'In Full Bloom' question.

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

Trump Is Officially Elected Chairman of KENNEDY CENTER

Trump Is Officially Elected Chairman of KENNEDY CENTER

Historically, the board has been made up of an equal number of Democrats and Republicans. There is now a whole new board. The new board is made up entirely of Trump appointees—including Trump's chief of staff, Susie Wiles and Usha Vance, the wife of Vice President JD Vance. There are 14 new members, with 31 total members.

I wonder how much this will change the Kennedy Center Honors. Mr. Trump has never attended the honors in his first term even though all other recent Presidents attended. I wonder if he plans to attend now that he has control of the place and what kind of nominees will be chosen to be honored.

I guess he has extra time on his hands with President Musk now running the country ;)

The Prime of Shorty Long SS 719.

I`m a big Shorty Long fan and loved "Here Comes The Judge" but I had trouble enjoying "The Prime Of". It just didn`t hit me like the "Judge" I found it a bit of a drag because of the 2 openers "I Had A Dream" and "A Whiter Shade Of Pale".It brightens up after those two and I loved the rest.
I decided to burn a new copy opening with "I`m Walkin`", "Memories Are Made Of This" and then "I Had A Dream" which really stood out as the classy song it is. I buried "A Whiter Shade Of Pale" second to last.
I wonder any of you had the same experience accessing this now great album. Could the original line up contributed to it`s poor sales. Any views?

Question on Marvelettes - Vols. 1/2 - Forever/Forever More

A question that someone might know the answer to. As most Marvelettes fans know, there are 2 volumes released by Hip O Select highlighting the Complete Motown Albums.

Does anyone have any knowledge of how many of each of the two volumes were pressed when they were released?

I know that pressing quantities are probably privileged information but maybe someone might have the answer.

I do know for a fact that the Complete Motown Singles volumes have released the number that were manufactured which gives one the insight into the scarcity of each one but what about all the Hip O Select releases?

Thanks.

Fanita James of The Blossoms

Some time ago I saw a clip of her performing solo on Shindig. Can't recall the song; however, does anyone know of this performance?

Jean King, the other Blossom, had a couple of solo spots on Shindig that I could find.

Thanks!
