The Sounds of The Supremes, the only group of their type legally endorsed by Motown Records, and featuring 70’s / 80’s Supreme Kaaren Ragland, personify the Sound that influenced a generation.

A 2-hour show of hit after hit!

Don't miss this live show direct from the USA


I don't think so

At least they bill themselves as a tribute act and not the real thing.

That picture is over 15 years old.

Why don't you write to Universal/Motown and ask them?

Wow. Strange. And Mary Wilson is heading to England in May or so. I hope this is not another one of those reunions that always seem to crop up.

No she is not.

No she is not.

Mary gave an interview with David Ritz in which she said she was going to move to the UK in 2012, but she didn't specify what month.

I have to say Kaaren's parking lot show is better than Shantal's.

I have heard these ladies sing. They are indeed beautiful but not always on pitch and they don't harmonize very well..They've got the look, but still need some vocal practicing and better choreography....sorry~

She wants to move to London by the end of the year. However, there are a bunch of stipulations first and events that have to occur first before Mary Wilson moves anywhere. Heck, she may move back here to New York for that matter......

Apparently, she shows a letter that's about 20 years old [[when Motown WAS Motown, NOT a subsidiary of UMG). The authenticity, just like her, is very questionable.

Where does it say in any of Ragland's ads that it's just a tribute group? It doesn't - and that's what people over here in the UK are pissed off about.

What is "Memories of Motown" and who is she at 1:20?

Well, I'd go as far to say that the ONLY thing they have in common with the real Supremes is that they're three black women. The sound definitely ain't Supreme and the 'off the rack' outfits speak for themselves...

Well, the name of the group is Sounds of the Supremes not The Supremes. That would be the first clue.
