The Supremes "Come See About Me" on Shindig 11/64

[@richardschaefer4807]

First time I heard this song I was laying on Venice Beach checkin' out the scenery......Ah...those were the days.

[@DetroitLives313]

Mary Wilson is gorgeous and has the moves!!!

[@SpeegBJ]

I just wrote the same thing up there about Mary...then saw yours....:-)

[@happyme6153]

amen

[@emilbell1621]

That Mary Wilson always did it for me. Loved her. What a beauty.

[@johnjarou2357]

+Emil Bell agreed. they were all good looking but mary was the prettiest.

[@kylesummers2462]

To me Florence was prettiest

[@ronmurphy8863]

MARY WILSON WAS A GODESS !!!

[@derricknregina]

Emil Bell she was the prettiest one

[@stephenbruce4052]

I'm worthy xo

[@jivinman]

Florence Ballard was THE Supremes for me.Diana Ross and the Supremes only came about because of Diana's involvement with Berry Gordy.However the 3 together were great.Once the line-up changed,so did they.

[@helenhull609]

Amen

[@duendeguitar]

The only singing group to chase The Beatles off the Billboard charts!

[@lecuyerdooley1084]

Those girls are WORKING those fringes! True divas at the age of 20-21!

[@MA-yh2ko]

That choreography was everything. Intricate delicate footwork.

[@TGTSTS]

The harmonies and choreography here are impeccable. One of my favorite performances. Florence, Diana, and Mary were a tight trio.

[@oneputtsteven]

All three were sent to Maxine Powell's finishing school.

[@PrinceMontrey]

1:25 Flo has me rolling 😂 she was so elegant in her movements that I never peeped her messing up the footwork until just now! I like her nonchalant pout before casually finding the grove all while singing. She was a professional!

[@Texaslawhorn]

She wasn't gonna let it get her down! Flo the pro!

[@jermaphobic8308]

Mary had the most rhythm out of the trio. Even after Diane left watching any of their performances Mary is always on point with the choreography

[@TheRmjr]

Mary was in point when Diane was in the group. She is not a dancer like Mary.

[@terrionwright356]

Jermaphobic u see the way she swings.

[@ryandejuan9934]

Always! Mary carries the choreography every rip. Very skilled showmanship! I get so excited when others notice that.

[@alatherley]

Mary is just so fine. She was the best dancer of the trio. You can see by her moves she was just holding back. Check out Ed Sullivan show from 1967 where she cuts loose on stage.

[@tomjones7089]

When she was on Soul Train she danced to the max. The song was stoned love and Don Cornelius always looked like he was in love with her.

[@smallgreykitten]

When I was a kid all the girls wanted to be in girl groups like the Supremes. The girls would have all the moves down like the Supremes and sing these songs the same way. Stop in the Name of Love was a favorite because of the hand moves. Such great music, beautiful girls...

[@peterbreslaw8811]

+smallgreykitten I too wanted to be in a gril group in the sixties and I am a white man.I am saying this because I mean it.I am not saying this to be disrespectul NO.I love these girls.I use to make believe I was the lead singer and my two other friends would lip sync to Stop in the Name of Love,man what a song. blew me away.

[@mattc2094]

I just discovered the supremes this year and I’m mesmerised... they are so gorgeous and talented, still have the power to pull in fans 50 years later... can imagine how big they must have been back in the day

[@adrianconnew5309]

Florence is the superior singer of the three, man what a voice could listen to you forever. Love you Flo.

[@TheRmjr]

Adrian Connew Amen! She did have the superior voice of the three.

[@TheRmjr]

Moja Maat Do your research, not going back and forth. It is well documented that Flo had the better Voice. We aren't going to go back and forth.

[@jobucats2166]

Define "superior." Technically, from a trained voice perspective? Maybe From the perspective of popular music appeal? No way

[@monicabella7894]

Moja Maat long live DIANA "The boss" in every way! You've got a good taste in music!

