I don’t think it was a question of like. I also don’t think beautiful could take her very far.

I think it was about business and there were no hits from Mary herself and as Mary said, the albums from the 70’s Supremes didn’t sell well. It was a downward trend after Stoned Love. No record company will continue to throw money after something that isn’t working out. And Mary and Pedro were their own worst enemies.

Mary should have focused and did what Otis and Duke did to keep their groups alive. People dislike Otis a lot but he lasted.
