    This was a time in Cindy's life where she was financially strained so buying a new dress probably wasn't in her expenses. And for a event of this magnitude she probably didn't have something that was...

    Has anyone ever confirmed where this supposed dress code came from? I've heard it mentioned several times, but no one has ever said who came up with it. Was this something one of the producers said?...

    Yes, she wore the black dress that she wore on The Black Stage when she performed "You Danced My Heart Around The Stars." Cindy wore a simple black dress too. I always thought the white dress she...

    Plus for a least a solid decade after The Supremes disbanded, she continued to wear Supremes gowns and even had her background singers wear them too. Sometimes all three would match like in the photo...

    I can't remember where I heard/read it, but Diana was a bit uneasy about participating because so many from the old Motown days would be there and she knew many of them were not particularly fond of...

    This part of the story has always been unclear and it's never been written/discussed other than Suzanne explaining in the Making Of video.

    I think there is a mistake on DFTMC for this. The track was cut in Detroit with the Funk Brothers on June 13, 1969 and I believe it was intended for Junior Walker. All of the other recording info is...

    I will never understand why Mary for the longest time included her background singers in her publicity photos. Even well into the early 2000s she had them included. It was a big mistake on her part...

    It's only the Supremes on Sam Cooke. The Andantes were added to several tracks on Country Western & Pop like "Baby Doll," but not every track.

    It is just Mary and Flo on "Shake."

    "Whisper You Love Me Boy" is a double tracked background - two sets of vocals from Mary and Flo which is making it sound like there are other voices.

    This is what I don't get about Gordy. He loved "Love Child," but apparently hated "Stoned Love." One is a song about a girl born out of wedlock afraid of repeating the same mistake and the other is...

    "If You Let Me" is a standout track for me that could have done really well as a single, but I doubt Motown would have released a single with Lawrence on lead.

    Yes! Her vocal isn't bad on the single, just too laid back for the track. But when they did the song on Soul Train and then the Bob Hope Special - WOAH! Jean soars. I would love to hear the mix they...

    I would assume by this point she at least had to have had a clue into what Gordy wanted and in her effort to please him so much she went along, but it wouldn't surprise me if she gave him ideas. I'm...

    Honestly, I couldn't name you one film he was in. Regardless if the films were big hits, he's not remembered for them. And his worth came from his parents - I highly doubt he built it up on his own.

    Evan sounds like just about every other guy out there today trying to make a break in the industry. He doesn't have that uniqueness to his voice that set his mother apart from the crowd.
