In any case, he didn't do very well, because he's very much forgotten.
Her entrance was magnificent, electric
All of you
you are everything
just say
stop look listen
ease on down the road
endless love
That poor old forgotten singer, that young people don't know, made bad decisions, has poor artistic value, is on the new Saint Laurent campaign.
That must be a mistake
Now and then?
I remember interview, or maybe her bio, where Diana says that early on, there were articles where their names [[Wilson, Ballard, Birdsong) weren't mentioned.
It seems to me that...
in the sixties alone, from Billboard : LP weeks on charts inside the top20
Streisand : 5 weeks #1 + 63 weeks [[#2,5) + 73 weeks [[#6,10) + 91 weeks [[#11, 20)
Supremes : 8 weeks #1 + 46 weeks...
He counts on his obsessive passion for charts and his knowledge on the matter to rationalise sales.
Those projections are plausible.
I did a Billboard tally years ago.
About LP's charts in the...
No, but simply because that's what it looks like.
I prefer EA to "Baby It's me" or a lot of her most stylised vocals from the seventies
This section should be renamed "the unreconstructed Motown fan forum".
Eaten Alive was a great album and still is. It has aged very well
Diana is also mentioned because of Barry Gibb in Barbra Streisand memoir "My Name is Barbra"
I used to read the same about Diana in the seventies and eighties amd maybe even before with the Supremes.
Most of reviews were made by critics with POP/ROCK tastes and values.
With Perry producing, we would have a less syrupy production and a more straightforward performance without excessive affectation.
The 82 article mentioned that she actually had recorded her duet with Julio. In fact she recorded her part in NY.
That's probably why she had So Close remixed by Richard Perry around the same...
Thanks.
I'v just noticed that the single mix is different from the LP with her vocals more up front.
2 questions about the song.
1/ does she sing "nothing lasts forever" or "nothing less forever"?
2/ do we know who sings with her for the last part of the song. I don't recognise Daryl Hall...

"All of you" is doing well. Deserved
to me it could be seventies live "love boat", or the Osmond Brothers.
the lyrics or the orchestrations?
It started before RCA, but not that long before, but I find her interpreter abilities more effective when she started choosing her own songs, no matter if they were good or bad.
- Summertime,...
- The whole "Ross" album because it's her first digital recording for the "clean" aesthetic of the eighties.
- "All of you" with max of reverb
- "Swept away"
- "telephone" was very new in...
