The '70s Anthology


The '70s Anthology is a 2002 two compact disc set of many of the songs recorded by the 1970s groupings of The Supremes. The set features 42 tracks, of which 10 had never been released, and 6 were appearing in extended or unedited forms.
The set features a 24-page booklet with liner notes written by Mary Wilson, who was the only member in every version of The Supremes through 1977.
Probably the most notable of the new material are the songs "Oh My Poor Baby", "Make It With You", "I'll Let Him Know That I Love Him", "Never Can Say Goodbye", "Walk With Me, Talk With Me Darling", which are all from the shelved Promises Kept album. Instead the Floy Joy sessions, supervised by Smokey Robinson were recorded and released in 1972.
