    I do think they look fantastic. That was really the first time I'd seen Cindy after the Supremes. She looked great, even if her gown was boxy.

    Diana always looks great. Did she have a run in her...

    I thought it was Claudette that borrowed Cindy the dress. Brad says Freda; I'm guessing he's right.

    However: neither Claudette or Freda, at least to me, appear to be the same size as Cindy. Not...

    I've always chalked this up as another Motown Myth. Diana didn't even want to participate, now you're going to tell her what to wear? I could MAYBE see a discussion about filming; what colors look...

    What was the supposed dress code for DMC that night? Silver? To match Diana? Isn't Cindy's borrowed evening gown white?

    Right! Even with Diana-lead Supremes, they RARELY ever did an album cut. I can only think of "Mother Dear", but that was slated for potential release, and done on TV, not in concert.

    One thought is: back in the heyday of the Supremes, HDH were writing songs specifically for the group, tailored to Diana's lead and [[in most cases) Mary and Flo's backing.

    Not to hijack your thread to talk about Mary, but I've always wondered when she recorded "Send Him To Me" and "If You Let Me Baby" if those were intended as DRATS tracks, or "New" Supremes tracks. I...

    Recording Members / Touring Members

    Is it POSSIBLE that Flo could have stayed with the Supremes as a recording member, and Cindy could have joined as a touring member?

    It seems the majority of Flo's "issues" were on the "road". The...

    Years ago I saw a featurette on the "making" of Divas Live, Diana Ross. It was truly eye opening. I wish it were still on YouTube.

    Lol, that's likely more the story.

    M25 was likely the 1st and last time she'd been a room with Martha, Claudette, the 4T, Temptations, and Mary Wells since "the old days". You got Diana who'd...

    I agree, and thank you. Regardless of whether Mary mentioned it in an book or press, anyone can CLEARLY see that Mary attempted to "hand back" the song to Diana. I think that hand gesture she makes...

    Always found it funny that Diana would go on about how Berry had/s always felt that he'd never really been appreciated, to a point where she gets a little emotional. Yet she was the one that left...

    I think the cold shouldering at the event hits the nail on the head. Had BG and Diana talked much she left Motown? Was he still licking his wounds? I'm sure others like Martha Reeves weren't greeting...

    I've always surmised that Soft Cell had recently had a hit with "Tainted Love/WDOLG" so it was a lame attempt to bring something "youthful" to the program. Since Soft Cell were basically unknown,...
