5.0 out of 5 stars Progressive Japanese Remixes Capture the Flavor of the Originals, July 24, 2007

This is a great package of remixes. The new versions are longer, deeper, and more challenging than the "safe" American remixes we get here. Some of these guys took the girls' voices way out there and came back winners. There's hard dance music, melodic "disco" type songs, and a couple of experimental sounding mixes that I hope will grow on me. The Fantastic Plastic Machine remix of Ain't No Mountain... is exciting and fun. Man, I'd love to be on a dancefloor with this song playing full blast. I'm Still Waiting is given a shuffling beat with sweet strings. All in all, you'll hear the Supremes voices sounding just as contemporary in these remixes as any of the current divas out there, and that's just wonderful. Touch Me In the Morning gets a down and dirty, fast tempo remix complete with an audience cheering. Diana's voice doesn't sound distorted at all as she asks if we know where we're going to as the music POUNDS behind her. I hope Diana Ross listens to this and gets a warm feeling knowing that a whole new generation will be discovering her voice. I'm old enough to have seen her performing with the Supremes on Ed Sullivan, and this collection respected us older listeners and gave me lots of listening pleasure. Very deep, joyful mixes with the melodies intact.

Could the hype & promise possibly live up to the expectation? When I saw the track listing I was dreading having to listen to yet another remix of "I'm Coming Out," (two versions), "Upside Down," and "The Boss," yet was pleasantly surprised how reworked and fresh these classics are as presented here. "You Keep Me Hangin' On," "Stop! In The Name Of Love," "Baby Love" and "You Can't Hurry Love" feature Diana Ross, Mary Wilson & Florence Ballard re-imagined and re-invented, and it works! Simply divine divalicious ear candy! My only let down is that not more Supremes recordings were retooled. I would especially have loved to hear "Love Is Like An Itching In My Heart" reworked, but maybe this will pave the way for more Supremes remix projects in the future. For a real treat, check out the Ashford & Simpson Songbook CD. The Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell track "Aint' No Mountain High Enough" (Arthur's A Major Reconstruction Mix) features the horn break from "Itching" in the bridge. That homage to "the girls" just brings a wide grin of recognition each time I hear it!
If Diana and Mary could just work out their thing and maybe recruit one of Florence Ballard's daughters who can sing to embark on a real farewell tour. Perhaps they could get backed by the surving Funk Brothers and perform new arrangements of their hit recordings from a more mature, retrospective point of view. Who else can sing of the highs and lows of love? As the French DJ on the Motor Town Revue In Paris said in announcing the Supremes...."Elles, sont trois, elles sont radisant, elles sont belles, et elles s'appelle Les Supremes et c'est pas pour rein! (They are three, they are radiant, they are beautiful, they are called the Supremes, and it isn't for nothing!) The Supremes have seen and done it all!
Wouldn't that be giving hardcore Supremes fans a night in heaven? Think of the energy and love vibes that would generate! But in the meantime, please Japanese mix masters sir..... can we have please some more????

1.0 out of 5 stars The worst remix album ever, September 25, 2007

Constantin Declercq "Constantin Declercq" - See all my reviews

Stop! in the name of music... and good taste! Another collection of remixes and of course they are awful. Some songs are just electronic games jingles («You keep hangin' on» specifically). When I heard this record for the first time I thought something was wrong with my cd player («Ain't no mountain high enough» sounds like a scratched record). This expensive record is as ridiculous as the laughable names of the remixes. You can't even dance on them! The only songs you can listen to completely are too close to the originals: so what's the point?
