"The Magnificent 7" is a collaborative album combining Motown's premier vocal groups, The Supremes and The Four Tops. Issued by Motown in 1970, it followed two collaborative albums the group did with The Temptations in the late-sixties. The album featured their cover of Ike & Tina Turner's "River Deep Mountain High", which reached number fourteen on the American "Billboard" pop singles chart.

All of the twelve tracks on the album were cover songs of recent rock and soul songs, including "Everyday People", "Knock on My Door", "For Your Love". Ironically a cover of former Supremes band mate Diana Ross' 1970 debut solo hit, "Reach Out and Touch (Somebody's Hand)", is included.
