The_Supremes_discography
American girl group The Supremes have released 29 studio albums, four live albums, two soundtrack albums, 32 compilation albums, four box sets, 66 singles and three promotional singles. The Supremes are the most successful American group of all time, and the 26th greatest artist of all time on the US Billboard charts;[1] with 12 number-one songs on the Billboard Hot 100 (the fifth-best total in the chart's history)[2] and three number-one albums on the Billboard 200.[3] The Supremes were the first artist to accumulate five consecutive number-one singles on the US Hot 100[4] and the first female group to top the Billboard 200 albums chart with The Supremes A' Go-Go (1966).[5] In 2017, Billboard ranked The Supremes as the number-one girl group of all time, publishing, 'although there have been many girl group smashes in the decades since the Supremes ruled the Billboard charts, no collective has yet to challenge their, for lack of a better word, supremacy.'[6] In 2019, the UK Official Charts Company placed 7 Supremes songs—"You Can't Hurry Love" (16), "Baby Love" (23), "Stop! In the Name of Love" (56), "Where Did Our Love Go?" (59), "You Keep Me Hangin' On" (78), "Come See About Me" (94) and "Stoned Love" (99)—on The Official Top 100 Motown songs of the Millennium chart, which ranks Motown releases by their all-time UK downloads and streams.[7][8]

In 2020, Insider.com named The Supremes "the best-selling vocal group to date",[9] after Ebony estimated The Supremes' record sales at 50 million in 1980[10] and Euronews reported total sales exceeding 100 million records in 2014.[11][12] This would make the group one of the best-selling music artists of all time. However, Motown refused to submit their books for industry audit,[13] until the 1980s, years after the group disbanded.[14][15] As such, The Supremes' first certifications include; the Anthology compilation album, which peaked at number 66 on the US Billboard 200[3] and was certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) on January 21, 1986;[16] and the Love Supreme (1988) compilation, which peaked at number ten on the UK Albums Chart[17] and was certified Silver by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) on January 27, 1989.[18] To put this into perspective, the group's first hits compilation, Greatest Hits (1967), topped both the US[3] and UK albums charts upon release.[17] Despite selling over one million copies in the US,[19] with 89 total weeks on the Billboard 200;[3] and being the UK's fourth "longest-reigning Top 40 girl group album ever", with a total of 60 weeks in the top 40;[20] Greatest Hits (1967) is not certified by either the RIAA or BPI.
The Supremes (1960–1967)
After several non-charting releases, The Supremes made their first appearance on the US Hot 100 in August, 1962 with "Your Heart Belongs to Me". They released their debut album, Meet The Supremes (1962), featuring the singles, "I Want a Guy", "Buttered Popcorn" (led by Florence Ballard), "Your Heart Belongs to Me" and "Let Me Go the Right Way"; the latter being their first appearance on the US Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart (then titled Hot R&B Singles).[21] Though Meet The Supremes failed to chart in the US, in 1964, it was released with an alternate tracklisting in the UK, featuring the title-track to their next album, "Where Did Our Love Go", which peaked at number three in the UK. The UK release of Meet The Supremes peaked at number thirteen, becoming the first charting LP for Motown in the UK.[22]
The Supremes' second studio album Where Did Our Love Go (1964), featured their first three consecutive number-ones and million-sellers in the US; "Where Did Our Love Go", "Baby Love" and "Come See About Me"; as well as their first top 40 and international hit, "When the Lovelight Starts Shining Through His Eyes". "Where Did Our Love Go" sold over 2 million copies in the US alone, where it is ranked number 586 on the Billboard all-time chart, where "Baby Love" is number 559.[23] "Where Did Our Love Go" also hit number-one in Canada and New Zealand; whilst "Baby Love" topped the charts in the UK, New Zealand and Singapore, and was nominated at the 7th Annual Grammy Awards for Best Rhythm & Blues Recording.[24] The album, Where Did Our Love Go topped the US Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart (then titled Hot R&B LPs), and hit number two on the Billboard 200, where it spent a total of 89 weeks.[3]
This was followed by the themed albums, A Bit of Liverpool (1964), The Supremes Sing Country, Western and Pop (1965) and We Remember Sam Cooke (1965), which charted at numbers 21, 79 and 75 in the US, respectively. Their sixth studio album, More Hits by The Supremes, hit number six on the Billboard 200 and two on the R&B Albums chart. It contained their fourth and fifth consecutive US number-ones and million-sellers; "Stop! In the Name of Love", nominated at the 8th Annual Grammy Awards for Best Contemporary (R&R) Performance – Group (Vocal or Instrumental);[24] and "Back in My Arms Again" which also hit number one in Canada.[25] Last single, "Nothing but Heartaches", was their sixth consecutive million-selling single in the US,[26] notable for breaking their chain of number-ones when it peaked at number eleven.[27] Their first live album, The Supremes at the Copa (1965) was released alongside their seventh studio album, Merry Christmas (1965); which produced the singles "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Me", "My Favorite Things" and "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town", which hit number one in Singapore and number two in Malaysia.
