Ann Bogan on Lead
« on: August 07, 2026, 06:21:28 pm »
Just a couple in memory of Ann. RIP. Only Juanita Cowart-Motley remains. See In Memoriam.

Such a shame that Ann did not have more leads, such a soulful voice.

The two Motown tracks I associate most with Ann Bogan singing lead are ...

The Marvelettes - "I'm Gonna Hold On As Long As I Can" ...



And The Andantes - "Like A Nightmare" ...



Any more?

And isn't it deliciously ironic that the one and only 45 issued by Motown on The Andantes (who often appeared on other peoples Motown recordings without being credited) didn't feature an Andante singing lead!!

From 'In Full Bloom' my fav Motown album. 'Everybody Knows (But You).

From 'COM 5'. Ann solo. 'Hold Me Oh My Darling' & 'There Are Things' also on ACE compilations.

I think that's them all Motown wise. I have an unreleased track credited to Ann called 'Over Again' but it may not be her!

From Love Peace & Happiness - 'Love Is Stronger' & 'Here 'Tis'

The whole 'Love Is Stronger' Album'

Ann takes lead on a few tracks, what an amazing voice.

The whole album 'Here 'Tis'

Ann is on fire on several leads. BTW track 3 has got nothing to do with the album which only has 8 tracks.
