To what degree they have been involved I have no idea but I'm sure they are aware of Cindy's situation.
Given that Diana and Patti have become friendly in recent years, most likely they've...
I guess we were sharing a brain. :D
I think it might be one of the photos projected at the party where Diana pulls off her wig and grabs the candle, letting the wax drip on her.
Probably 1974 or 1975. I think it was used in MAHOGANY.
I was a bit confused as well. I know they used to have early influences or something similar as a category. And now they have this Musical Excellence Award which Dionne is receiving this year and...
I thought the husband was Charles and the son was David as well. The last NY Times article identified them as such. I know Cindy referred to her son as "my little boy David" when she appeared on...
A Man Hailed as Cindy Birdsong’s Rescuer Is Accused of Exploiting Her
The son of the former Supreme says in court papers that the man who sought to help his mother after she became incapacitated...
It was a special that aired on [I believe] the Nashville Network in 1999. They gathered stars from the 50s and 60s, put them in a circle, and had them share stories and songs from their careers....
I really liked this performance from the Rock and Roll Graffiti special.

It was Mike Love but he didn't really say anything all that bad. He was rambling and commented on Paul McCartney not attending because he was in some sort of problem with the other guys and Yoko....

The Tempts reunion was done in 1982. And yes, the Tops did resign with Motown after MOTOWN 25. Their first back-to-Motown album was titled BACK WHERE I BELONG and featured a duet with Aretha. I...
She didn't have a Supremes medley in her 1977 special. Instead there was a great montage of Supremes appearances. But she did use the instrumental track of ITCHING for the opening of the special.
...
I attended a concert of Mary's where she did REFLECTIONS, somewhere circa 1994. I think it was her third number after LOVE CHILD and the Rascals GOOD LOVIN'.
REFLECTIONS was the opening song in the Rock and Roll/ Supremes medley she used to do in the early 80s.
I did find a pdf of the 12/26/70 issue of Billboard and on page TA-20, it lists Diana as #1 Female Vocalist in the Top Singles Artist category, with three charted singles. Behind her rounding out the...
Interesting. I much prefer the mix on STANDING OVATION. The mix on A LITTLE KNIGHT MUSIC sounds muddy to me.
One of Dionne's Facebook groups just posted a Cashbox ad from 1970 saying Dionne was Cashbox's Top Female Artist in their Best of 1970 poll. There was also another Cashbox ad that said that she was...
I remember reading that Diana was Billboard's Number One Female Vocalist for 1970 but I can't recall where.
You can't top that moment, IMO.
But I must confess that I was less impressed with the live version I heard them do on the tv show SOUL! It is a good performance but they do it in a lower key than...
The interviewer lied and told Smokey that Diana had discussed it in her book. Previously Smokey mostly denied it, even though he admitted dating her. He just didn't give a timeline. But I guess he...
I've seen they have put a few of these over the past couple of days, including Gladys Knight and the Pips, and the Righteous Brothers. Great to see.
I agree. It doesn't sound like Michael at all. To me, it sounds like they took Jason Weaver's voice from the scene in the Jacksons' mini-series when the family went to see Diana in Vegas and Diana...
Not longer than Mary but Syreeta lasted quite a while at Motown, maybe 15 years or so.