[@monicabella7894]

Adrian Connew you simply understand nothing about music !!!! That's a fact!

[@SassyBratt1]

The Supremes always had a particular magical mystical aura that was hauntingly captivating. No matter the angst behind the scenes with their personality clashes..on stage they (the originals) always had an allure like a beautiful Christmas tree. Diana was the star on the tree and Mary and Florence were the gorgeous ornaments complimenting the tree. One without the other was okay ..but not near the WOW of the 3 together.

[@kurtsupreme]

+SassyBratt1 So beautifully stated!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@jermaphobic8308]

Perfectly stated. Showing the importance and beauty of all three together but not undermining any of their individual uniqueness.

[@weedermann]

+SassyBratt1 Don't see why it had to be Ross as lead singer.

[@kurtsupreme]

+Tuff Bud Initially, I loved all 3 ladies of the original lineup. Diane had a unique voice and a glamorous and charismatic stage presence. I had no problem with Diane as the lead singer. I was dismayed by the manner in which Diane was pushed down our throats at the expense of the chemistry that defined the group when all 3 girls were showcased. I wouldn't even have resented Diane so much as "exclusive" lead singer if she wasn't thrust forward in the group to the extent that Flo and Mary looked like second class citizens. Once Flo was removed from the trio and HDH left Motown, I began to despise Diane and her antics. For me, the magic of The Supremes began to die in 1967 after "Reflections" was released

[@jermaphobic8308]

+kurtsupreme couldn't have said it better myself. After reflections it wasn't the same. Don't get me wrong Cindy was an amazing addition to the group. But the music went downhill after the original lineup was no more

[@thetriosupreme3]

I love this performance because it shows The Supremes performing as a Group together without Diana being posted apart from Mary and Florence!!!!

[@Maatization]

Moving Diana out front is what took the Supremes to the next level...no one had seen anything like her...she was an original.

[@Texaslawhorn]

I also think this hit is their best song that shows them as a true group.

[@ChristopherR96]

I love the way Mary starts dancing at 1:12; so precise and rhythmic with her footwork and arm and wrist movements along with her hips as well.

[@SUGAR_XYLER]

my 96 year old grandmother is dancing it's not her meds this time

[@张林峰-s9n]

This was awesome!

[@PrinceMontrey]

2:39 I love Mary dropping her octaves for a nice harmonic blend just like on the recording!

[@donaldlevin800]

My favorite Supremes song. Mary Wilson was HOT!!!

[@rjpg]

sound great live!

[@peterbreslaw8811]

+ow de Hello the wigs in these videos where did they get them from?they look wonderful.were they real hair wigs?did Mary Wilson save the wigs too?that was a big part of their image.so many wigs I hope they saved them and someone can display them in a museum.

[@tweetingsparks]

I always wondered how they can sing and remember all the choreographed routines at the same time?! That’s so amazing and awesome.

[@oneputtsteven]

They were sent to Maxine Powell's finishing school, read up on it.

[@blackcosmos]

@@oneputtsteven Maxine Powell's finishing school was no joke she stated that many of the Motown acts were rough n crude when they first arrived n it was her duty to refine n polish them up!

[@GGE47]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARY WILSON!!! MARCH 6, 2017

[@petrslivinski7481]

One of the great Motown produced Girl Groups. The original Supremes. They do a fantastic job on the song. Always listened to their songs. They sang quality songs written by top songwriters Holland, Dozier, and Holland. Bought all of their records. Too bad this sound of music is gone.

[@Eventual420]

Asha Ali is a Swedish rendition, released 6yrs ago. The Time Is Now will be the #1 search result...

[@ryandejuan9934]

One of their best live performances of “Come See About Me” … vocals and choreography were on point 💛

[@DM-rt7rk]

Mary Wilson I still love you!!! Xxxxxx❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@chanandler.bong16]

Mary is absolutely beautiful...

