She’s been working on the follow up FOREVER!
While we’re at it, I’d love to hear the shelved album, allegedly entitled “Black Marilyn “.
Loved seeing Merry in this interview! She sounds incredible and her new album is wonderful!
I absolutely love this new album!
I must admit I’m a bit surprised they didn’t record “Imagine”… I know it’s been done to death, but it seems like it would have hit here musically and...
Those bonus tracks are excellent! Unfortunately the rest of the album is still rather nondescript after all these years...
I'm curious, how did Carol Kaye destroy the Wrecking Crew story? I've never seen it, so I'd love to know more!
For what it's worth, I really enjoyed the mini-series, BUT I feel it could have used...
Shirley debuted at #5 in the British charts with her new album! Pretty impressive for an 83-year old Dame!
I also love that album!
Hearing Shirley sing the Queen song makes me wish she’d reconsider this being her final album and record a Queen/Freddie Mercury songbook album.
Also after all these years of recording, it’s a...
Thanks for the information!
Do you know if Diana finished work on the new album? Or if it is still ongoing? [[Happy belated birthday, btw!)
Well those boxes that Soul Music does [[mostly WEA recordings) for Esther, Carla, and Barbara Lewis are fairly inexpensive. Surely a Melba box like that can be as financially viable as Barbara Lewis!
That’s a great interview! Thanks for sharing the link!
I would love those Mercury albums to be reissued! I think they could probably do a box with her Buddah albums since they are [[I think) both owned by Universal. However all of those masters may have...
Love this tune! Joy is channeling Miss Ross, while BJ The Chicago Kid does Smokey proud with his sweet vocals...
I love this album! Her vocals remind me of Jean Terrell! It would have been nice to include Joy’s name in the thread title — I was ready to start a thread about this awesome album!
It was really great to watch this episode a few weeks back, and so shocking to read about her passing shortly thereafter...
I must admit I was disappointed that they didn't talk about her brief...
I thought Craft did an excellent job with this box... I wondered if any of the original albums had printed inner sleeves. I looked on Discogs and none of the originals seemed to have inner sleeves...
Listening to an “advance download” of this and it’s excellent! Much more in line with her debut album, than the more “contemporary R&B” of the sophomore album.
Look for her version of Sade’s...
Happy that Tracee is going to be singing — she has a great voice! The preview looks fun!
I’m just curious, outside of here in the “real world” Is there really much of a demand for this?
It’s surprising that Shirley has never recorded a Christmas album...
Just curious if Bonnie has ever talked about her feelings towards the success the Pointers had after her departure?
Her solo career was a disappointment after a promising start with her first...
At this point, I hope she passes on Nile. His last album with “Chic” was disappointing to say the least and the song originally written for Diana in 1983 [[and sung by Elton and Emeli Sande on the...
I really wish she’d record the whole album with one producer, Mark Ronson.
Provided all the material is already selected, the time frame described by bluebrock [[She began working on the album last...
It is disappointing that they’ve never made this into a deluxe reissue to include the “Blue” LP.
