Although all of these 20 songs were credited to the Supremes when they were released between 1963 and 1967, this album marked the first LP on which the group was billed as "Diana Ross and the Supremes." However you credit it, this out-of-print double-LP contains the bulk of the best of The Supremes, no less than ten Number One hits from "Where Did Our Love Go" to "The Happening," and thus some of the most popular music of the 1960s. Ross and the Supremes, together and separately, continued to score afterwards, but this was their peak.

 (EXCERPT FROM AN ONLINE REVIEW BY WILLIAM RUHLMAN, ALL MUSIC GUIDE  /ALLMUSIC.COM/)

The title says it all: Everything you ever wanted to hear - EVERY SINGLE HIT DIANA AND THE GIRLS EVER SCORED - by the ONLY AMERICAN BAND THAT COULD COMPETE WITH THE BEATLES AT THE PEAK OF BRITISH INVASION. Yes, the girls had an unbroken string of # 1 hits at a time when climbing up to # 50 on US charts was a pipe dream for most American artists. And then, there’s this gorgeous analog sound, for maximum sonic impact. Once you hear "You keep me hangin’ on" exploding from the speakers, you will know what Holland-Dozier-Holland REALLY had in mind here. 20 (count ‘em) songs  of pure guilty pleasure. Girl Group sound was never again - or before - so masculine and punchy. And, of course, the list of people who have covered these songs reads like who’s who of Rock and Soul. The songs are: When the lovelight starts shining through his eyes - Run, run, run - Where did our love go - Baby Love - Ask any girl - Come see about me - Stop! In the name of love - Back in my arms again - Nothing but heartaches - I hear a symphony - My world is empty without you - Everything is good about you - Love is like an itching in my heart - You can’t harry love - You keep me hanging on - Love is here and now you are gone - The happening - Whisper you love me boy - There's no stopping us now - Standing at the crossroads of love. THIS IS SOUL, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN.  Finding a still sealed original copy WITH A 3-PART POSTER?!?! Forget it – not even a HOPE!!! This may be the last one you will ever see.

For its extraordinary contribution to the modern music, superb production, craftsmanship, fine musicianship, revolutionary significance and influence it exerted on numerous generations of musicians, writers and general public, or for some other innate quality, this album was voted one of top-200 albums of all time in one of the largest poll of critics, music reviewers, professionals and producers ever organized: the poll, which was conducted by Paul Gambaccini, legendary BBC Radio A&R man, surveyed more than 50 top music professionals (including Roy Carr, Jonathan Cott, Robert Christgau, Cameron Crowe, Chet Flippo, Ben Fong-Torres, Charlie Gillett, Greil Marcus, Murray the K., Lenny Kaye, Bruce Morrow (a/k/a "Cousin Brucie"), Tim Rice (of "Jesus Christ Superstar" and "Evita" fame), Lisa Robinson, Robert Shelton (who wrote liner notes for Bob Dylan's first album), Ed Ward, Joel Whitburn, Pete Wingfield, etc.).

·                               CONDITION:

·                               RECORD

 (IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!; we  grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight)

(a)          THE ALBUM IS STILL FACTORY SEALED AND IS BELIEVED TO BE PERFECTLY MINT. Please note: sealed items are assumed to be mint and are sold as-is, as we have no way of inspecting them. For our policy on still sealed records ►click here (PLEASE READ BEFORE PLACING A BID).

(b)          The records are  believed to come in their original stock inner sleeves.

(c)        The album comes with the original poster  (SUCH AS THE ONE SHOWN BELOW, FROM OUR PREVIOUS AUCTION)  still intact (the poster is wrapped around the opening side and partially visible from the outside).

(d)          The records are  apparently  pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the first or very early pressings. Usually, the sound on such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, vivid, and even dramatic. Do not expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from a digital recording!

(e)           Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!
