After 30+ years, still one of my favorites, February 18, 2004
This review is from: New Ways But Love Stays (Audio CD)
Of all the various Supremes lineups, I think Mary, Cindy & Jean had the most mature, spiritually oriented body of work...and probably well ahead of its time. This, their 2nd set, is peerless. Edgy, funky, trippy and pretty aggressive, it's a solid listen from track to track. It also boasts what I consider to be the best cover of "Bridge Over Troubled Water" I've ever heard (by the way, Jean Terrell is the main lead singer on this track, although Mary Wilson has the opening line, followed by Cindy Birdsong). Bonus track "Love The One You're With" is the weakest, and that's saying a lot, because on its own merit, it really isn't a weak track (featuring the 4 Tops on backing vocals).
This is probably the funkiest album ever recorded by The Supremes.

Supremes Being Supreme Without Diana, April 1, 2005
This review is from: New Ways But Love Stays (Audio CD)
This was the second release by the Supremes without Diana Ross. It contains the huge hit "Stoned Love" that has an incredible intro melding it with Together We Can Make Sweet Music."
This was one of my favorite Supremes LP and it deserves to be on WIDE release CD again. I am hoping that we see more LP's into CD like Diana's "Last Time I Saw Him" & the Supremes' "Mary, Sherrie & Susaye."
