I would like his original recording of "Behind The Mask," I hope it is included.

"Love Hangover" is a classic and a masterpiece.

Shameful. Even moreso when we know it wasn't an oversight.

Ross has a large family and she wants to ensure they live comfortably for a long time. Money is her main motivation just like for the rest of us who get up and go to work. If it were strictly for the...

Agree. Mary certainly highlighted her status as a founding member of the Supremes. She did, and had every right to, capitalize on their enduring image and popularity. I see Sherrie and FLOS as more...

Yes, this has been one of the saddest parts of recent times -- some families have experienced multiple, multi-generational losses in a very short period of time. My go-to for Lashun is "I Trust You"...

LaShun Pace of the Anointed Pace sisters has passed at just 60. LaShun was the best known of the Pace sisters and they were some sangers. Even in the gospel world where there is a wealth of vocal...

Indeed. I love the acknowledgment of Sarah Dash. Nona is such a brilliant writer and Patti such a brilliant singer, it is possible to background Sarah's contributions. But one only need listen to...

It really is a lovely song. Jennifer sounds wonderful, I am glad she is still recording.

Melissa Manchester recorded a live album during her 1977 tour. Then-slated to be released as a double LP on Arista, it was shelved by Clive Davis because that's what he did best -- crushed other...

Yes to Lady Blackbird. A friend sent me a remix of "Collage" in 2020 saying it sounded a little like Chaka Khan and I definitely could hear that. Since then I'd only heard club remixes of her songs...

I think that's right. Obviously, she wanted to rehabilitate the legacies of MJ and Joseph. I see more validity in her instincts toward Joe. Many of us try to understand and contextualize the...

I read that book in 3 days in or about 1990. I was even more enthralled with her after CHMR. I don't remember it being especially unflattering.

Yes! Happy 85th Birthday to Dame Shirley Bassey! I missed her birthday as well. I hope she is healthy and happy and living her best life.

It's a good song and it's Stevie Wonder so very listenable. Still, I really miss Luther's vocals. Yet another reminder of how important background vocals can be, and in particular, Luther's...

Agree. Don't know why photo was cropped but it was inappropriate bordering on disrespectful.

Barbara Roy is Jocelyn Brown's Aunt.

Ross looks FANTASTIC in the video for NOYY.

I am surprised to see Tina's post-"Private Dancer" recordings discussed alongside Ross' RCA years. I think "Break Every Rule" and "Foreign Affair" are excellent albums. Good songs and great...

I read "From These Roots." I was always struck by this passage because she implied she thought her son's adoration of Diana Ross was over-the-top and added that she was relieved when he turned his...

Rodney Kendrick is a very accomplished, and working, musician. Among other career achievements, he is the pianist on Abbey Lincoln's "A Turtle's Dream" CD -- an otherworldly jazz delight from 1996. I...

Another treat from John Morales! Teddy Pendergrass is one of my favorite voices. I already have the M+M Mix of "Don't Leave Me This Way." If the rest of this project gets the same TLC it should be...

I understand sadness associated with her passing. I don't understand what is/was objectionable about a discussion at a board intended to celebrate and memorialize members of the Motown...

RIP to Mr. Lasley, a great songwriter and musician. One of my favorites of his is Chaka Khan's "This Time." I was sure this song would be a hit, it deserved to be.

Good collection, maybe a little heavy on the remixes. I am impressed by the quality and breadth of Incognito's catalog. It is a very solid collection and even still some of its best tracks are...
