Supremes

Supremes

SUPREMES. American girl group of the 1960s. The Supremes were the most commercially successful of all Motown's acts and remain America's most successful female vocal group with twelve No1 singles including ; Baby Love / Where Did Our Love Go / Stop in The Name of Love / You Can't Hurry Love / You Keep Me Hanging On / The Happening / Reflections / I'm Gonna Make You Love Me and Stoned Love. Most of these hits were written and produced by Motown's main songwriting and production team, Holland-Dozier-Holland. At their peak they rivalled The Beatles in worldwide popularity and their success made it possible for future African American R&B / soul musicians to find mainstream success. During the mid-1960s, they achieved mainstream success with Diana Ross as their lead singer and in 1967 Motown president Berry Gordy renamed the group Diana Ross & The Supremes. Diana Ross left to pursue a solo career in 1970 and was replaced by Jean Terrell, at which point the group's name reverted to The Supremes. After 1972, the lineup changed frequently until finally disbanding in 1977 after an 18-year run. Founding member Mary Wilson died in Nevada on February 8th 2021 aged 76
