Search - Diana Ross :: Ross (Expanded Edition)

Ross is the 1983 album by legendary singer Diana Ross. The album was released shortly before Ross gave a pair of free concerts in New York s Central Park. The album reached #32 on the US charts, #14 on the US R&B charts and #44 in the UK. The album s highest international chart position was in Sweden, where it reached #7. The album s first single, Pieces of Ice , peaked at #31 on the US charts. Subsequent singles Up Front (US R&B #60, UK #79) and Let s Go Up (US #77) were also hits. Up Front was Re-Mixed by Jolley & Swain for the original European release.
The album was an excellent success at the time and it remains one of the best Diana Ross albums more than twenty years after. An inimitable atmosphere, an impalpable mystery surrounds the whole album. With the great production work by Gary Katz, Ray Parker Jr and Ross herself, there has always been a wonder why the album wasn't more successful upon its initial release. Ross is refreshing in the current time that more people now know of her rich and great catalogue value. No doubt, this album is one of her finest solo & RCA recordings.
