Showtune Sunday: In honor of Mary Wilson’s 72nd birthday, all about the Supremes doing Broadway
Mary Wilson, the only member of The Supremes to last throughout all the group’s line-up changes over 18 years (from 1959-77) turns 72 today.
Thought I’d use the occasion to highlight some of the showtunes the group performed over the years on The Ed Sullivan Show and in a television special they did with fellow Motown group The Temptations.
This is the late 1960s line-up of Mary, Diana Ross and Cindy Birdsong and I just love the gowns, the wigs, the moves and most of all, the sound.
It really was magic.