The Supremes' eighth studio album, I Hear a Symphony (1966), was their second number-one album on the Billboard R&B chart. It features their seventh and eighth consecutive US million-sellers; the title track, which hit number one in the US and Canada, and US top 5, "My World Is Empty Without You", which also topped the Canadian singles chart. The Supremes A' Go-Go (1966), their ninth studio album, 'made chart history' as 'the first album in the rock era by a girl group' to hit number-one in the US.[28] It contains the US top 10 "Love Is Like an Itching in My Heart" and their ninth US million-seller and seventh number one, "You Can't Hurry Love".[29] Their tenth studio album, The Supremes Sing Holland–Dozier–Holland (1967), was their third Billboard R&B number one; featuring their tenth and eleventh US million-sellers; "You Keep Me Hangin' On" and "Love Is Here and Now You're Gone", which both topped the US Hot 100. Included on the Greatest Hits (1967) compilation, their twelfth million-selling single in the US, "The Happening", also topped the US Hot 100, becoming their tenth US number-one between 1964 and 1967.
Diana Ross & the Supremes (1967–1970)
As Diana Ross & the Supremes, they released two further singles featuring vocals by founding member Florence Ballard; their 13th US million-seller "Reflections" and US top 10 "In and Out of Love". Their twelfth studio album, Reflections (1968), contains both singles and was the first to feature Cindy Birdsong in Ballard's place. Their fourteenth studio album, Diana Ross & the Supremes Join the Temptations, was their first UK number-one album. It featured the hit single, "I'm Gonna Make You Love Me", which sold 900,000 copies in its first two weeks of release[30] and was certified Platinum by the RIAA on August 7, 1997.[31] This was shortly followed by their eleventh US number-one single "Love Child", which sold 500,000 in its first week and 2 million copies by the end of 1968 in the US alone.[30] Also a number-one hit in Canada in New Zealand, "Love Child" was the title track of their 1968 album. Their second live album, Live at London's Talk of the Town (1968), was their first live release to chart in the UK. Their first soundtrack album, TCB (1968), became their third release to top both the US Billboard 200 and R&B Albums charts.
Their sixteenth studio album, Let the Sunshine In (1969), produced three top 40 singles, including the top 10, "I'm Livin' in Shame". Together, their seventeenth studio album and second with The Temptations, produced the lone single "The Weight", which became the group's lowest-charting single since 1964's "Run, Run, Run". The group's eighteenth studio album, Cream of the Crop, was the last released with Diana Ross. It contains their last US number-one, "Someday We'll Be Together", which sold 2 million in the US[32] and 3 million worldwide.[33] The single was certified Platinum by the RIAA on August 7, 1997.[31]
The Supremes (1970–1977)
As The Supremes, with Jean Terrell as lead singer, their nineteenth studio album, Right On (1970), was released. It features "Up the Ladder to the Roof", which hit the top 10 in Canada, Iceland, the UK and the US, where it became The Supremes' seventeenth million-selling single. The Magnificent 7 (1970), their first collaborative studio album with the Four Tops, is one of The Supremes' highest-charting album releases in the UK, where it peaked at number six.[17] The Magnificent 7, featured their cover of Ike & Tina Turner's, "River Deep, Mountain High", which became the most successful US release of the song, peaking at number fourteen on the Hot 100 and number seven on the R&B chart.[34]
Their twenty-first studio album, New Ways but Love Stays (1970), features "Stoned Love", which became the group's last number-one on the US Billboard R&B singles chart and last top 10 on the Hot 100. Internationally, "Stoned Love" hit the top 10 in Canada, Iceland and Singapore; and was The Supremes' highest charting UK single since "I'm Gonna Make You Love Me" (with The Temptations) in 1968 and "You Can't Hurry Love" in 1966, which like "Stoned Love", peaked at number 3.[17] Touch (1971), is the twenty-third studio album by The Supremes and their last non-compilation album to chart in the UK top 40.[17] Touch includes the single, "Nathan Jones", which hit the UK top 5, as well as the top 20 in Canada and the US, where it became the group's third million-selling single with Jean Terrell.[35] Floy Joy (1972), their twenty-fifth studio album, contains the US top 40 singles, "Floy Joy" and "Automatically Sunshine", which both reached the UK top 10. "Floy Joy" was the fourth million-selling Supremes single in the US with Terrell, and twentieth million-selling single by the group overall.[36] In 1973, the Stevie Wonder-produced "Bad Weather",[37] featuring Cindy Birdsong replacement Lynda Laurence, was the group's last single to reach the UK top 40.[17] In the US, "Bad Weather" was the group's lowest-charting single since "Run, Run, Run" in 1964.[38]
