MOTOWN ON BROADWAY: "GIT ON BROADWAY" starring Diana Ross and The Supremes / The Temptations - Part 1 of 5







"GIT ON BROADWAY" starring Diana Ross and The Supremes / The Temptations - Part 1 of 5

G.I.T. on Broadway was a 1969 live television special produced by Motown Productions and George Schlatter-Ed Friendly Productions. The special, a follow-up to 1968's successful TCB program, was a musical revue starring Motown's two most popular groups at the time, Diana Ross & the Supremes and The Temptations. Containing primarily Broadway showtunes, the special was taped before a live studio audience in mid-1969 and originally broadcast November 12, 1969 on NBC. Like TCB, the title of the program was derived from an acronym, this one standing for "Gettin' It Together".

A soundtrack album for the special, titled On Broadway, was issued the same month the program aired. Two months after its release, Diana Ross left The Supremes to start a solo career.