[@insightwisdom830]

My God what charisma and beauty.

[@nancyturner3784]

Florence had a great figure.

[@ceeceetracey9839]

FLorence was very curvy and I'm just finding out that she was 5'11 so she must've looked like a goddess next to diana ross bony self

[@thatgirlteateagang9193]

Yes she did Flo was all that when the Supremes first came out she was Beautiful An fine

[@VonBluesman]

Beautiful music. I know we had our world problems back when this was released but the world was a better place and more peaceful.

[@insightwisdom830]

The most visual artists, by far, of the 1960s, were the Beatles and the Supremes. No one can ever forget the first time he saw these two amazing, visual spectacles.

[@ncfeline1959]

Love you Flo

[@GGE47]

The first time I saw them on television.This was the first time I heard this song and I'll be doggone if it didn't become their 3rd consecutive #1 song and they made it 5 straight #1 hit songs. before it was over. I remember Flo and Mary's backs to the camera and I wondered what was that all about.I never saw that again,but it did make me take notice.

[@GGE47]

Mitchell Steven I don't have any idea what you are talking about.You don't have any idea what you are talking about.

[@GGE47]

Mary is really getting down. We didn't use that expression back then.Flo got a little out of step but recovered quickly. Love The Supremes.

[@GGE47]

ROBERT A. LOFGREN JR. Thanks

[@GGE47]

+ROBERT A. LOFGREN JR. Flo really was that pretty.She was overweight,but still performed just great.She and Mary were so synchronized.I could hear their voices louder than on the records.Flo nor Mary said anything but Diane introduced Flo as the quiet one and Mary the sexy one.They sang all of their hits up to that time including "Love is Here and Now You're Gone" which I didn't hear until the previous week on Andy Williams.They showed no signs of what was going on behind the scenes.It was just an incredible performance.A few months later I saw where Florence was leaving the group and I was just shocked.It showed a picture of Cindy Birdsong from Patti Labelle and the Bluebells entering the room.We all know that she really didn't leave,she was fired.I was really feeling down.Their name was changed to Diana Ross and The Supremes which I didn't really like.I then knew something was going on but I couldn't figure it out.

[@GGE47]

Garland English Flo was the quiet one.I left out the e in quiet.

[@cleaningtim]

They were Great ! Love their style and moves. The 60's had some great music and These Ladies led the way. I always thought the back up singers and dancers helped to make a lot of the 60's groups big, but they never got the recognition for it. Love The Supremes !

[@mikecurt2512]

Yep! :-)

[@steveedge7258]

Can't say anymore than previous subscribers have quoted. Beautiful, wonderful and so harmonious. WHAT A CLASSIC.

[@mikeyaureliush9017]

So, so sweet. What a privilege to see those beautiful women in their prime and hear their angelic voices, singing one of the loveliest songs.

[@ernestoclaudodip9671]

When they were THE SUPREMES , and this is one of my favourite tv shows by them plus the houseband is excellent , the girls sing live and the band seems to be playing behind the cameras unless they recorded the song before the show.

[@ethelstevenslove2957]

Remembering this show "Shindig", I tuned in to watch this video of the Supremes..... December 26th, 2014

[@Themaddprof]

I like the "1-2-3-4, 1-2-3 kick" choreography. Class act.

[@learnthroughmusicandlyrics6361]

This song and this performance of this song are what first got me interested in The Supremes!

[@brucepowell9252]

It's certainly one of their best. Always have enjoyed it.

[@AtlantaGymFan]

I ran out and bought every Supremes 45 the first time WLS played them - unmatched harmony and performance!

[@Lorne55]

What a great Dancer Mary Wilson shows she is in the early performances! ; & 55 years after this performance, Mary performed on Dancing with the Stars 2019! There look'n like a healthy & beautiful 45 year-old too on DWTS....

