Mark's Diana Ross Web Site wants to hear from you!!
Diana Ross "Fan Corner" coming soon
to Mark's Diana Ross Web Site??
Personal Message from Mark about this possible new feature:
Hi everyone! I
have an idea that I would like to share with you. Here it is.
So often I receive emails from Diana Ross fans from all over the
world thanking me for running the site, and they always tell me so
many great stories regarding their memories of Diana Ross' songs,
concerts, TV appearances, etc. I think you get the picture.
I always appreciate these kind emails, and I thank you for all of
your support over the last 5 years with this site. (Wow, I
can't believe that it has been 5 years already! Where does the
time go??) It has certainly been a work in progress, and it
has been really fun being able to bring you information on
Diana Ross! I try to keep it updated on a regular basis for
you. I, like so many
of you, became a fan of Diana Ross as a little kid, and her music
and concerts have brought me so much joy and happiness over the
years! I started this site
as a tribute to Miss Ross, as a way to share some of this joy with
the fans,
educate people that might just be learning about Diana Ross, and to
just have
fun with it. It has been a rewarding experience running this
site, and I hope
that you continue to enjoy it each time you visit.
After reading all of
your emails, I often think, wow, I am sure that so many of
the fans would love to hear some of your stories and reflections.
I have been
thinking of a way to incorporate you into the process of this site
for a long time now, and I came up with the idea of a "Fan
Corner". If I decide on doing this
and enough people want to be a part of this, it would be a new
feature added to this site. I would like to post your
reflections, memories, photos, or whatever
you would like to share with other fans. I am not looking for
long letters. A few lines or a small paragraph would be fine.
You could address it to me, other fans, or even Diana Ross.
You might want to share where you were the first time you heard your
favorite Diana Ross or Supremes song, a memory of a great concert,
a TV special, etc. I want this to be fun, and I thought that
other Diana Ross fans might be interested in hearing your stories.
If you are interested in being a part of this, please let me know
via email (my address is at the bottom of the page).
I would really like to hear from some of you, and please
keep those wonderful emails coming in!!
Here are a few basic
rules regarding your participation in the Fan Corner:
1. You must be over the
age of 18 to participate in this feature.
2. Your comments may be
edited for grammar or length.
3. I reserve the right to
pick and choose what I will post on this site, and
only positive things about Diana Ross will be posted here. If
you
have negative things to say, your messages will not be posted.
I also
reserve the right for the length of time that your messages will be
posted.
4. You must include your
name and where you are from (City & State or Country) to be posted
with your message. Your mailing addresses, email addresses,
and phone numbers may not be submitted and will not be posted
with your messages if they are submitted.
Again, I want this to
be fun and something that will be an enjoyable
experience for you and the fans. If you are interested in
participating in this feature, please let me know.
Thank you,
Mark

DIANA - Queen of Motown
A new book about Diana Ross By Ian Phillips
Diana - Queen of Motown,
takes a look at Diana Ross' musical and
acting career in full. The book hosts entertaining, honest and
informative reviews on all of Diana Ross albums (including all
her albums with The Supremes), and her five feature films. It
traces her career way back to 1959 when Ross started out as the
fourth member of The Primettes. Each album review looks at each
track in detail, and where possible, includes behind the scenes
information, and the creative process behind each album. There
are numerous quotes from Diana Ross herself, as well as artists,
songwriters, and producers such as Marvin Gaye, Lamont Dozier,
Michael Jackson, Nickolas Ashford, Valerie Simpson, and many
more.
The book also contains reviews and information on her five
films, including numerous quotes from Diana Ross herself, and
the many people that have worked with her such as Billy Dee
Williams, Sidney Lumet, Jay Weston and Brandy. As well as
personal critiques, it offers numerous background information.
This is a positive career retrospective of Diana Ross' 40+ year
career. Seldom has any book put in such a comprehensive and
critical assessment on her many albums, ranging from the recent
I Love You, to Red Hot Rhythm And Blues, to Eaten Alive, to
Surrender, to The Boss etc. This is the perfect book for the fan
and the general music lover, providing a great source of
entertaining reference.
As well as her albums, and films, the book also takes an
entertaining, fun look at Diana Ross the entertainer, reviewing
her recent I Love You Tour.
