At Their Best is a 1978 album by The Supremes.[4] It includes most of their singles from 1970 through 1976 and featured, at the time, two never-before released songs: "The Sha-La Bandit" and "Love Train". It was released first in the United Kingdom in February 1978, including 14 tracks. It was later released in the US in June 1978, with some of the tracks removed and the track order amended.
In 2006, the album was reissued as part of Universal's 2-CD "The Supremes: Gold" compilation of Motown hits albums, including Greatest Hits, and Greatest Hits Vol. 3.
