Since we’re on the topic of setlists, does anyone know how the songs they were performing by the time they did their Farewell concert album were introduced into the sets? When did they get rid of...
According to dannyboy’s link, they did perform “No Matter What Sign You Are” at the Waldorf Astoria engagements in May ‘69.
I recall an interview where Gladys made the comment that Wyanetta contributed to the group by singing the low end of the harmonies and that if you listen carefully you can hear her voice on the early...
Speaking of ‘A Need For Love,’ does anyone know who the prominent voice in the background is? Is it Georgeanna or Katherine? Or neither?
I would be interested in hearing which track from each of those albums you don’t like, gman.
Wish there was a live recording of “You’re The One.” I wonder if they ever performed it live since it wasn’t a hit.
Absolutely love “You’re The One.” With the clever lyrics, amazing vocal from Wanda, etc., I can’t believe it wasn’t a bigger hit! And yes, I’ve been listening and have had it in my head since reading...
Is there a video of “In and Out of Love” and “Forever Came Today” from RTL? I saw RTL in Ohio but they didn’t sing either one of these there.
Diana Ross[[1970). I can’t believe “These Things Will Keep Me Loving You” wasn’t a single. I love her version and I feel like it could have been a hit!
I thought the interview was great! Mary talks about things I’ve not heard her address before. It’s not the same old interview where she has to answer the same questions and tell the same stories...
I first saw the Supremes in 1967 singing “The Happening” on the Ed Sullivan Show. But then I saw them singing “Reflections” on Hollywood Palace and “In and Out of Love on ES and was awed by Mary...
Well said, RanRan. And thank you for posting “Baby Don’t Go.” Love this song!
I don’t think I can listen to this song right now but it may very well be my favorite Mary Wilson song! I think she sounds great on this song as well as on her other leads on the HE album. I can...
What were those 1969 shows like? Were they much like the Talk of the Town show or more like the Farewell show? Which of their hits were they singing then?
Does anyone know if they ever performed...
Waitingwatching , Sounds like an interesting article. I think that’s very true about the orchestrated songs and the lyrics.
I agree. Great cover!
I saw RTL in Columbus OH. Lynda performed “Up the Ladder to the Roof” and Scherrie sang “Stoned Love.”
Love this album! Waitingwatching, that’s an interesting observation about Stevenson and Hunter. I never realized it. Does anyone know which other songs on In Full Bloom feature actual Marvelettes in...
Awesome, marybrewster!
Another great Marvelettes song! I love every song on the pink album. While many albums have filler songs that are okay or not even that great, I think every track on this album is superb.
Great clip! Love this song. I just wish we had more live recordings/ videos of the Marvelettes!
Sharpmoves and westgrandboulevard- Thanks for the details! I can’t remember nearly as much from concerts I attended that long ago. Sounds like it was a great concert.
I always wondered this too, so thanks to George for his response. Does anyone know if there were any other songs the group did live in ‘68 or ‘69 that weren’t on either of the live albums, Talk of...
I really loved their performances of some of these songs on the Rodgers and Hart special. If I recall, you can really hear Flo prominently on certain of the songs.
Does either of you remember any other songs or the setlist performed at that show?
