Diana Ross: 1980s albums reissued with comprehensive bonus tracks

diana_redhot

Diana Ross‘s albums recorded during the RCA/EMI era (1981-88) have been expanded for reissue later this year.

Soul, funk and disco reissue specialists Funky Town Grooves have remastered (from the original tapes) all six albums from the period in question, and the releases will either take the form of expanded single disc editions (Why Do Falls Fall In Love, Silk Electric, Ross) or two-CD deluxe editions (Swept Away, Eaten Alive, Red Hot Rhythm and Blues).

The label also appear to have done a decent job in tracking down the various edits and remixes of the singles with multiple versions of virtually every 45 making an appearance. Full track listings are available below.

All these reissues will be released on 14 October 2014.


Why Do Fools Fall In Love (Expanded Edition)

Silk Electric (Expanded Edition)

Ross (Expanded Edition)

Swept Away (2CD Deluxe)

Eaten Alive

Red Hot Rhythm and Blues
