A transitional album for The Supremes, 'New Ways but Love Stays' saw the group venturing into more mature, orchestral soul arrangements and contemporary R&B sounds. The album marked a significant step in their evolution following Diana Ross's departure.
- Recorded in Los Angeles, the album featured a more organic, live-sounding production compared to previous Supremes efforts.
- The album produced the singles "Nathan Jones" and "You Brought Back All My Yesterdays," with "Nathan Jones" becoming a Top 20 R&B hit.
- This release was the first Supremes album under the UNI Records label, following their move from Motown.
The Supremes were a landmark American vocal group from Detroit, Michigan, known for their string of sophisticated, chart-topping soul and dance-pop hits in the 1960s. By 1970, the lineup had shifted, and the group was beginning to explore new musical directions following their departure from Motown's main Tamla label.
