Love Child, the fiftheenth studio album released by Diana Ross & The Supremes for the Motown label in 1968, was the group's first studio LP not to include any songs written or produced by the Holland-Dozier-Holland production team, who had previously overseen most of the Supremes' releases. Love Child shows a markedly different sound for The Supremes, eschewing the soul-pop sound for a more distinct, personal sound and lyrics.
