Whatever Miss TWTR, The only thing belonging to Miss Mary is an Old Crack Pipe, A Legacy of Ooh's & Ahh's sung behind the backs of Talented Artists, Like Jean & Diana & One Fucked Up Geriatric Cuban Tranny Stewardess Fan, Not much of a Legend there, But she does have that "Lovely Daughter", The 400Lb Unemployed, High School Drop out, stay @ home Turkessa!, I think I'd rather have Rhonda for a Daughter
TheReturnOfBigBear DIANE ROSS deserves no compliments just a reminder of her BACKSTABBING of The Supremes and of her ADULTERY to first husband Robert Silberstein who while she was married to him her first daughter Rhonnda Silberstein Gordy Ross Kendricks turn out to be her & Berry Gordy's (HER PIMP / SEX FOR STARDOM "THE BOSS") BASTARD CHILD!
I often wonder if the Supremes HAD received the backing of Berry with such a fantastic lead as Jean was, where they would have gone. How many of you know that the Supremes charted a number one hit ala Jean Terrell before Diana charted. This presented problems for Motown and the decline began. Jean did not want to sign another contract with Motown because she knew she was great and there was no backing for them. They originally had decided to leave "en masse" but at the last minute Mary would not
Wow, Jean cooked on this cut! And you can tell it's really Mary & Cindy: because they always sound a helluva lot better and realer than The Andantes! This song had lyrics and licks that made Jean annunciate and wrap her distinctive vocals around them in a very sexy, sophisticated Supreme way. Thank you for this!
@max9607 The once unreleased "Promises Kept" it is now available in a Hip-O-Select compilation title "The Supremes This Is The Story The 70's Albums, Vo1 1970-1973 The Jean Terrell Years" "Vol.2 The Scherrie Payne Years" is to be release late 2010! A most have to any Supremes lover, specially if you like the mostly under rated 1970's line up that reclaimed the FEMALE TRIO format instead of the DOG & PONY SHOW of LEAD & BACKUP SINGER OF DIANA ROSS & THE SUPREMES!
@max9607 You and both, Vol.1 is fantastic, it includes the following albums, "Right On" "New Ways But Love Stays" "Touch" "The Supremes Produce & Arranged By Jimmy Webb" "Floy Joy" and the sessions of "Promises Kept" The Vol.2, the Scherie Payne years promises to be pact with the punch that little dynamo is! One thing I've ask is to please release Vol.3 The Mary Wilson Alternative Versions!
@TWTR4EVER You can never Pay a Compliment to Anyone, without dishing out an Insult to Diana Ross, This is why you have No Credability & People think you're an Ass Hole
Could that be you and your Diane Ross INFESTED mind playing little TRANNY tricks on you fool?
GET OVER YOURSELF, the "gig" is up!
Diane is going to retire soon, but the legacy will always belong to THE SUPREMES, MS.MARY WILSON , made sure of that, "not" Diana Ross and The Supremes, no dog & pony show needed, only THE SUPREMES, while Diane's "solo" legacy is forever embedded in the scandal of her own creation THE SUPREMES still shine!
@JonathanLGardner ..And to think, This song wasn't 'done'! Jean had Not gone in for the final vocals. This was just a demo for her to get her 'feel' of it! IMAGINE what she would've DONE to it once she got her feel of it! For THIS is AWESOME! Many of the songs were like this.... But they are awesome to HEAR ANYway! These girls were 'HOT'!!!!!!!!
@stage7 Buddy, you're so right, Jean Terrell made every song she recorded her own, there's a very interesting recording "overlap" by both Jean Terrell & Diane Ross of Laura Nyro's "Time And Love" here in YouTube, both versions are recorded over the same music track so as the musical arrangements are almost identical when both voices are put on top of each other Jean makes Diane sound like what she truly was, A HIGH PITCH BACKGROUND SINGER!
