Thank you for the info, soren! Great photo. This new album sounds promising and I look forward to purchasing it. I'm glad that the ladies are still with us, performing and creating new music.

Looks like it was a CD that was independently released by the artist themselves, as I don't see a Discogs listing for it and I don't see it on Amazon or eBay. Your best bet may be to try and contact...
I do agree that considering Clive's long-time friendship with Whitney, it was an odd thing for him to have proceeded with the event that evening. Everyone deals with grief in different ways and I'm...
Not wanting to get too morbid here, but I'm guessing that it would have taken quite a bit of time for police to complete their due diligence, with investigating and reporting on the scene....
Thommg, I use that feature on Discogs regularly but never even thought of looking up this single. I'm glad you did! :)
Thanks for sharing, thommg! I hadn't seen this pic before.
Remembering Mary with love on her Birthday. I came across this video that I hadn't seen before. The news report features recollections from a couple of female artists that Mary mentored and...
I always thought these gowns were called Custard & Cleavage. ;)
That's why some people listen to the blues. Lol. Diana isn't ever gonna sing the types of songs that Bettye LaVette sings. For the record, I love them both.
I'm surprised that The Marvelettes' When You're Young And In Love has not been mentioned yet, as that's a real traditional drum roll. I've always appreciated the dramatic intro...

Glad she was able to enjoy some family time.
Yes, I agree that it's good to see her kids are all doing well, in the sense that they appear to be happy and healthy [key statement here is 'appear...
Thanks Rob. Just re-posting the dates here, since those images are unreadable on my end [they are microscopically small lol.]

Prior to starting this thread, I had communicated with the individual who put this bootleg CD out and they confirmed it's a stereo mix that was made from the mono mix, using 'cutting edge...
I was just giving a quick example. I wouldn't expect UMG to step up for that either. My point was that it shouldn't be the fans who are expected to give money for this, when many of us already...
I agree with you, Roberta. When we had the initial discussion about her Hollywood Star campaign on the forum last year, her manager had mentioned the two phase fundraiser. The second phase, which...
I agree with you, stingbeelee. It would be a different matter if Martha was paying for this star and the reception out of her own pocket, then I would say she can put her name on it, and her name...
I hope for the same, Ollie. I very much enjoyed Barbra Streisand's autobiography. Knowing that Diana has always been inspired by Barbra, it recently led me to think that perhaps Barbra's...
Thank you for clarifying this, sansradio! I had no idea :)
Luther's first two albums, "Luther" and "This Close To You" will be reissued on vinyl, CD and digital, in April and June respectively.
They can be pre-ordered from the official Luther Vandross...
Here is a listing of the now-defunct Reel Music's releases on Discogs:
https://www.discogs.com/label/163205-Reel-Music
This was indeed a great reissue label, founded by producer Paul Williams....
Giving it a second listen now and you're right...she sounds more like herself in this first take. She is singing in her own natural range, whereas in the released version, they had her singing...
Thanks RanRan. I also remember Flo's masters being listed among the contents that were destroyed in the fire, but I seem to remember reading confirmation from Andy or someone else 'in-the-know' at...
It's my understanding that a stereo mix exists or existed of Flo's solo album for ABC. I remember in the early days of the internet, the Florence Ballard Yahoo Club was selling a fan-made bootleg CD...
Thanks Jack. I saw this one in the RSD UK list yesterday and I'm so curious about it. I wonder if this album is a mix of brand new recordings and previously unreleased recordings from years ago, or...
When I initially saw social media posts about this upcoming box set, there was no info yet on the dvd and I was worried they were going to include the movie as the dvd. Then I thought that the record...
