4.0 out of 5 stars A soulful compilation with some wonderful surprises!, August 10, 1998

This review is from: Soulful Divas, Vol. 1: Pop N Soul Sirens (Audio CD)

Mixing well-known smashes (Warwick, Yuro), lesser known original versions (Bell, Drew) and rarities (Brown, Payne) makes for a lot of "sweet soul mus ic." Martha Reeves never sounded better on "My Man" and "Who Gets Your Love" proves once again that Dusty Springfield is one of pop music's best.

This review is from: Soulful Divas, Vol. 1: Pop N Soul Sirens (Audio CD)

THIS CD IS A RARE GEM. THE STAND OUT TRACK HOWEVER IS BY FLORENCE BALLARD. AFTER HEARING HER WITHOUT THE SUPREMES YOU REALIZE WHY DIANA ROSS NEVER WANTED HER TO SING LEAD. DIANA SHOULD HAVE FEARED FLO..FLO WAS THE FOUNDER OF THE GROUP AND COULD HAVE VERY EASILY BEEN LEAD SINGER. SHE ALSO HAD GREAT RANGE, NOT WHINEY AND THIN
LIKE DIANA. THIS CD IS DEFINATELY A MUST TO OWN...

4.0 out of 5 stars Flo does know, September 14, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Soulful Divas, Vol. 1: Pop N Soul Sirens (Audio CD)

Hearing Florence Ballard sing without Diana Ross' interference makes this disc worth buying. The song may not have been a number one but it is a catchy tune and enjoyable to listen to. This hard to find track is a must have for any Supremes' fan.

Madeline Bell's original version of "I'm Gonna Make You Love Me" is a terrfic song...the Supremes and the Temptations cover version made it all the way to number two on the Billboard charts.

Gladys..Dusty..Betty and Freda's voices on these obscure songs sound sound rich and full.

"I Say A Little Prayer For You" by Ms Warwick is of course a solid hit.
