Diana Ross & The Supremes
Sherrie Payne & Lynda Laurence
--------------
Diana's a friend so you consider me biased, but the Return To Love tour was an amazing tour. Diana was incredible and Lynda and Sherrie were not just background material, they added to the show as well. It was Diana's most improved tour ever. If someone shouted a request, she and the ladies and the band would go off on it. "Somethings You Never Get Used To," for example, is a top forty hit by Diana Ross and the Supremes -- it's not one of their 12 number one hits or one of their big top ten hits but when someone shouted it out, Diana spoke with the band and, boom, they started performing it. Diana was being slammed and attacked in the press, but each night when she went on stage, she just shared the love with the people who loved the music. It was truly a remarkable tour. I caught three performances of that brief tour and all three were amazing.
