I just read that Billy Brown the father from the TV show “Alaskan Bush People” has died too.

One long article that never mentioned the cause of her death. RIP.

The Supremes - one of the best sounds of my youth. Love their music. RIP.

[A Navy Vet]

What a shame. The Supremes are my all time favorite girl group. They were part of the soundtrack to my life in my youth. I remember playing them on a 8-track in my car as I cruised Hawthorne Boulevard and others.

RIP, Mary, and thanks for the memories.

The Supremes were originally known as the Primettes. Here they are--uncredited--singing back-up.

The Return of Stagger Lee--Don ReVels (1960)

I remember a radio interview in which Ms. Wilson reminisced about going to a public high school in Detroit and how wonderful the curriculum was, including music. I wonder how many poor kids in Detroit get a first-class public high school education today. Zero is my guess. RIP.

[Fiji Hill]

My favorite song of theirs

Run! Run! Run! (1964)

[Fiji Hill]

Here, the Supremes sing about life under Communism in Red China during the rule of Mao Tse-tung.

Mary Wilson was also a good writer. During the Voter Fraud drama,I needed something light and interesting to take my mind off of Washington D.C.

I bought a used book entitled: “Dreamgirl, My Life As A Supreme”. Good reading, if a little Tabloidly.
My way of buying a big box of Fiddle-Faddle Caramel Corn.
I was in need of some kind of confection during that time.
This filled the bill.

76? Was she 10 y/o in her hayday?

[TalBlack]

TWELVE number ones! That’s not at all easy to do.I didn’t realize they had that many. I remember wondering when they broke up why the press were making such a big story out of it.

The Supremes were before my time, but thanks to my parents I grew up listening to them anyway. Hope she is singing in Heaven now.

[LottieDah]

May she rest in God’s heavenly peace.

She was a superb talent who initially resented that Diana Ross became the headliner of the group. Then she figured out that life was easier for her being just the backup singer. Flo Ballard, the other of the original Supremes, died young after battling addictions.

I was a big fan of the Supremes. I saw them live in concert at Hara Arena in Dayton, Ohio.

[fieldmarshaldj]

One of the best singing groups ever. RIP to Miss Wilson.

[Myrddin]

I enjoyed the Motown era of music. The Supremes were definitely a quality outfit. Sad to see another of the great performs pass.

[TwelveOfTwenty]

RIP.
