early 60s
Uh... gonna have to correct you on that: Eddie was not the reason, it was allegedly Paul Williams. But I don't know if I even believe that. The way Mary tells it NOW, SHE was the one who got Diana. Or Florence knew that she sang and asked Mary to bring her. She said this on Flo's Unsung.
As C&C Music Factory said back in the day, "things that make you go hmm".
Can anyone explain to me how who had sex with who 50+ years ago has anything to do with music?
I don't know.
This Supremes "drama" has made me sleepy now [[since the Temptations were far more dramatic).
Ten years ago I'd been sung a different tune lmao
