I'm sure most everyone in here would easily get 100% [[I certainly did) since the questions are so basic, but I imagine the average person off the street might not score as well, and would find the information interesting. I will take issue on the one about who founded The Supremes since I think I would probably accord that distinction to Milton Jenkins rather than to Flo. Also, as for the J5 there's been a lot of debate as to who took notice of them first and I don't know whom to believe. Some sources state that Gladys Knight saw them on a talent show at The Apollo in 1967 and sent a demo to Motown. Other sources state that they opened for Bobby Taylor & The Vancouvers in '68 and that Bobby brought them personally to Hitsville to audition.

Needs more interesting trivia - like the Primettes' audition in front of Smokey, that resulted with Smokey only leaving with their guitarist, perpetually.
