5 out of 5 stars SUPREME REMASTER, STEREO ORIGINALS.......2006-05-13

LIKE OTHER COMILATIONS OF THE SUPREMES THIS CONTAINS ALL THE GREATEST HITS, BUT NOW IT REALLY SOUNDS BETTER, CLEARER 6 LOUDER, IF YOU WERE WAITING FOR A WORTH REMASTERER OF THE SUPREMES NOW IS IS HERE.

5 out of 5 stars The Best of the Best!.......2005-08-02

There aren't many girl groups past or present that can even begin to live up to the legacy of The Supremes. Through a period of 16 years (1961-1977) and many different line-ups, they managed a long string of massive hits all over the world, including 12 US number one singles, all of which are featured on this CD. "Gold" gives fans and new listeners a chance to hear the very best of the worlds best girl group.
The first CD features all the hits from 1963-1967, featuring the classic line-up of Diana Ross on lead, backed by Mary Wilson and Florence Ballard. The massive hits such as "Baby Love", "Where Did Our Love Go?", "You Can't Hurry Love" and "Stop! In The Name Of Love" all sound brilliant here - digitally remastered and in great quality. However, there are also some hidden gems worth checking out, particularly "Ask Any Girl" (the B-side to "Baby Love") and "Everything Is Good About You", which could have easily been a single in it's own right.
Moving on to the second disc and it begins with some of the later Diana Ross-era tracks (after Florence Ballard had been replaced by Cindy Birdsong in the line-up). The songs here are more soulful than the earlier pop hits, such as "Reflections" and "Forever Came Today". Some songs such as "Love Child" and "I'm Livin' In Shame" are social commentaries of the time.
Finally, the second disc gives the listener the chance to hear some of the post-Diana hits.
In 1970, Diana left and was replaced on lead by Jean Terrell. Some of the songs from this period are some of the Supremes' all time best. Jean's soulful voice really livens up excellent songs, such as "Stoned Love", "Nathan Jones", "Floy Joy" and "Up The Ladder To The Roof" (all UK top 10 hits), as well as a brilliant cover of "Love Train".
The line-up changed again in 1973, when Jean left and was replaced on lead by Scherrie Payne (sister of Freda Payne who had a hit with "Band Of Gold" in 1970). Scherrie's powerful voice stands out on disco tracks, such as "I'm Gonna Let My Heart Do The Walking" and "You're my Driving Wheel", which are amongst The Supremes last ever chart hits.
The Supremes "Gold" is essential for all music fans to have in their collection. It shows the brilliance of a group who have never been (and probably never will be) bettered. On top of the great music, the artwork is excellent as well, featuring pictures of all the different group line-ups, and the sound quality on this CD is excellent. I cannot recommend it enough - buy it today!

5 out of 5 stars The Supremes Go Gold.......2005-05-15

Whether you're a newcomer, or a longtime fan of The Supremes, this compilation is a must have. Disc one features Diana Ross and the Supremes' Greatest Hits volumes 1&2. Disc two features DRATS' Greatest Hits volume 3 and for the first time on cd ever, At Their Best, a sampling of The Supremes' hits from the 70's. The booklet features all of the albums' origianl cover art along with full page photos of Diana, Mary & Flo; Diana, Mary & Cindy; Jean, Mary & Cindy; and Mary, Scherrie & Susaye. I highly reccomend this compilation for anybody who loves The Supremes.

5 out of 5 stars 5 Stars But...........2005-04-30

Disc One is actually "Diana Ross & The Supremes Greatest Hits Volumes 1 & 2" from 1967 and Disc Two is 1970's "Greatest Hits, Volume 3" plus the Ross-less Supremes collection "At Their Best", the latter alone being previously unavailable on CD. It's nice to have all the hits with and without Diana Ross in one great-sounding package, but true afficianados will prefer "Antholgy", which better showcases the Supremes' range by including non-hits, several fine album tracks, and more.

1 out of 5 stars GOOD FOR NEWCOMERS, BUT OTHERWISE......................2005-04-29

Here it is, Supremes fans, the CD you've been waiting for!
This is the zillionth Supremes hits compilation on the
market, adding absolutely nothing new to their catalog other
than a new cover photo and serial number. Why anyone who is
already a fan would buy this is beyond me. I will say, however,
that for a novice who wants to discover the Supremes, it's
okay. HEY UNIVERSAL EXECS, how about releasing some of these
on remastered DOMESTIC cd's: Supremes At The Copa, Love Child,
I Hear A Symphony, TCB, An Evening With Diana Ross, Diana Ross
(1976 classic), Live At Caesar's Palace, Surrender or some of
the unreleased stuff you've got sitting around? Oh wait, then
you'd have to actually spend a few thousand dollars! Well,
we Motown fans will be anxiously awaiting the next Supremes
Anthology. Can't wait to hear "Baby Love" again!!!!!!!!!
