I think this was one of her earliest performances wherein someone else was in charge of her wardrobe and hair (someone old fashioned). Because in subsequent performances you will find Brenda's clothes and hairstyles being VERY FLY. I mean her hair was LAID !! Her style and fashion was ahead of its time.

Well this was also earlier 1960s. 1965 and on is when the timeless looks started. People still dress in styles and ways that originated in the late 1960s and they don’t even realize.

*Ty Stephens* said 8 months ago; "Dick Clark deserves so much recognition for showcasing and giving such respect to Black artists in such volatile times! Great performance and interview!! Thanks, Dick Clark! RIP." ____ I completely agree. This was in 1964. Only the most well-known Black artists could get on TV until great people like DC came along on TV who were genuinely unbiased when it came to race.

Why does race have to be brought up? Think about it.
@emmettk10 жыл бұрын
srercrcr No, it doesn't "have to" be brought up, but the comment is appropriate as far as discussing some of Dick Clark's contribution to American culture during that era. I reposted the comment because far too many people have no idea how different things were just a few decades ago. Clark was a good human being and there's nothing wrong with informing those who otherwise wouldn't know that. Think about that.

That voice WOW !! She signed with Motown early when Motown first started up. Barry Gordon had his eyes on her, tried to hook her but she rejected this advances. Rumor has it that Barry was crazy about her and she wouda been the 1st lady of Motown but she had a man and got tired of Barry & the Motown rift and jumped ship...went back home to L.A. Years later when Diana came along and Barry chose her as Supremes lead singer, Barry pushed Diana ro study and try to emulate Brenda's vocals.
