S4-Ep.3 The Supremes Sing Holland–Dozier–Holland (Motown)
Release Jan 23, 1967, and Recorded 1964-1966
The Supremes Sing Holland–Dozier–Holland is a standout album that showcases the magic between The Supremes and the iconic Motown songwriting and production team Holland-Dozier-Holland (HDH). Released at the peak of their popularity, the album features classic hits like "You Keep Me Hangin' On" and "Love Is Here and Now You're Gone," reaching No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. These tracks highlight Diana Ross's powerful vocals, backed by the impeccable musicianship of Motown's Funk Brothers. The album blends sophisticated pop with emotional storytelling, driven by HDH’s signature sound—tight harmonies, lush orchestrations, and an infectious rhythm. While the album is more a collection of singles than a cohesive concept, its polished sound and universal appeal helped solidify The Supremes as pop and R&B icons. Despite internal group tensions, including Florence Ballard’s eventual departure, their collaboration with HDH remains a cornerstone of Motown’s legacy.
Signature Track "You Keep Me Hangin' On," "Love is Here and Now You're Gone," "It's The Same Old Song"
