    Thanks for that

    Interesting that they say Where Did Our Love Go was never meant for them

    Lots of hard luck stories here

    It was great seeing this again as I haven't seen it since it was broadcast.

    A question that someone might know the answer to. Larry Marshak ---- is he still in the FAKE Marvelette sponsorship? Haven't heard anything for a long time about him. The less the better by all means.

    I believe it was presented to them first before it was presented to the supremes

    Unsung annoys me because they always try to go to the heartstrings by pulling out the victim card. They try hard to manipulate the viewers by making us feel sorry for the artists. Why doesn’t unsung focus on the successes and achievements? No one is guaranteed an easy life.

    Does Wilson ever say no to an interview?

    Not quite sure they say that - it’s more like, no, no, no, don’t know how that story ever got started

    Thanks posting and made my day seeing that Wanda was included in the program. Without the money created by Postman, Motown's growth would have been much slower. Hopefully the ladies receive some sort of residuals from their 18 hits that made the TOP 40.
    I grew up and went to grade school in Inkster before moving to Detroit. I don't quite get the country stereotype. Granted we didn't have skyscrapers, but Michigan Ave. connected us to the big city via bus or car.
