I'll also go on record agreeing about the album. I love most of the songs and vocal performances by both superstars. My least favorite is ironically the one they recorded together in the studio. On...

^This!! I was going to mention the Marvin/Tammi duets but you beat me to the punch :).

Classy, eloquent and heartfelt. Thank you, Susaye, Last Supreme. Thanks for posting, blackguy69.

Just read this, too. Stirred up the pain of missing her but also smiles and a laugh. Forever Supreme.

Unusual, surprising choices. Not all, but most, would comfortably be in my Top Twenty. Love the commentary. "There is no cure"!

I love Liza in Cabaret and Diana in Lady! Both excellent performances and both superb films. I never saw Cicely in Sounder, but I'm sure all three performances deserved an Oscar.

Wonderful, amazing memories!!! Thankyou.

Amen to this!

Thank you for posting. It made me feel a little bit closer to our Supreme. Unbelievable loss.

Saw her sing Can't Take My Eyes Off You at the Forum in 1969. For me, it was quite...

So thoughtful, thought-out and well-reasoned, RanRan. As per usual and expected. A long time ago, way before the internet, I foolishly thought I was the biggest Supreme and Diana Ross fan. :rolleyes:...

The best, and still my favorite, is Neither One of Us. It was a magnificent close to the Motown era. Best Thing That Ever Happened To Me is my favorite post-Motown Weatherly/Knight/Pips.

Lovely. I always enjoy her sexy lower register, in this song and performance contrasting nicely with the lilting high notes. I would have loved hearing this live.

They still have It! What a great way to start a Sunday morning. Thank you for bringing it to us.

I found All of You rather boring, too. Julio & Willie and To All the Girls I've Loved Before was interesting and different. I've wondered what would have been a similarly intriguing song and concept...

Back In My Arms Again (Hullabaloo) Pure DMF
Reflections (Hollywood Palace) Pure DRATS
Love Child (Ed Sullivan) Even though it was lip-synched, the "natural, street clothes" look was stunning and I...

I liked NMWSYA well enough on first release. I enjoyed the Sullivan appearance very much. Then I thought it was a too obvious and blatant capitalization on Aquarius. Then it quickly slipped out of...

This.

when I first heard this cover I thought it was the worst cover of a pop song I ever heard. Then I heard Hang on Sloopy, which is far worse. DR's voice is just not...

Good ideas listed above, RanRan. I understand why a Diana/Mary reunion most probably won't happen. I will be perfectly happy with just another photo like the Diana/Berry/Mary reunion at the...

So much fun reading all your first experiences!

I heard Stop! In The Name of Love on our family car radio in 1965 when I was 11. When it started playing,...

I agree, Ollie & Sup-fan. The album is a gem of an album as is. Smile and Kiss Me Now close both sides perfectly. I've always loved Ain't Nothin' But A Maybe. I forgot it was produced by Diana!

I agree with all this, Bobby. I do think the racial element may have been a part of the backlash, though. And let's not forget the Gay backlash element. But I agree the biggest failure was the...

My list of the Top Female Pop Singers (so far, in time and in America, my perception only!):
1. Madonna
2. Diana Ross
3. Aretha Franklin
4. Barbra Streisand
5. Mariah Carey
6. Whitney Houston...

Bobby, I've loved Marianne Faithfull from the first time I heard As Tears Go By in 1964. (I was an infant in my crib :rolleyes:). She had an enchanting, ethereal voice and presence. I remember an...

I was working evening shift only a couple of miles from the Forum the night of the concert. I was sad and jealous that some friends and a coworker were able to attend. They excitedly told me about it...
