Customer Reviews

They Deserve Their Number one Album
Some may wonder why The Supremes deserve a number one album, alongside Elvis, The Beatles, Abba etc. Surely they were never that popular?

Think again! In the '60s they were the most popular American group in America, notching up a dozen pop No 1s. I can't help feeling that sexism and racism plays a part in the downplaying of their role in popular music. These three young black women from Detroit took America and the world by storm. Much is made of tension and trouble in the group. It happens to most groups, but gets overlooked.

Diana Ross's shrill nasal leads over those driven rhythm tracks are instantly recognisable. Mary Wilson and dear departed Florence Ballard provided back-ups for the most succesful period. Even if she was made to stand as much as seventeen feet back from the microphone during recording, Flo could still add some R&B oomph to the vocal mix.

You get Diana Ross' US and UK solo No 1s too. Don't forget that Diana Ross held the record for a solo female, with five solo No 1 pop hits in the US, before Whitney and Mariah re-wrote the rule book. You also get a couple of male duets, and it is good to see the Jean Terrell phase of The Supremes represented by their R&B No 1 from 1970 'Stoned Love'.

One minor quibble with the track list. Where is 'I Hear A Symphony' ? It made No 1 pop in the US at the end of 1965. 'Reflections', which is included, only made No 2, and was not No 1 R&B or in the UK. I will admit that 'Reflections' is a better song than '...Symphony' and was bigger internationally, but it goes against the grain a bit.

This album enjoyed a bit of a sales bounce following the success of 'Dreamgirls', a film based loosely around The Supremes story. I think everyone should get a copy.

Great songs but very bad quality
I would give this collection of songs five stars but what happened with the sound quality of these recordings? The UK version of this CD uses other mixes than the US version. The sound quality on the UK version is very bad (listen to "Stoned Love", for example). So if you want this CD, get the US version!

Historic and Classic
Diana Ross and the Supremes are the ultimate girl group. There were 2 girls and one superstar diva. The 3 of them rode the wave to the heights of the entertainment world. The music they created and left behind will be with us always.

These songs are how they were originally recorded. Many of the songs were recorded with the live band behind the 3 girls who all shared ONE microphone. It is almost impossible to believe that under those circumstances, these legendary songs were recorded.

The re-mix of You Keep Me Hangin' On is powerful. Heard it in a club recently and the dancefloor was packed with young kids grinding a hole into that floor to the sounds of Diana, Mary, and Flo. It was something to see and hear.
