THE SUPREMES PERFORM MY FAVORITE SINGLE IN 1977.......AND IT'S ALL OVER THE PLACE!

Another VHS transfer.......

I don't know if Scherrie Payne, Mary Wilson and Susaye Greene were performing their final U.S. single "Let Yourself Go" with the house band on I think Merv Griffin's show in 1977, or their own band, but either way, it was obviously UNDER-rehearsed and together it's all over the place.  You have three lead singers competing onstage for the lead and singing in unison, when it should have just been Scherrie singing the verse, like on the recording.  Not to mention all this choreography on one of their fastest singles ever.  

And what's up with all those vocal histrionics, Miss Greene?  We know you're talented, calm it down a little! LOL

By their "Final Farewell" show not too long after this "performance", the girls and the band had it worked out much better.
