Now JR & Alise talkin' about Mary's Roy Ayers joint "Searching." When they talk about the surprise of her doin' it live, I swear their camera look had to be choreographed!
And yes, JR, Mary has had the same setlist for 53 years. 😂

There’s something so bright and happy about Groove Theory’s “Tell Me” that I painfully miss about R&B music. I can’t help but smile and reminisce on the good times when hearing that record.
