I heard this breaking news at 7.40 am this morning and played two tracks to open my breakfast show at 8 am................finger on pulse (no pun intended) or what ?
My first gig was Supremes (post Diana) at the Dome around about 71
Another taken too soon
Mary seemed such a lovely person too
Gone but not forgotten
RIP Mary
Shocking that she recorded this message just two days before she died. She appears so vibrant and full of life and excited for the future. Really sad. RIP..... https://youtu.be/tGCwWipSEMY
I learned after the event that I had been in the same room as her in Super Bowl week in Detroit in 2006 and had sadly missed my chance to tell her she was one of the most talented and beautiful women in the world. Ah well.
RIP Mary , so glad to have seen her perform live with the Supremes when she at last became lead singer in her own right at The Pavilion Worthing in the 90's
