the Supremes' "All I Want" connection to the Kennedy Center Honors

[jobucats]

I was thrilled to see Berry Gordy, along with several of my other favorite icons, receive recognition during the Kennedy Center Honors show last night.

The Joni Mitchell segment was awesome, and it was a joy to experience some of her catalogue of songs. Did you know that she wrote "All I Want" which was included on the 'controversial' Jimmy Webb album by the Supremes in 1973?

I love the studio version with Jean on the lead; however I enjoy this live version after Jean had left. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bafHBEoI9hA

The “live" version, with Mary, Cindy and Scherrie, imho, is one of the best performances given by any version of the Supremes. It really gave each member the opportunity to shine.

I agree. It has got to be one of my very favorite live performances, although I think it was performed to a pre-recorded track. There was a discussion here a few years back about how the track was rushed or something. I forget.

As much as I love Jean's voice, I do prefer the multi-lead version by Mary, Scherrie & Cindy a bit more. Mary must have felt some kinship to Joni Mitchell as she sang Both Sides Now in her Up Close shows, too.
