Why the disdain for this tribute group?

I believe this is the Supremes tribute that George Solomon put together.

There is a video of them doing "Sam You Made the Pants Too Long". The one girl really looks like Diana. I wish I could have watched the video without the vintage video effects, so I could have seen their appearance in greater detail:

Very interesting!

I know George posts here from time to time, so perhaps he can talk more about this tribute act. I believe the underlying idea with the "Reflections" tribute show is to re-create a Supremes experience. The ladies resemble The Supremes, especially the one playing Diana. They don't try to pass themselves as The Supremes. It is a tribute act, not a fake/bogus group like Karen Raagland's. I think Mary Wilson also endorses this tribute show.

Here is another video [[featuring a different lineup of ladies):

Seems to be one of the better tribute acts out there.

Wow!! She does look like Diana. I think they are fun and they are very upfront about being a tribute act so I wish them well.

To me, there's nothing wrong with a clearly identified tribute act. I hope that when it is advertised, it is clearly labeled: A TRIBUTE TO THE SUPREMES" so that audience members know who they are paying to see. In fact, it's a kind of complement that 50 years later, audiences enjoy a 'reminder" of the classic girl group.

I just didnt like what I saw--though she put her hand out well to Stop in Name Love and looks like Diana.

This is the best Supremes tribute act because not only was it created and crafted from a Supremes expert, George Solomon, but the ladies sound great and represent the ladies in a very loving way.

I didn't have anything to do with the group that did Sam You Made The Pants Too Long. But they did a good job with that number.
I know there are many tribute shows out there. The show that I am involved with is Supreme Reflections. Yes, it's a very loving and informative tribute and in no way ever claims to be the Supremes. The show has played Vegas and also in Cape Cod with a symphony orchestra. We did a radio show with Mary and she was extremely supportive of the show and the ladies in the cast. I wish I could have devoted more time to the show last year but have been so busy with the Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons tribute Oh What A Night! More Supreme Reflections dates coming up in the next few months, and I'll be hosting the show.

Supremes tributes are ok.

Good to know that Golden Halo Award winner Mary Wilson doesn't have a problem with the Supreme Reflections tribute act.
