Singer, activist, author, fashion icon, actress, U.S. cultural ambassador, motivational speaker, dancer, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, friend, trailblazer, legend, Supreme: Mary Wilson earned her place in music history. She was the only original member of The Supremes in every incarnation of the groundbreaking group from begin-ning to end (1961 to 1977) but her story didnt end when The Supremes did. Wilson the world-renowned performer was an advocate for social and economic challenges in the U.S. and abroad and used her fame and flair to promote diverse humanitarian efforts in-cluding ending hunger, raising HIV/AIDS awareness and encouraging world peace. October 11, 2018, The Music Modernization Act was passed. Mary played a key role in explaining its importance to members of Congress and how it directly affected artists. She was always fighting for artist rights and was seated in the Senate chambers when it unanimously passed. She continued making music, performing to adoring fans around the world, wrote several best-selling books, and continued to protect artist rights and promote the legacy of the Supremes. When I think of Mary Wilson, thats what comes to me: this endless desire to pull someone else along with her in her joy New York Times Magazine Now, the late legends remarkable legacy of music is being collected for the very first time in a deluxe 2-CD set. UMe is proud to present Mary Wilsons The Motown Antholo-gy. Slated for release on March 4, 2022, in celebration of her birthday March 6, this first-ever comprehensive overview of Wilsons Motown discography presents 38 songs, in-cluding a whopping 33 tracks only available physically on this collection. The first track, Falling In Love (Live at The Frontier January 13, 1970) is available now for streaming and download, here. The Motown Anthology boasts nearly two dozen Supremes clas-sics, deep cuts, and never-before-heard songs (most in stunning new mixes) from a host of songwriters including Berry Gordy, Smokey Robinson, Holland-Dozier-Holland, Deke Richards, Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil, Thom Bell and Linda Creed, and others. In ad-dition to the worldwide CD debut of the 1979 Mary Wilson album, The Motown Antholo-gy premieres on CD solo tracks produced by the late Gus Dudgeon, the first-time-available album version of Marys new single Why Cant We All Get Along, and Eric Kuppers remix of Red Hot. And, perhaps most intriguingly, the collection premieres seven songs that have not been heard anywhere: Cant Take My Eyes Off You and Falling in Love with Love from the unheard January 13 Supremes live performance at the Frontier; Send Him to Me, If You Let Me Baby, Son of a Preacher Man, Witchi Tai To, and Anytime at All. The set was overseen by Turkessa Babich, Mary Wilsons daughter, and Jay D. Schwartz, her longtime publicist, with its 44-page booklet stuffed with rare and previously unpublished color photos. The booklet also features detailed track annotations, and ex-clusive tributes to Mary from such luminaries as Dionne Warwick, Darlene Love, Otis Williams, Duke Fakir, Martha Reeves, Claudette Robinson, Brian and Edward Holland, Paul McCartney, Rita Coolidge, Merry Clayton, Brenda Russell, Blinky Williams, and RuPaul. Secretary Hillary Rodham Clinton has penned a special appreciation, as well, for this ultimate celebration of Supreme legend Mary Wilson.
