Released in 1969, Together is a collaborative album by 

Diana Ross & The Supremes with The Temptations, two of 

Motown’s most successful vocal groups. Following their

 popular television special and hit duet single 

I’m Gonna Make You Love Me, the album blends soul, pop, 

and Broadway standards into a polished late-1960s Motown production. 

Together remains an important release in Motown history, 

marking one of the final projects featuring Diana Ross with

 The Supremes while showcasing the label’s crossover ambitions.
