Today in Rock History, Florence Ballard (Supremes) passed away in 1976.

The ladies of early rock history are so under-rated.

So many amazing artist's - The Temptations, Martha Reeves and the Vandellas, etc.

[Uncle Joe]

The Temptations?

... How can Mary tell me what to do

When she lost her love so true?

And Flo, she don’t know

The boy she loves is a Romeo

I listened once to my friends advice

But it’s not gonna happen twice ...

Ooh! I got him

Back in my arms again

Right by my side

I got him back in my arms again

So satisfied ~ The Supremes ( Diana Ross, Mary Wilson & Florence Ballard ), 1965

[smaller] I always thought these self-referential lines were pretty cool.

Diana Ross is 64 today. [/smaller]

The Temptations?

All of them?

[Uncle Joe]

I didn't know they swung that way.
