When The Lovelight Starts Shining Through His Eyes/ Standing at the Crossroads of Love

Here's a beautiful copy of the one Top 40 hit the Supremes eked out before exploding on the scene the following year with "Where Did Our Love Go," followed by "Baby Love," etc. Note: This copy comes in a vintage Motown Records factory sleeve. The vinyl grades a strong EX, reflecting some light scuffs. The labels and audio grade Near Mint, with just a faint amount of wear and very light surface noise to note.\r\n

Note that this is one of 8 Supremes singles that Dave "My Man" Marsh includes in his list of the 1,001 greatest 45s of the Rock'n'Soul era. No one will compile the same list of favorite Supremes singles, of course, but Marsh certainly has given it more thought than most! Just for the record, here are those 8 Supremes singles and their position in his list:\r\n

    \r\n
  • Love Child (#375)\r\n
  • When The Lovelight Starts Shining Through His Eyes (#568)\r\n
  • You Can't Hurry Love (#569)\r\n
