I would file all of those with an album artist of Diana Ross & The
Supremes. The songs are from the periods when a) Diana Ross was a
member of the Supremes, and b) when her name was called out
especially, not from the later Diana-Ross-less Supremes. If I had to
choose one name to sum up those periods it would be Diana Ross and the
Supremes (even though about half the songs weren't released under that
name).

Chris B, what was your logic in choosing a release artist in these cases?,
