    So, in terms of the GREATEST HITS AND RARE CLASSICS CD [[not the cassette), is the following a correct and complete listing of alternate tracks [[at the time of release)?

    1. EVERYBODY'S GOT THE RIGHT TO LOVE
    Alternate Lead Vocal and Mono Mix

    2. AUTOMATICALLY SUNSHINE
    Alternate Mono Extended Mix

    3. HIGH ENERGY
    Single Edit [[Released Later on "Anthology")

    4. LET YOURSELF GO
    Alternate Version

    5. BAD WEATHER; I'M GONNA LET MY HEART DO THE WALKING; YOU'RE MY DRIVING WHEEL
    Alternate Mixes

    Are there any plans to release "I Had To Fall in Love" on CD with outakes of this wonderful album that Jean did in 1977.

    Jean's album I Had To Fall In Love was released on CD in the UK in 2006 on SoulBrother Records. It is still available for 12 pounds on Amazon.co.uk! If you're in the US, it is usually less expensive to buy it on Amazon UK than Amazon US.

    This is a great thread. I had to go dig out my cassette version as my cassette deck died years ago. I bought the CD in the US and loved it. When I was living in South Africa, I found and bought the cassette. Given that the cassette was released in 1991 in South Africa, the liner note on the inside flap states "The Supremes are Opposed to the Policy of Apartheid". Kinda cool.

    I'd be interested to see the original tracklist with the seventies era tracks. Has it been posted before on the forum?

    Did George ever provide the email address to write Universal/Motown? Perhaps we fans can start a letter/email writing campaign to get releases like the Reflections EE released or a 70's L&F released?

    I didn't see it. That's often something execs don't like and either disallow or discourage [[employees handing out email addresses to the public to contact the office). I sent an email via the "Classic Motown" page. Of course, no one replied.

    "High Energy" and "Let Yourself Go" are not on the CD.

    He said he wrote for Aretha Franklin.

    Didn't Stevie record his own version of Until You Come Back To Me in 1967 that was on the Looking Back/Anthology album from the mid 70's? I doubt that he had Aretha in mind when he wrote and recorded it back in the 60s.

    Did they ever have a track listing for side 2 for the 70s . I assume the big hits.
    Surprised they just didn't change the cover art.

    I'd still like to know the contents of that original, proposed tracklist if you have it to hand.

    11 years later! LOL! [[I still have the South African cassette. The Supremes are still opposed to Apartheid!).

    THIS was the very first album that I ever bought in August 1981 when I was 12. I bought this album because I fell in love with all the beautiful faces. This is still my favorite picture of Diana Ross.

    I didn't check the date when I started reading the thread, and realized I was reading some historic when I saw Marv's name there and then Midnight Johnny's a bit later. Great information and a nice nostalgic moment, remembering to great contributors, not to mention George and Andy.
