Have been reading articles about the Supremes in concert in 1974/75, and SEVERAL elude [[including an interview with Cindy) that each Supreme has a solo in the show, Cindy's being "You Are the...
I recall reading that as well; maybe in DREAMGIRL? But the timeline doesn't add up, so I don't know.
Or just Scherrie lead, period. The track starts out exciting; the guitars and Scherrie's ad libs and the title in unison. Then smokey old Mary comes in limp and it quickly falls apart.
Midnight Love was released in 1982, well after the Supremes disbanded and Mary's solo career stalled.
Never heard of any of these actors.
One interesting perspective:
When you look at all of the #1 hits of 1975:
Out of 52 weeks, only 17 weeks had a #1 hit that had a female in the group [[groups like Tony Orlando and Dawn and the...
There were claims, at least in a 1974 Supremes Fan Club Newsletter, that Marvin Gaye was set to produce the Supremes next LP, after Supremes 1975.
Weren't there also claims that Marvin was going...
I think that's when Ian Levine [[?) gathered all those Motown artists in the 80's. There's a clip of Wanda singing "Don't Mess With Bill" backed by The Elgins [[?). Apparently Wanda was not in good...
I still don't think I I know who is Scherrie and who is Cindy on the front cover, lol.
The cover does nothing to compliment what's on the LP.
For a while there was a rehearsal [[?) vocal for THIS IS WHY I BELIEVE on YouTube. I always thought it fun and interesting to hear the studio chatter, and the ultimate progression of the song.

I figured it out, #17 was THE SHA-LA BANDIT.

As I mentioned elsewhere, I have recently acquired a fantastic 1974 Supremes Fan Club Newsletter.
It talks about the completion of SUPREMES 1975, and talks about how Suzanne DeP was pushing for...
I recently recieved a fantastic Supremes Fan Club Newsletter from 1974. J RANDY mentions that MSC recorded 17 songs for The Supremes 1975 LP.
I'm only able to track 16:
He's My Man

That's an interesting concept, especially on the '75 LP that Brian Holland had a hand in. I think it might have fit better there, than on HIGH ENERGY.
Do we know if the Vandellas were asked, or did Martha decline on their behalf? As it was, she got 30 seconds, so was it worth the effort?
It's possible that Gladys could have performed on "behalf" of the Marvelettes. It seems as though she was the only one still semi-active in the business, and it likely would have been "Postman" that...
If anything, they should have been promoting YOUR WONDERFUL SWEET SWEET LOVE, which was released in July, unless this hadn't been slated for released when this was taped in June, or prior.
Thanks for posting the date. Mary talks how Jimmy Webb just produced an album for the group, and Wiki says it was finished in June, 1972. I wonder if there was ever any thought of releasing "Tossin'"...
Was this one of Lynda's first performances? She looks so fresh and young and doesn't seem to cut loose as much as she did in later performances.
I thought it was Marvin that wore furs.
I always laugh when Diana introduces Berry; "how long will it take you to get down here, Black? Ladies and gentlemen....." and then SUCH a dramatic sweeping of the hair, lol.
And Berry, lol....
With what little information is provided, it's hard to determine exactly what happened to the trust. It's noted that Flo's sister was a Trustee. I would ASSUME another family was appointed as well....
Honey, those Yahoo Groups and message boards were 🔥!
