And Supreme they were. Did you know The Supremes had 12 #1 hits? They had 5 #1 hits in a row at one point. They had a #2 and several other top twenty hits. They went head to head with The Beatles and Rolling Stones at the height of the British Invasion and knocked the Brit lads from the top of the charts several times. And, as strange as it sounds, they NEVER won a Grammy. Not ever.
As Motown celebrates it's 50th anniversary Monday with a worldwide celebration, The Jersey City Desk wants to help celebrate a great great American sound. We're gonna kick things off with The Supremes and the timeless classic 'Baby Love' from 1964.
Brilliant Motown night, Johnny. Well done!
