About
The Supremes' hit single “Love Is Here And Now You’re Gone” is from their 1967 album The Supremes Sing Holland-Dozier-Holland. This song was recorded in Los Angeles, California on August 12, 1966 and at Hitsville U.S.A. in Detroit, Michigan three months later. It was written by Eddie Holland, Lamont Dozier and Brian Holland. Backed by a baroque rock sound by a string section and a harpsichord, the song describes the beginning of a breakup. Diana Ross' spoken monologues were filled with drama and emotion through the entire song. “Love Is Here And Now You’re Gone” made #1 on both the US R&B chart and the Billboard Hot 100 chart. It also made #1 on the US Cash Box Top 100 chart. In the UK, it peaked at #17 on the charts.