Following this, Jean Terrell and Lynda Laurence left and were replaced by former Glass House member and new lead singer, Scherrie Payne and former Supreme Cindy Birdsong. After a two-year hiatus, with original member Mary Wilson, they released their twenty-seventh studio album The Supremes (1975). High Energy (1976), their twenty-eighth studio album, featured the group's last US top 40 hit, "I'm Gonna Let My Heart Do the Walking",[38] which features additional vocals by Susaye Greene, who replaced Birdsong during the album's recording. Of The Supremes' 1970s albums, High Energy, is the second-highest charting after Right On (1970),[3] whilst in Canada, High Energy is the highest-charting Supremes album since TCB (1968). Mary, Scherrie & Susaye (1976) is the twenty-ninth and final studio album by The Supremes, featuring their last single to hit the US Hot 100, "You're My Driving Wheel";[38] plus the singles "Let Yourself Go" and "Love, I Never Knew You Could Feel So Good", which all reached number five on the US Dance Club Songs chart.[39]

| Title | Year | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| The Supremes Sing Ballads & Blues[319] | 1963 | The Supremes Sing Ballads & Blues was assigned a catalog number (Motown 610) in late 1963 and given a projected release date. Although it was not released, several of the tracks originally recorded for it appeared on the album The Supremes Sing Country, Western and Pop in spring 1965. |
| Live, Live, Live![319] | 1965 | Live, Live, Live!, a combination of live concert recordings, was scheduled for release on Motown 625 in early 1965. Although no official track list is available, the live set from the expanded fortieth anniversary edition of the Where Did Our Love Go album features tracks that were slated for inclusion on the album. The Where Did Our Love Go anniversary edition liner notes indicate the possibility of tracks from the Motortown Revue in Paris were also considered. |
| There's a Place for Us[319][320] | There's a Place for Us, an album of pop standards, was originally scheduled to be released in the summer of 1965 to tie into the Supremes' groundbreaking debut appearance at the Copacabana nightclub in New York. It was ultimately shelved in favor for a live album of their Copacabana engagement which included many songs originally on the album. The album eventually saw a release as an expanded volume in 2004, 39 years after it was completed.[320] | |
| A Tribute to the Girls[319] | A Tribute to the Girls was an album Motown planned for the group to record in 1965 featuring songs made famous by girl groups of the time; however it was never completed. Several tracks were featured on the expanded release of There's a Place for Us. | |
| Around The World with The Supremes[319] | Around The World with The Supremes was an album Motown intended to showcase the group singing famous international songs such as "Sukiyaki," "Tie Me Kangaroo Down Sport" and "Nel blu dipinto di blu." 11 instrumental tracks were recorded, but the album was never completed as vocals were never added. | |
| Pure Gold[319] | 1966 | Pure Gold, an album of greatest hits-like material, was planned for release in May 1966, but was cancelled. |
| Live at the Roostertail[321] | Live at the Roostertail, a live concert recorded on September 26, 1966, has a significantly different set list to the earlier The Supremes at the Copa (1965), but was shelved. Motown considered a mix of the album featuring songs from the Roostertail show with songs recorded at the 1965 Copacabana engagement but not included on the live album. The set features a medley of songs from their I Hear a Symphony (1966) album, which was similarly performed on The Ed Sullivan Show in addition to "More (Theme from Mondo Cane)". The set is also notable for containing the last recorded performances of "Make Someone Happy" and "People".[321] Two tracks from the album, "You Can't Hurry Love," and "Group Introductions," were released in 2000 on a bonus disc included with certain copies of The Supremes box set.[322] The complete show was released in 2012 on the expanded edition of the I Hear A Symphony album.[323] | |
