it's 1964 during their european tour that promt "BABY LOVE" to top of the #1 charts in the UK. They had to sing early songs because it was before their other ten #1 song with DMF.
@arab3515 It didn't last long. The JFK assasination, MLK and Bobby K assasinations. 1967 with the drug culture, all blasted alot of the innocense away in the US.
Wow! Never knew there was video for this song, which may very well be their first charted hit. At least it was the first one I ever heard growing up in D.C. in the seventh grade around '62/63. One of my favorites!
@skateitalian Have to agree about the harmony...this shows it off even more than the wonderful studio recording...this is one of my all-time fave Supremes sides
Music now has definitely changed...far removed from the melodies and vocal abilities of artists into some beat box machine made sounds...disappointing. I kind of make my children listen to everything, including the Supremes...They have to know there was once such talent, and that talent changed the world! Can you imagine, my mother was banned from listening to this because of their race! How awful, Diana Ross is amazing!
Mary and Flo are TIGHT!!!! They sound great. Diana's holding back and is being out shined by the girls, for a change.

Skinny Diana's padded dress is almost falling off her. Note the polite applause for the then upcoming superstars.
