As discussed these things can be very subjective but this one is downright laughable, having Mariah Carey at number 57, Barbra Streisand in the 80s and Dolly Parton in the 90s, with a bunch of people...
As a long time Jeopardy fan I can tell you that the Supremes (and Motown in general for that matter) have been featured quite a bit over the years. Remember the Berry Gordy spelling controversy from...
I don't know how these things work but it would seem crazy to abandon it at such a late point in time. Surely SOMETHING could be done so that it could be released, even if it required a further...
January 8th was supposed to be the delayed release date for the two-CD best of collection but my two primary websites make it sound as if it may have bitten the dust. Does anyone know anything?
Since I have never heard of the vast majority of these artists, I will not be interested in this release, but I am excited nevertheless to hear that the CD era will continue on in to 2021.
Girlfriend's still got it!!!
It has been well-publicized that Dionne Warwick is planning a big bash for her 80th birthday Saturday, as well she should. So best wishes to our favorite lady of song.
But also worth mentioning is...
Nice clip. Mickey sounds like a nice fun loving guy.
I too liked Splanky's post. If an artist has true confidence in their talent and their style, then they should sing and record whatever they want and let others do the same and the public will decide...
I would LOVE to see this album released on CD, not for this song but because Neil did a rocking version of Stagger Lee.
I always considered Marvin and Tammi's original to be among the best of their hit singles. Aretha did an OK version of it, but I don't think M and T could be beat on that particular song.
The current edition of Goldmine magazine contains an interview with Dionne. It has a few factual errors in it which might make some fans cringe, but overall it is a nice chat with her.
Who who who????? Give us some hints!
Mine just arrived today. Hope this label will keep these collections coming. I have five or six of them already.
Had never seen this before. Neat!
Nope but since I have a whole day of sports-watching ahead of me, I will go ahead and reveal the answer here early in the day.
Drum roll please........
I was referring to Neil's song...
Here is a hint for this Thanksgiving Day (hope everyone has a great one by the way) and then if necessary, I will give the answer tomorrow........
....Think of one of the many ladies in Neil's...
Good guess but not what I had in mind.
Nope. The item in question is something that to the best of my knowledge ONLY the two of them share in common. Think Bobbie's biggest hit and one of Neil's lesser ones.
I was playing a new Neil Diamond collection today (courtesy of that recent Amazon sale) and an interesting trivia question popped into my head. I promise I will not drag it out and if no one guesses,...
I did the same thing...fast forwarded and as you said, there was nothing to salute artists that passed away. Good thing we do such a good job of that on here.
Since the subject of the AMAs has come up I have two questions.......1) What in the world happened to Th Weeknd or however he spells it? and 2) Was there an In Memoriam segment like the Oscars and...
I cannot answer your question but that is THE song that turned me on to Smokey as I was first becoming acquainted with Motown. I also loved More More More of Your Love from that same album.
I have always been intrigued by this song from the "In Full Bloom" album. First of all it is so radically different from anything else they ever did. The high pitched background vocal is something...
