Tracks like \"Upside Down\" showcase a newfound assertiveness in Ross’s voice, shifting away from the lighter style of her Supremes days, while \"I'm Coming Out\" became an anthem of joyful self-expression. The album balances vibrant funk with the tenderness of ballads such as \"Now That You're Gone,\" reflecting a versatile and confident artist reconnecting with her sound. This 1980 vinyl pressing offers a solid listen with a \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/shoptheden.com\/blogs\/news\/how-we-grade-vinyl-records-at-the-den\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eVG+\u003c\/a\u003e grade, indicating some light surface marks or scuffs that won’t overshadow the music’s clarity and energy. The 12-inch format suits the album’s dancefloor ambitions, and its focus on a small ensemble feel adds intimacy amid the grooves. For anyone intrigued by the intersection of Motown elegance and chic disco sophistication, this pressing delivers Diana Ross’s reinvention without the need for a comeback narrative. After all, not every album needs to announce itself with a headline.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003csection data-samples=\"true\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eListen \/ sample\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiana Ross - Diana\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sample-embeds\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"sample-embed\"\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/RLdBzU2X_yk\" allowfullscreen loading=\"lazy\" style=\"width:100%;min-height:152px;border:0;border-radius:12px;\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Den Vinyl","offers":[{"title":"VG+ \/ VG+ \/ 1980","offer_id":54012732834108,"sku":"DEN00000176","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0694\/9932\/2684\/files\/LTgzNzguanBlZw_682c4268-bb6a-454c-95dc-32a49df8c0fe.jpg?v=1787440262","url":"https:\/\/shoptheden.com\/products\/diana-ross-diana-lp-082226","provider":"The Den New Hope PA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
