Requested move 31 May 2016[edit]

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: moved as proposed. SST flyer 01:19, 8 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Love Child (Diana Ross and the Supremes album) → Love Child (The Supremes album) – "Love Child" was recorded while the group performed together as "The Supremes" trio, with Diana Ross lead billing. The group, whether the Primettes or whatever billing, is commonly "The Supremes" in whatever reference with the group featuring Diana Ross and Mary Wilson, with Florence Ballard and later Cindy Birdsong. Wilson and Birdsong both perform on the Love Child album with Ross. Billboard, Nielsen and Motown catalogs all count "Diana Ross & the Supremes" as "The Supremes" for recordkeeping. Compare "Diana Ross & the Supremes" to "Smokey Robinson & the Miracles" or "Paul McCartney & Wings;" in the latter examples, records with or without Robinson or McCartney's name in the billing are counted as the "Miracles" or "Wings," respectively, for recordkeeping.

The Only Mature - Serious Album By The Supremes[edit]

"Love Child" is the "only" mature and serious album by The Supremes. It is a relative, minor masterpiece of Motown and Ross' endeavor. There is not a bad song on the album and there doesn't seem to be any alternative or extended tracks available? Perhaps, why "Love Child" never had an "Expanded Second Disc" or even any additional tracts - particular - to the original recording sessions.
