All the best Legends Slots contain a jam from the almighty pen of the Gibb Bros. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

henry bear Posted October 10, 2019 Report Share Posted October 10, 2019 I wonder how long the negotiations for this have been going on? When he came off stage from his cameo with Coldplay in 2016, Barry Gibb was asked if he’d be doing the Legend slot in 2017 and he said DR was doing it.

CaledonianGonzo Posted October 10, 2019 Report Share Posted October 10, 2019 The shortlist must be really short now, so I assume it's been a few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillyfaddle Posted October 10, 2019 Report Share Posted October 10, 2019 Very happy at this news. Gotta see her. Hope she does a load of old Motown numbers, not just her 1980s solo stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quark Posted October 10, 2019 Report Share Posted October 10, 2019 Recent reviews all seem pretty good. Compilation / clip vid from her time in Vegas earlier this year here. Never been the strongest voice but fuck it she's 75 and sounds alright. Ain't no Mountain around 4:30 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madyaker Posted October 10, 2019 Report Share Posted October 10, 2019 (edited) Well ill definitely be there anyway, I think she sounds pretty good all things considered! Edited October 10, 2019 by Madyaker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Losing my hair Posted October 10, 2019 Report Share Posted October 10, 2019 I'm buzzing about this - Diana Ross is a proper legend - even @stuartbert two hats can't complain about her being described as a legend Tamla Motown was part of the soundtrack to my youth - Friday school discos: Baby Love, Reflections, You Can't Hurry Love, Love Child plus all the later ones - Someday We'll be Together, Chain Reaction, I'm still Waiting - I can't wait for this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilgamesh69 Posted October 10, 2019 Report Share Posted October 10, 2019 Recognized her name but couldn't think of any songs off the top of my head. Put on a playlist and... holy fuck she's incredible? Can't believe how many songs I recognise, she's got hits for days I'm sooo hyped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrislfc Posted October 10, 2019 Report Share Posted October 10, 2019 Glad she's not a 'mimer' although I hope she doesn't do that many costume changes in an hour and 15 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fatyeti24 Posted October 10, 2019 Report Share Posted October 10, 2019 According to wiki, Chain Reaction was a much bigger hit for her in the UK (no.1) than it was in the States (no.66 at the second time of asking). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
