Ermitage

Hugely successful female vocal group formed in 1961, The Supremes became Motown's top act of the 1960s. Their best-known lineup consisted of Diana Ross, Florence Ballard, and Mary Wilson. In 1967, they changed their name to Diana Ross & The Supremes and released a compilation album. After Ross left in 1970, Jean Terrell replaced her as lead singer and the group reverted back to The Supremes. Inducted into Rock And Roll Hall of Fame in 1988.

The Supremes started as The Primettes from 1959 to 1960 before changing their name. They achieved great success during the '60s with hits like "Baby Love" and "Stop! In the Name of Love." However, internal issues led to changes in the lineup over time.

After member Florence Ballard was replaced by Cindy Birdsong in June 1967 due to personal struggles, Diana Ross & The Supremes continued their success until January 1970 when Ross embarked on a solo career. Jean Terrell then took over as lead singer for The Supremes.

Ermitage is one of the most long-lasting brands of the independent classical discography. Born in the mid-eighties with the publication of some vinyl records by Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli, it later released CDs of the world’s leading opera, symphonic and chamber artists.

Along with names such as *Rubinstein*, *Callas*, *Pollini*, *Benedetti Michelangeli* and *Segovia*, over the years the label’s production - distributed in Europe, Japan and the USA - has expanded to artists such as Lucio Dalla, Eugenio Finardi or Stefano Bollani.

In addition to CD titles, Ermitage offers for some years reissues in vinyl 180 grams of jazz classics (with names such as John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Sonny Rollins, Chet Baker), classical music (Italian Quartet, I Musici and others) and of Italian songwriting (Endrigo, Gaber, Jannacci,Tenco) with remarkable success. With a library of over 400 titles marketed on its own and under license, Ermitage also produces editorial series for important Italian newspapers such as Il Corriere della Sera and La Repubblica and for other editorial groups such as Mondadori,RCS,Hobby & Work.

Meet the Supremes is the debut studio album by The Supremes, released in late 1962 on Motown.
