A Motown Milestone
1 of 1 found this helpful Originally released as a two-disc vinyl LP in August 1967, "Supremes Greatest Hits" really never should have split into two CDs, what with their capacity for 80 minutes of material. That material is as familiar to any babyboomer as a list of Beatles songs would be, so need to name them.
But for those old enough to have lived that time (I was 13), the album was prepared and in stores, just as troubles were to begin, just as stories, later proved truths, about Florence Ballard's ouster began to generate, and before the all important author/producers of Supremes hits, Holland-Dozier-Holland, embarked on their very acrimonious departure from Motown.
Beginning itself with November 1963's "When The Lovelight Starts Shining Through His Eyes" - the Supremes first Top 40 Billboard placement - and ending with their 10th No. 1 hit, "The Happening" in April 1967, the album is a snapshot of a moment when it looked clear skies ahead for as far as you could see. When The Supremes presented "There's No Stopping Us Now" in January 1967, fans took it as a personal message that the treasures and good times had only begun.
Though the set, introduced early in the CD era, has been supplanted many times over, for even a fan determined to eventually 'own them all,' "Supremes Greatest Hits" is an economic gateway. Unhesitatingly recommended.

Not a single dud in 16
Contains four songs never included in the American line of this "16 Big Hits Series": The Temptations' Girl Why You Wanna Make Me Blue; The Miracles' The Man In You & I Like It Like That and The Marvelettes' You're My Remedy. Covers the time period from the Vandellas' Heat Wave in July 1963 to The Supremes' Baby Love 9/17/64, and as Smokey Robinson himself once put it, "By 1963 the pot was boiling, by 1964 it was boiling over."
I strongly recommend the mono pressing, but the songs, every one of them, are a babyboomers essentials.
