“It was a dream fulfilled. Three girls rising out of the Detroit ghetto, to notch 12 number one hits, and to be heralded by Dick Clark as ‘the group that put Motown on the map.’ There were indeed Dreamgirls—Diana Ross, Florence Ballard, Mary Wilson—and they reigned Supreme. ‘Where Did Our Love Go?’ was their first spectacular success. It bumped the Beatles out of the number one slot in 1964, and immediately catapulted the girls into the bright lights…There big, all right. Only the Beatles and Elvis eclipsed them” (Ebony, Oct. 1986). Listed on the National Recording Registry of the Library of Congress.