[@SpeegBJ]

Mary had the best moves. No better hair in the world, all 3. No better. The fringe is sooo fine!

[@speddygonzales5]

I agree, Mary was working them moves. Love the Supremes

[@copanationdie]

Only these three girls really know what happened in the group.

[@ceeceetracey9839]

Not true

[@TheRmjr]

OMG! What an awesome performance! So elegant and classy! Truly ladies of the stage. And Mary worked that fringe!

[@GrannieLee]

smooth and angelic...beautiful voices

[@JimmyDitton-et3zb]

One of my favorite songs love this performance of them

[@TonygMus2]

Flo 21, Diana and Mary 20, they look much older😀! Love The Supremes

[@timinla64]

Diana always sang like a bird. But Mary sure was eye candy in these early clips!

[@martyrobinson4474]

***** - you obviously don't know what the phrase "to sing like a bird" means ... you might want to google such things before you make an ass of yourself.

[@martyrobinson4474]

***** - Underachiever, I see ...

[@Maatization]

this was the performance that I fell in love with them... I was 13.

[@Texaslawhorn]

This is my favorite live performance of this classic!

[@Musicblue22]

A nice smooth step and a treat them performing this in the original studio key, I always wondered how they would sound live singing it this way

[@mrjoshjones1]

This has always been (in my opinion) the very best Supremes line-up maybe talent & visually wise, after that, Jean Terrell, Mary and Cindy Birdsong's melodic voices are very hard to top.

[@57highland]

+mrjoshjones1 Yes, Jean did a great lead vocal on "Up The Ladder To The Roof".

[@woodie62]

Mary, so lovely!!! ♥♥

[@anisebae2652]

Sometimes I wish I could've been born during this during the 40s, I could've been a famous Motown Singer

Love, Love, Love....Thank you for your awesome music that I cherish all of my life..

[@chanandler.bong16]

Mary Wilson was the most beautiful to me and this video has always been a my favorite since I first watched it. So saddened by the news of her passing. We will miss you Mary.

[@boofusdeldooofus]

That honey sweet voice of Florence Ballard.

[@ceeceetracey9839]

One of those rare moments when Diana Ross isn't doing all that nasal singing. Sounds good

[@Texaslawhorn]

Good and soulful!

[@ceeceetracey9839]

@@Texaslawhorn they sound amazing on this mellower version of "Come See About Me" which is actually probably my favorite of their Number 1's, running neck and neck with "Keep Me Hangin On".

[@laurah6845]

RIP Mary and Flo 😥❤

[@raffaojeda]

Florence is very cute and has great voice.

[@raffaojeda]

..and Flo was so down to earth, she was such a sweet heart

[@j0eX]

The rhythm of their songs always reminded me of girls skipping rope in the South Bronx..my youth.

[@lawrencejosephjenzen]

I did not like the Supremes when Florence Ballard was fired from the group. I know Florence Ballard had the soprano voice. they did not need the Andantes for back up

[@Maatization]

I didn't notice she was gone. I loved Diana who gave the group the personality and glamour and transferred it to the other two girls but it originated in 'Diana. They needed the Andantes when Flo and Mary were two lazy to record.

[@youyong28]

@@Maatization They needed the Andantes when Berry was too cheap to fly Mary and Cindy in to record. Also, by this point, the background was so diluted that you couldn't tell who was singing in the background. Berry also wanted to emphasize Diana's "uniqueness". To him she was the star.

[@VELERLAW7]

The lyrics go " I'm going to keep sighing baby for you, keeps me crying baby for you." Before there ever was a Destiny's Child Or A Beyonce: There were "THE SUPREMES" & Diana Ross, thus this clip exhibits the deja vu WHY? Because "THEY ARE The Originators" Way before such successful flatterings of the many modern imitation offerings of today, and those that have come afterwards. Class, Elegance,Subsistence, & Talent Personified they are Timeless & Classic. THE ONE THE ONLY: SUPREMES!
