This live album is a rare treat because, recorded from a performance in Japan in 1973, this album was only released in Japan and the UK. Now we americans can finally hear this spectacular live performance by America's Sweethearts. The Supremes (Jean Terrell, Mary Wilson, & Lynda Laurence) really brought down the house with the performances of their greatest hits, some of the 60's Supremes greatest hits, and just a few fillers. True I wasn't born yet and even if I was I probably would never have gotten to a performance in Japan. However, it all made for a great show. The girls truly shine on their performances of Liza Minelli's "Cabaret", "T.C.B" from the collaboration of Diana Ross & The Supremes & The Temptations back in the late 60's. They also performed medleys of their hits, featuring "Up The Ladder To The Roof", "Automatically Sunshine", "Nathan Jones", and Floy Joy". However, they also revisited the classics of Diana Ross & The Supremes with a medley of "Reflections", "Where Did Our Love Go?", "Baby Love", and "My World Is Empty Without You". Also featured is their, at the time, new single release "Bad Weather". Also featuring MAry, performing her signature song "Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You", and a slow little ditty "Cherry, Cherry Pie", and finale of "Somewhere", this album is really worth buying. A word of advice however, if you really want this album, but don't want to wait for a long delivery if you buy it used, Hip-O-Select.com, is selling used special editions. Definitely worth your while, I highly suggest this album to all those Supremes fans out there.

It's amazing. I bought this cd to fill my Mary Wilson and Supremes collection. Because it was a limited edition,to preserve it I didn't open it. Looking on a Sunday to listen to some different stuff from my collection,I opened it! I was horrified!! Horrified because after listening to it realizing its a limited edition. This is so good it should be all over amazon and the cd universe!, I was so delighted at the material, the sound and the wonderful Jean Terrell, who's voice is wonderful and not whinny and over powering like Ross. The blend of the voices is like velvet. For once the girls aren't screaming at the tops of their lungs to be heard (a little extra favor Gordy used to do for Ross among others) by turning their mikes way down! The best thing I like ( besides the whole disc!!), is the supremes TCB medley. I'm sorry but Jeans voice is so much more enjoyable. I whole-heatedly recommend this awesome disc before they are all gone. Peace!!

The Supremes were always great entertainers, singers and statement of fashion since the 1960's and always packed concert halls, tv appearances were expected with great anxiety by the fan base, when Diana Ross left the group, Jean Terrell took over the lead, a great voice, often describe as been better, quoted from a remark from Berry Gordy, than Diana Ross, but in all fairness, two different singers two different styles. This CD if you are a fan, should be in your collection, but it shows as to why The Supremes, did not survive, because the show itself reflects copying from old shows, and in the performance of the new recordings, people usually expect the songs to be sang if not like the recordings, but similar and this performance shows a distruction of those tunes. I bought it because as a fan of the group, I had to have it, but I have to admit that this is a poor performance of the girls, they could have done better. Perhaps this is also a verification of what Mary Wilson had been saying all along, that no guidance and direction was given to them once Diana Ross left the group. Talented they were and are, but not well directed and produced.

I only bought this album because I was a Supremes fan but there's a problem when the liner notes refer to the lead singer of the Supremes as "Tina Duress" instead of "Jean Terrell", even Lynda Laurence's name wasn't that bad "Linda Lorenz". The show didn't seem well put together as the good songs ended very quickly. I only bought it to hear Lynda sing something lead (I heard Mary and Jean all the time) but it wasn't worth it. I loved all of the Supremes and its a shame to see these women didn't get proper credability for doing such a good job, they were stressed out all the time because Motown kept dumping on them. I could hear it in Jean's voice that she was just tired of everything and she just did the concert to do it. I even felt the tension when she introduced Mary Wilson to do her solo song. The Supremes were FANTASTIC! All of them! Beautiful in their own ways, creative, intelligent ... but without proper pushing (and undercover haters in the management office) your spirit will begin to break and the fans will pick up on other music. The Supremes did their best to survive through the 70s but they were all tired of Motown and Pedro. Still the memories and songs from this era are the best hidden and recovered gems to exist.
