Diana Ross & the Supremes Sing and Perform "Funny Girl" (1968) |
Live at London's Talk of the Town is a 1968 live album released by Diana Ross & the Supremes on the Motown label. This performance marked the first time that new member Cindy Birdsong had performed overseas with original Supremes Diana Ross and Mary Wilson, a year after original founding member Florence Ballard was ousted. The group performed a variation of standards, show tunes, and their own classics with British rock stars Mick Jagger and Paul McCartney reportedly in attendance.
