What happened with Tabitha King. She was a good fit from all the clips I've seen
I guess I'm in the minority here, I think Jean would have handled the Scherrie songs very well. The Supreme sound was changing I could hear Jean rocking I'm Let My Hear Do The Walking she was...
They were on most of Rick James recordings, Hi Inergy, Jean Carne, Mary Jane Girls those are the first that come to mind and plenty of others I'm sure.
I think the water may have the Andantes because their recording history lasted much longer than the Andantes plus the Waters sang on a lot Motown recordings as well.
Is there a picture of the ladies in that uni gown?
Yes I have 2 or 3 times and each performance was flawless. Mary was a good singer better than most give her credit for. Parnell told me the the real problem with Mary is she played it safe vocally...
I've seen Mary many, many times. The 1st being at the Roxy [[great show) with Robin Alexander and Kaaren Hagland and the 2nd was at the Roxy with Hagland and Linda Evans. The next time would be in...
Mary had to use her calling card for lucrative bookings so she had to use the Supremes. It's funny to me how Mary always get flack for using the Supremes when every last Supreme use it unless they...
On this same project there's a version of I'm Gonna Let My Heart Do The Walking by High Inergy
I can see your point regarding Mary & Cindy's dynamic. If you listen to her 1st gig at the Hollywood Bowl Cindy was pretty strong vocally to be a stand in and then poof she was barley audible but...
I just listen to the Supremes Shubert show from 1975 and did the Supremes do their dream sequence before Diana?
The recording sounds a bit dated but when Mary performed it live during her concerts, One Night With You didn't sound dated at all during that time period. I saw Mary in Vegas as the headliner of a...
I believe that was the real problem, [[undercutting her European bookings).
And on top of that have you ever heard Rag sing a lead? I have and she SUCKS!!!!
I'm with you I think the audience was just happy someone else was singing instead of Diana for once. I'm so tired of hearing that Mary's voice was not commercial enough to sing lead. Had she...
Where was Otis voice placed in the harmony?
What outtake from this collection? What's the name of it and has anyone heard it?
I might get dogged for this but I prefer Mary singing most of the Supreme songs than Scherrie. Scherrie imo did too much vocally with those songs
I always felt with Mary during her solo years when she was on TV singing live she felt she had to KILL IT [[the performance) in a short amount of time because she had 90 minutes a lot more time to...
I could hit that note well into my 40's. Now I can hit the note under that. I made a tape back in the day doing the background parts to Love Child back in the day singing just 2 parts came out petty...
Love your story on Cindy's David. I've seen Cindy twice. Once at a mall in Los Angeles she was hosting an event and then when the 70's ladies did an autograph signing at the Arclight. I felt the most...
While listening to DR solo version is it me or do the backing vocals sound like Mary & Cindy? The original sound like 3 voices the DR solo sound like two voices. I prefer the original
He didn't mention EnVouge where all they ladies sang lead. They initially hit with Terry's intro and Cindy's full lead on Hold On but the 2nd single "Lies" had all the ladies with a part. The 2nd...
