    Even after all these years, Joan Rivers is the best interviewer on a talk show. She is just like us, she is a fan. And I’m glad that she kept pushing regarding the injustice and the greed of Motown Inc.

    This is what you would call "reality". Listening to Ms Ray, Ms Mary and Bobby is something special, they all have their own personal views as having been a part of that magical, once in a lifetime era. Despite all that, the two artists speak highly of the vision while Ms Ray remained overtly bitter as does Bobby. Marv sounds like a very proud and self made, unapologetic man. Great, great segment.

    Great: very interesting interviews. Mary just so beautiful and always interesting to listen to.
    Really glad that Ian Levine got a deserved mention near the end....but I did notice that Mary didn't join in with that part of the conversation despite (or maybe *because* of) her history with him, even though he wrote and produced "Don't Get Mad, Get Even" @ 8:10 and produced "Oooh Child" @ 8:32 .....in fact, she kept very quiet about him indeed! hmmmmmmmmm

    Berry didn't look out for them, that's the way it looks, like what Gil Scott-Heron said "when
    it comes to people's safety, money wins out all the time".

      @scanspeak00 Рік тому +1

      I've read all their books, DIanes, Marys, Berrys, Marthas, and Raymona Singletons. They all made their fortunes, the only problem was some of them didnt know how to hold onto it, or blew it on drugs and alcohol. It wasnt Berrys job to be their father. As Berry once said, making people successful is a thankless task.

    At least #BerryGordy and/or #Motown paid for #MaryWell's funeral ...I am sure it was a tax right off, her funeral that is. He done a lot of those stars bad but in the end he did some decent things like her funeral payment and #EddieKendricks back childsupport payment...it is what it is

    Joan Rivers should have done her homework for this show- she referred to Gladys Horton " of the Marvels" instead of the " Marvelettes" after the break. Anyone can make a mistake but she was old enough to know The Marvelettes.
