I suspect that we share similar opinions on Ms Ross...

Ross had the looks, and she was perfectly marketable at that time. I don't think she can be considered a great soul singer.
That said, that summer of “Where Did Our Love Go” has very particular associations with a certain girl for me. And it'll always mean something special because of it. She was crazy about that song.
By the way, I am an inveterate reader, as well as listener. For some time — three or four years, now — the Stuart Cosgrove trilogy has been on my shelves. I came across them and bought them on the spot, because they looked exceedingly interesting. The three tomes are, respectively: Detroit 67 — The Year That Changed Soul; Memphis 68 — The Tragedy of Southern Soul; and finally Harlem 69 — The Future of Soul.
They've received all kinds of praise. Anybody read them, by any chance?
