Released in 1968, it was the first regular studio LP to display the new billing of the group formerly known as "The Supremes." It contains the singles " Reflections", " In and Out of Love" and " Forever Came Today". Also included are covers of songs made famous by Martha and the Vandellas (" Love (Makes Me Do Foolish Things)") and The 5th Dimension (" Up, Up and Away"). Also present are songs written by other famous names, including "Bah-Bah-Bah" co-written by Motown singer Brenda Holloway with her younger sister, Patrice, an original Smokey Robinson composition titled "Then", and " What the World Needs Now Is Love" by Burt Bacharach and Hal David, which Motown planned to release as a single in the spring of 1968, but cancelled. It also contains a cover of Bobbie Gentry's " Ode to Billie Joe," whose original recording kept the single #2 "Reflections" from peaking at the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100 in September 1967, and it hit #2 on Cashbox.

The album includes the final songs the Supremes recorded with their main creative team of Holland–Dozier–Holland before the three writers/producers departed Motown over royalty and title disputes.
