To date The Supremes are the only AMERICAN group to have five consecutive chart toppers. The Beatles & The Bee Gees each have 6 consecutive #1s. The Supremes would headline at one of America's top venues, the Copacabana in Manhattan. The critics loved the show. The Supremes once again had catapulted to the top of another history making move--being three black girls didn't matter. America, & the world, didn't think of them as sounding black or sounding white. We were mesmerized by their sound, presence, & showmanship. The Supremes weren't done charting yet as they still had SEVEN more #1 hits to go!