| The Supremes and the Motown Sound: From Broadway to Hollywood[324] | 1967 | The Supremes and the Motown Sound: From Broadway to Hollywood was intended for release in early 1967, but no formal track listings for the album were produced despite an album worth of tracks were recorded. It is widely believed that the album would have been based around the group's then-current number one single, "The Happening." Tracks for the album were recorded in Los Angeles and featured songs made popular on Broadway or in Hollywood films. Earlier vaulted material, notably from the featured recordings from the There's a Place for Us, sessions were also considered for inclusion. |
| Live at the Copa[325] | Live at the Copa, a live recording of concerts between May 19–20, 1967 is notable as one of the last to feature Florence Ballard. The set features a rare live recording of "My Favorite Things", in addition to the number-one hit "The Happening" and a medley of “Thoroughly Modern Millie,” “Second Hand Rose” and “Mame” which were previously only available on Live at London's Talk of the Town (1968), featuring Cindy Birdsong in Ballard's place.[326] Three tracks from the album, "Somewhere," "Group Introduction" and "You're Nobody 'til Somebody Loves You," were released on the second disc of The Supremes (2000) box set.[322] The complete set, composed of the best takes from both shows, was released on the 2018 expanded edition of The Supremes Sing Holland-Dozier-Holland.[326] | |
| Live at the Roostertail[327] | Live at the Roostertail, a live concert recorded on August 27, 1967, remains largely unreleased due to problems with the master tape. It was the first live recording to feature Cindy Birdsong. Two tracks from the album, "You Keep Me Hangin' On," and "Reflections," were released with certain limited copies of The Supremes (2000) box set, on a bonus disc titled In Person - An Evening With The Supremes.[322][328] | |
| Diana Ross & the Supremes Sing Disney Classics[329] | 1968 | Diana Ross & the Supremes Sing Disney Classics was an album featuring covers of songs from films produced by Walt Disney Productions. Recordings for the album began in 1967 with Florence Ballard and continued with her replacement, Cindy Birdsong. Songs recorded for the album, have appeared on the 1986 compilation series 25th Anniversary[330] as well as The Never-Before-Released Masters (1987). "Chim Chim Cher-ee", "A Spoonful of Sugar", and "Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah" still remain unreleased.[329] |
| Some Things You Never Get Used To[331] | Some Things You Never Get Used To was a 1968 album named after the single. The album was shelved when the single failed to make the impact expected. The proposed track list was: Side One: "Some Things You Never Get Used To", "Heaven Must Have Sent You", "He's My Sunny Boy", "Come On and See Me", "Can I Get a Witness" and "You've Been So Wonderful to Me". Side Two: "My Guy", "It's Not Unusual", "Just a Little Misunderstanding", "Uptight (Everything's Alright)", "What Becomes of the Brokenhearted" and "Blowin' in the Wind".[331] Several of the songs on side one, including the single, appeared on Love Child (1968),[332] "What Becomes of the Brokenhearted" on Let the Sunshine In (1969)[333] and "Blowin' in the Wind" on Cream of the Crop (1969).[334] The remaining unreleased tracks were later included on the compilation albums 25th Anniversary, Vol. 2 (1986)[330] and Let the Music Play: Supreme Rarities (2008).[335] | |
| Promises Kept[336] | 1971 | Promises Kept, a 1971 set by the "New Supremes" produced by Clay McMurray, Bobby Taylor, Ashford & Simpson, and others. Despite a wealth of recordings, an official track list was never finalized and the Supremes were instead assigned to work on Floy Joy with Smokey Robinson as producer. Some of the Promises Kept songs appear on the 2000 Supremes box set and the 2002 70s Anthology. Thirteen other tracks from the sessions are also included in The Supremes box set This Is the Story: The '70s Albums, Vol. 1 – 1970–1973: The Jean Terrell Years.[336] |
| Untitled Stevie Wonder Album[37] | 1973 | Stevie Wonder wrote and produced "Bad Weather", described as 'their most innovative single to date', with hopes the song would return the group back to the top of the charts. However, despite positive critical reception, the song only peaked at number 87 on the Billboard Hot 100, though it peaked within the top 40 of the UK Singles Chart. Disappointed, Wonder complained to Motown President Ewart Abner, who promised the company would "get on it" but subsequently Wonder's plans to record an album with The Supremes were scrapped.[37] Including "Bad Weather", Stevie Wonder wrote and produced three songs for The Supremes. Lynda Laurence would later recall the group recorded six songs.[337] |
