 | TopPopper Member since Mar 2013 2612 Points | Can some thought be given to which discographies LPs by "Diana Ross and the Supremes" should appear in. At the moment they have their own one (of course) and also pop up in Diana Ross's list. However they don't appear in the discography for The Supremes. Here's an example to illustrate the problem: "Diana Ross and the Supremes 20 Golden Greats". More than half the album (songs like "Baby Love" for example), were "Supremes" songs when they were hits. But when later issued on the group's compilation LPs, like this one, they were invariably re-credited to "Diana Ross and the Supremes". For me, these recordings are far more part of the group discography than her solo one. |

 | Juke Jules SUBS Tell me he's lazy, tell me he's slow Member since Jan 2011 4138 Points Moderator | TP - I agree it's good to see all of Name X's records appear in their discography but it takes so much moderator time and effort, and as soon as you think you've linked every combination someone adds a new one: 'Diana Ross And The Bachelors' or whatever. Anyway, just to show willing I've added all 'Diana Ross' current credits to her solo discography, likewise 'The Supremes' and 'The Temptations' and 'The Four Tops'. Now we just need a volunteer with lots of time to link all the joint names back to the solo artists, an exercise which expands exponentially :-[ Ultimately it will always be necessary to do an 'Artist' search to find all the current credits - Jules |

Just added the back cover and labels for this album and made a few corrections : MTV5, F. De Vol to “The Happening” I note that composers first names have not been added but are on the back cover, which is correct B. Holland or Holland? |

| TopPopper Member since Mar 2013 2612 Points | I'd stick with what it says on the label. To be honest, everyone interested in the group knows who Eddie and Brian Holland are. Frank De Vol was involved in scoring the film, which the song was for and sometimes he's credited on The Happening, sometimes not. Edited by TopPopper on 10th Feb 2014, 11:32 AM |
