In 1973, Diana Ross was coming off an Oscarr nomination for her searing portrayal of Billie Holiday in the feature film Lady Sings The Blues, a No. 1 album for its soundtrack, and questions about what she might do next. Next was Touch Me In The Morning, a critical and commercial success that featured the No. 1 title track. But there was much more to the story than a blazing return to pop form, as we discover in a new 2-CD set, Touch Me In The Morning: Expanded Edition, releasing on Motown/Hip-oSelect.com. This lovingly produced reissue includes a newly remastered version of the original album, plus an entire unreleased album: To The Baby, a collection of songs honoring her newborn daughter Rhonda. To The Baby includes previously unreleased covers of Michael Jackson"s "Got To Be There" and Roberta Flack"s "First Time Ever I Saw Your Face," as well as the original title tune, co-written by Diana"s brother Arthur "T-Boy" Ross. Also newly discovered is the original medley, "Imagine/Save The Children" - songs that were split for Touch Me - plus alternate original mixes of songs intended for To The Baby that ended up on Touch Me, and an alternate mix of "Young Mothers," which previously had been issued in 1983 on Ross" Anthology. As an extra bonus, added are two songs recorded during the same timeline: "Kewpie Doll," written and co-produced by Smokey Robinson, and "When We Grow Up," Miss Ross"s contribution to Marlo Thomas" 1972 album Free To Be... You And Me. Touch Me In The Morning: Expanded Edition includes a booklet with rare photos and memorabilia, the story behind both albums, and quotes from Ross"s manager Shelley Berger, producer Deke Richards, and from Miss Ross herself.
