'In Full Bloom' question.

[lakeside]

Is Wanda the only Marvelette on the 'Full Bloom' album? It sounds heavy on the Addantes.

I don't have any inside information but I would suspect that the Marvelettes were featured at least somewhat. I say that because I have read that Katherine refused to pose for the Return cover because she had not sung on any of the songs. So if she felt that way about that album, she might have felt the same way about In Full Bloom if she were not a part of it. But that is just speculation on my part.

Did this information come for the Forever More CD set? The print is so small on this packages that I can't read much of it

"Andantes".....not Addantes. Maybe I created a new group?

I looked at my Forever More CD package and the only thing I could find is lead singers listed. Yes, that print is small...and getting smaller by the year!

Addantes = "Add The Andantes". No doubt a phrase often heard at Motown recording sessions.

Bingo! I KNEW it! And 'add' they did!
