Sadly it's my guess that the world has moved on. It's difficult to imagine any sizeable audience with the interest in more than a set or two of the gowns. The simple burden of maintaining 3 of...
Have you been listening to the podcast? Wonderful all around and lots of details about 'Living Proof'. And, yes, deserves reissue.
I love, Love, LOVE when a major r&b release gets this kind of rave review in this kind of major news outlet.

Hi, Carlo! There are lots of tangents that can be gotten into regarding this issue. I am in agreement with you as regards preservation. I've always loved the 'Detroit Tudor Vernacular' [[my phrase)...
Interesting cut, MEddie, and I thank you for finding it. I had not heard about the cut. Chaka is extraordinary, and this is certainly a worthy cut for her. Not sure just yet about the 'lower...
So I know this contemporary news can't possibly compete with posts about which other group member coulda-woulda-shoulda been a new Supreme, or which single should have been released 3rd from a...
Follow, as they say, the link -

I love the idea, Ralph, and will send a recommendation soon.
Maintaining the Hitsville house has historic significance. As regards homes of individual group members I can't really get too excited about restoration as a public/private enterprise. If Jackie...
Addendum. Sylvester sounds great and looks gorgeous. 49 years and still listening, Syl!
Wonderful to see. Yet ... heartbreaking. "My" Sylvester deserved better than echo-singing to tracks and announcing hits as 'Do you remember?" But the audience seems enthused. My Sylvester - so well...
Hell YEAH! After 'This Child ...' my second favorite cut on the lp. Do we know if Luther heard Ms. Z's version? This lady. She could both write and interpret a song. Nice to see a bit of remembering...
This gets a rebound every year or so. And: No. McCoo was already a star in 5D so there would be no sense in the idea. Plus. Yeah these many decades later it remains clear: There is, was, and only...
Wonderful!!! I love A&S and did not know of this -
It's quite obvious that the Sussex label had high hopes for Zulema, perhaps as the 'next' Bill Withers. She wasn't able to generate a solo hit for Sussex despite great lps. I would love to hear more...
OOPS! Me, corrected. I forgot that FH,C had a male member. I do thank my fellow members for knowing / remembering more than I! Truly thankful -
Glencro and Lakeside - the first Lizzo lp just didn't reach me but I'm loving this one start-to-finish. Do you hear just a tad of honoring the past of soul & r&b in Lizzo? She's original for sure,...
Sorry for the delay in replying ... as you have already most likely learned yes indeed the first 4 Pointers lps were BT releases, though Steppin' and Having a Party were technically ABC Blue Thumb....
Yes, sounds like a great show! I'm a tad surprised to hear that the Supremes had another female trio as their opening act. I still have my original, gatefold sleeve copy of the first Zulema lp so I...
A pre-order link on Dusty Groove; they are also listing the second Sussex label lp -

Something new[[ish) with a nice retro[[ish) vibe - hard to keep dancing when this one's playing!

I missed out on FBTP shows and really regret it after reading the above comments.
I just read that one - the Times did a great job, didn't they? I like that the obits are highlighting that Hart was also a songwriter -
A nice interview and great showcase for Melba Moore. None of those 3 people have a clue who Melba Moore is and that kinda gives me the creeps ... but, a deserving lady gets deserving credit and I say...
