From the 80s, Debarge.

Was Flo really booked at the Latin Casino? That seems a rather prestigious gig for someone with no solo hits, especially a 1500 seat venue. I know she did a gig at the Wonder Garden in Atlantic City...

I think the b-side I'M GLAD ABOUT IT had hit potential of its own.

I think THE BIGGER YOU LOVE from DYNAMITE was another one that was all Levi as opposed to a duet.

LOVE THE ONE YOU'RE WITH actually ended up as a bonus track on the cd reissue of NEW WAYS BUT LOVE...

I believe this is actually the opening.

Many years ago, I had a bootleg of this appearance. It had a few seconds that are missing from the top of this clip. Ernie says something like "Here is...

I'm not really a fan of the Supremes/Tops duets but each album does have its moments.

Re YOU GOTTA HAVE LOVE IN YOUR HEART, I always wondered why towards the end, Levi basically disappears,...

In her book, Diana did say that in retrospect she wished she had just cancelled the Radio City engagement. But keeping her word is very important and she has rarely cancelled an engagement once...

One of the IDOL contestants, Phil Stacy, sang I'M GONNA MAKE YOU LOVE ME. During a taped interview after his rehearsal, Diana said it was a song she did with Marvin Gaye and it brought back a lot of...

In her book, Diana wrote that she enjoyed songs like LOVE CHILD and I'm LIVIN' IN SHAME but for her, they weren't as wonderful as the older HDH songs that were written especially for them, like BABY...

I forgot about that one. I also have a green vinyl promo version of POPS.

I do recall a neighbor of mine having a black and white label map copy of MY GUY.

I thought she did the bootlegs so that she could get some cash for the NY office. So wouldn't she have tried to make them look as legitimate as possible, i.e., with the regular map label?

The one thing that sticks out for me about this series is one of the Supremes cds had many Jimmy Webb tracks on cd for the first time. However, the cd had a cover photo of DMF whereas all of the...

Yes, when I bought the cassingle, I was really surprised to find that it was a totally different version than that on the album. I always wondered what the motive was behind that. But that project...

I believe she did a 1978 engagement at Radio City that featured the show with the movie screen. She probably sang REMEMBER ME then.

If I remember correctly, the version of WAITING IN THE WINGS on the cassingle is the same version that appears on the FOREVER DIANA boxed set, the alternate version with a sax solo by Gerald...

In the US, an alternate version of WAITING IN THE WINGS was released on cassingle.

Also in the US, YOU'RE GONNA LOVE IT was released as a 12", cassette maxi-single, and a cd maxi-single.

Recently Culture Factory released BABY IT'S ME on pink vinyl, THE BOSS has on red vinyl, and diana on clear vinyl (a Barnes and Nobel exclusive).

DIANA EXTENDED was released on white vinyl.
...

A nice fantasy though. :-)

The longer this pandemic lasts, I suspect we'll see some artists connecting with their fans in ways they wouldn't have even considered two years ago. Some more creative...

I have a promo album for LADY SINGS THE BLUES, with a script for a dj to insert himself in to ask Diana questions. But I don't think it has any songs on it and it might have been released by...

I remember there being slight differences in versions of this program. I know I ended up with at least two of this one.

When I saw her in April 1979, she sang the THEME FROM MAHOGANY as a stand-alone. That was the only time I ever saw her perform it that way in concert.
