About Cindy Birdsong......

Cindy Birdsong's affiliation with Patti LaBelle & the Bluebelles ended when Berry Gordy offered her a deal to replace Florence Ballard as a member of The Supremes in 1967. After spending some time as Ballard's stand-in (Ballard and Birdsong superficially resembled one another), Birdsong officially joined Diana Ross & The Supremes, as the group renamed itself immediately prior to her joining, in July 1967.

For her first two and a half years as a Supreme, listeners did not hear Birdsong's voice on most of The Supremes' newest singles. Except for featured backgrounds on several collaborations with The Temptations, live album tracks, and some studio LP tracks, Birdsong and fellow member Mary Wilson did not sing backing vocals on the group's later singles. (Florence's voice was featured on the Reflections album along with Birdsong's, while The Andantes were substituted for Mary and Cindy on many, although not on all, cuts in subsequent Diana Ross & The Supremes albums.) However, Cindy can be heard doing a brief solo during "Let The Sunshine In" on their Farewell performance.

Diana Ross left the Supremes for a solo career in 1970, at which point Jean Terrelll was brought in as the new lead singer. In the new group, both Mary and Cindy's voices were heard more prominently, including the three albums the group recorded with the Four Tops. The same year, Birdsong got married to Charles Hewlett. Birdsong continued to perform with the Supremes until 1971, when she became pregnant with her son, David. Birdsong officially left the Supremes in April 1972, after completing the sessions for the Floy Joy album.
