This track was intended for the album "The Supremes A Go-Go, but did not see the light of day till it appeared on "The Supremes Never Before Released Masters.

@BAREBACKER Have to agree that Flo was better on certain songs. She certainly sang with more soul than Ms Ross
-
diana way too weak on this lead vocal. this should have been flo ballard up front. she would have nailed it.
-
this production sounds like it's after HDH left motown; they could not have supervised this recording!! this sucks compared to marvin gays
-
Just because something has a softer type of soul vs funkier does not mean it is less(except for black folks). Flo is singing too loud in the background & I could not hardly hear Mary. Control and blend is important for any group and is part of being a good singer too and not how loud you are. Yes, Flo is a good singer as well.

I liked Diana on this. It showed her versatility. She had a certain soul that was very commercial, but it was a little more soulful here. I don’t know why everyone keeps comparing Flo and Diana.Diana was the lead singer and Berry was going for a certain sound for the Supremes and all of them had to fit into it to some degree. Flo had a certain funky soul that would not be very commercial for the group. Diana was more versatile.

Diana did very well on this song & soul is, indeed, Miss Ross' forte, as demonstrated on her version of the gospel classic "Ninety-Nine & A Half". However, many of the Motown producers would tone her down-for some reason-so, she'd always sound overly "clean", but, when they'd let her do her thing & cut loose, she's in a class all her own.:)

The Supremes sang backup on Marvin Gayes "You're A Wonderful One" also. They did the back up on (well Mary wilson did) on Smokey and the Miracles "Mickey's Monkey". Martha & The Vandellas did Stubborn Kindas Fellow, Pride & Joy and others....
