Performer: Diana Ross & the Supremes
Distributor: Universal Distribution Notes: Diana Ross & The Supremes: Diana Ross, Florence Ballard, Mary Wilson (vocals). Includes liner notes by Brian Chin. All tracks have been digitally remastered. This is part of MCA's 20th Century Masters: The Millennium Collection series. Every track here except "Reflections" achieved number one pop status. If "Love Is Here and Now You're Gone" had been included, and "Reflections" omitted, the whole CD would be composed of number one pop hits. The omission of "The Happening" (ugh), also a number one hit, was a good one. These 11 songs represent the Supremes', and writers/producers Brian Holland, Lamont Dozier, and Eddie Holland's, best work. Especially endearing are "Where Did Our Love Go," "Come See About Me," "You Can't Hurry Love," "Love Child," and "Someday We'll Be Together," a Johnny Bristol, Jackie Beavers and Harvey Fuqua composition originally recorded by Johnny & Jackie. ~ Andrew Hamilton If you absolutely had to limit a Supremes greatest hits collection to a mere 11 tracks, chances are this is the album that would result. Everything here was all but ubiquitous on '60s radio, from the group's first Top 10 hit "Where Did Our Love Go" in 1964, to their commercially canny farewell "Someday We'll Be Together" in 1969. In fact, these songs are so familiar to several generations of music fans that they're practically implanted on a genetic level. If you feel the need for more, however, Motown's 25-track ULTIMATE COLLECTION is a good one-disc alternative.
