Meet the Supremes is the debut album by The Supremes,
released in late 1962 on Motown. The LP includes the group's earliest
singles: "I Want a Guy", "Buttered Popcorn", "Your Heart Belongs to
Me" and "Let Me Go the Right Way". The earliest recordings on this
album, done between fall 1960and fall 1961, feature the Supremes
as a quartet composed of teenagers Diane Ross, Mary Wilson,
Florence Ballard, and Barbara Martin. Martin left the group
in early 1962 to start a family, and the other three girls
continued as a trio. Martin is not pictured on the album
because of her departure earlier in the year;
MOTOWN RECORDS 1962 MT-606
Released December 9, 1962
Recorded 1960 - 1962
COVER REISSUE 1965 MS 606
MT/MS-606 - Meet the Supremes - Supremes [3/65] The second cover had a
single picture of the three Supremes together. The cover was bluish white
with "meet the Supremes" in blue and pink. This album was released in mono
and stereo in March, 1965 as MT-606 and MS-606, respectively. Same back
slick was used as with the first version but with square Motown logo, so the
record jacket back still omits "Let Me Go The Right Way" and lists
"The Boy That Got Away" incorrectly instead of "Time Changes Things."
The record label has the correct titles. Label is the 1965 label with red,
yellow and green-grey lettering in the label name and the star to the left.
