I really like:
SOMEDAY WE'LL BE TOGETHER
CAN'T YOU SEE IT'S ME
SHADOWS OF SOCIETY
LOVING YOU IS BETTER THAN EVER
TILL JOHNNY COMES
THE BEGINNING OF THE END
I don't really hear any other...
Programmers might have also reacted to the revised DRAS billing because it happened at the same time as the group lost an original member. Even to non-conspiracy theorists, the timing might be...
I will admit that REFLECTIONS isn't one of favorite albums. It isn't bad but like you wrote, Side 1 is definitely better than Side 2.
That said, the only reason I know that is because I actually...
I don't think there's a connection. Diana had stopped working with Masser in 1980, and Whitney wasn't signed to Arista until maybe 1983 or so. By then, he had already done work with Natalie Cole,...
Thanks for the info.
I think the original plan was to release REFLECTIONS on the GREATEST HITS album but they decided to save it for its own release instead. Of course, they had no idea that the Supremes' record sales...
I would venture that Motown waited too long to release the album.
It might have done better if they had released it in 1967, around the time of the title track or IN AND OUT OF LOVE. But they...
In her second book, Mary wrote that the one bright spot of the bombing day was because of Cindy.
They were waiting to get back into their hotel. Cindy called Mary over to her and said she had...
Diana certainly could have done them well. And she did end up producing IN YOUR ARMS aka HOLD ME for herself.
I would have liked to hear what she would have done with Natalie's SOMEONE THAT I...
There was a short section in J. Randy Taborrelli's last book on Diana where he mentioned that some of her peers haven't acknowledged her accomplishments. He went on to say that when Halle Berry won...
Both seem to be accessible to subscribers only.
Not to my knowledge.
Maxine Ballard's book mentioned Tommy's violence towards Flo. It was also referred to in the AUTOPSY episode dedicated to Flo.
Yes, that's why I said there was probably confusion over categories.
After Andra Day, many tv shows were saying she was the first black actress since Whoopi to win a Best Performance By an Actress...
There probably was confusion over categories, etc.
From what I can find, Diahann Carroll and Gail Fisher won Golden Globes a few years before Diana.
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...
