I never heard this version until now ((ant)) I don't really like Mary's part though and think Jean should have sung lead  |

Yea, Mary didn't sound too well on it. I really, really like Mary on "Til the Boa Sails Away", however. "Bridge Over" was rereleased on the Jean Terrell box set.

oh my yes! Speaking of high prices, have you grabbed yourself a copy of Maxine Ballard's "bio" on Florence? It's not technically a biography, but what it really does is cuts deep into Florence's life after the Supremes, like how Tommy beat Florence, and all these other interesting stories. It's really a great book and it's worth every penny!!

Mhmm, you said it, honey! The book will make you laugh, cry, and give you a whole new insight on Florence. As Maxine says, your whole view on Flo will be flipped!

I would love to land my hands on a copy of Maxine's book, then for Ben Jamison to get his tapes sorted out so we really get some kind of biography from Flo! Then everything will really be out But back to the subject lol - I like the arrangement on this version of the song but Mary pretty much butchered her parts yet managed to nail the background - how ironic lol |

Completely missed this one  ...I have to admit I really do like Mary's voice and love a few of her solo leads...but I will agree she is sub-par on this one ...  @ 'nailing the background'...can you tell me what year this one was recorded ((Ant))  |

That would be from "New Ways But Love Stays", the first Jean-led album from 1970 !
