Exactly!!! Dionne, Aretha. Cissy and Whitney Houston. Diana Ross smoked "More" cigarettes back in the '80s and stopped. She also smoked a little in the '60s (Supremes). This is why she still has her voice.

I've seen this dozens of time and each time I have give Patti LaBelle a perfect 10 standing ovation! She's a vocalist's dream in this: perfect pitch, inflection, intonation, timber, vibrato, range, breathe control and sheer "forget the band, my VOICE WILL be the last thing your hear in this song." Stage presence for days. Patti personifizes the song. Nona and Sarah sing well enough to not even miss Cindy Birdsong. And as plastic and corny as a 50's throw-back song about rainbows and Kansas could have come off as preformed in front off an all black audience on a local New York City PBS show (Soul!) whose subject matter at the time was late '60s prison riots and black revolution, Patti and Bluebelle's wow-factor was still undeniable. Go girls!

I went to a jazz festival in Cincy, several yrs ago and Patti was supposed to perform for 20 minutes and she got the crowd so riled up and she was so into it that she performed for over an hr, so they had to bring a limo onto the field at riverfront stadium and they escorted her off the staged but inside the limbo, Patti hit a note that rocked the stadium without a mike on, and as the limo drove her away and out the stadium thousands of fans started running towards the limo shouting Patti Patti, the remaining fans didn't even want to hear the other two artist that was supposed to perform and the jazz festival was over without allowing the other two to perform

I think that her voice got stronger and stronger with each new adventure she had to do; in other words. Pattie has said that she never wanted to go solo, but after she lost her mother, and two of her sisters and Labelle broke up..Pattie would round on the floor and lose her mind and that voice got stronger and stronger, she sang like she wanted to from the heart.
Highly recommended is the LP of Motown songs they did with the Bronx genius Laura Nyro, 'Gonna Take a Miracle' (1971). The title track is a mind blower. The LP is also important for its implicit statements on race relations, feminism and sexual freedom. There is an excellent essay on this LP by 'someone Neal' if I remember correctly which addresses these issues. Nyro was god-mother to Patti's first born.

This is from PBS series 'Soul' from NYC! Nice to see a "clear" version. This was late Patti & the Blue Belles. Revolution was in the air! When Labelle return a few years later, they ditched the 3-girl-3-gown-three-wig routine and were singing hard rock-in-roll from "Over the Rainbow" to "Morning Much Better," & "When the Sun Comes Shining Through." If I recall, Mohammad Ali appeared was on the same episode, explaining his conversion to Islam and why he dodged the Vietnam draft. Classic!

According to Sara Dash and Patti Labelle, Cindy was stolen from the Bluebelles as a result of the dirty work of Diana Ross and Berry Gordy. Diana and Berry knew they needed someone who looked like Florence to replace Florence when she was fired from the Supremes. The Supremes and Patti Labelle and the Bluebelles had shared the stage quite a few times on the touring circuit, so the two groups knew one another as rivals. According to Patti and Sara, they had no idea that Cindy was singing with the Supremes until it was reported in the press that Cindy had subbed for Florence at a Supremes' performance at the Los Angeles Hollywood Bowl. Patti and her lawyers then sued Berry Gordy as Cindy was under contract to Patti Labelle and the Bluebelles. Florence was then rehired temporarily back into the Supremes on a sort of probation until Berry Gordy's lawyers could get Cindy out of her contract with Patti Labelle and the Bluebelles. Patti and Sara expressed their disappointment at Cindy's lack of loyalty to the Bluebelles as they had been singing together for six years by this time. Diana Ross was obviously thrilled that she had put one over on Patti and they had been rivals on the touring circuit for some years.

Cindy quit to join The Supremes after Florence was fired. Actually, she was groomed to be Florence's "stand in" (replacement) before they fired Florence because she bore a striking resemblance to Flo and was stacked like Flo and could fit into her gowns.

Charles Marcus I believe that when the Supremes started having problems with Florence Ballard's drinking, Motown considered Cindy Birdsong as a replacement because she could sing and resembled I read that she was secretly attending performances by the Supremes in order to learn the routines
