Description

This trio did just fine without Diana, till they stopped getting songs written for them and the proper promotion from Motown. Although many have criticized Jean Terrell for her lack of theatrics, wigs etc, she was an outstanding singer ! Though Diana Ross is my favorite performer, you have to hand total praise to Jean Terrell here.

"Stoned Love" is a 1970 hit single recorded by The Supremes for the Motown label. It was the last Billboard Pop Top Ten hit for the group, peaking at number seven, and their last Billboard number-one R&B hit as well, although the trio continued to score top ten hits in the UK into 1972. This single and "Up the Ladder to the Roof" are the only top-ten Supremes singles to feature Jean Terrell on lead vocals instead of Diana Ross, who left the group in January 1970 to pursue a solo career. In the UK, it was the post-Ross Supremes' biggest hit, reaching number 3 in the singles chart. The single spent six weeks in the UK top ten and five weeks in the US top ten.
