Early word leaking out from Harry's crew at Hip-O Select is they are currently working on Diana's 1976 self-titled album. The deluxe edition has a tenantive release date of January 2012.
"Diana Ross" was the second album to bear just her name (the first, of course, being her 1970 solo debut), and the first of Ross' albums since her debut to yield more than four hit singles. It reached #5 on the US Billboard 200 album chart, #4 on the US Billboard R&B Album Chart and the Top 10 in the UK. When it was originally issued on February 10, 1976, Diana's second motion picture, "Mahogany" was still in theaters, the Tony-award winning show "An Evening With Diana Ross" was breaking box office records on Broadway, and Billboard magazine named her "Artist Of The Century". Two singles from "Diana Ross" became #1 hits: "Theme from Mahogany (Do You Know Where You're Going To)" (also included on the Mahogany soundtrack), and the disco anthem, "Love Hangover". Two further single releases - "One Love In My Lifetime" and "I Thought It Took A Liitle Time (But Today I Fell In Love)" also charted (#25 and #47 Pop, respectively).
Alternate vocals have been found for all nine tracks of the original LP, along with previously missing verses from many tracks and tracks that have never been released. No mention has been made yet what those unreleased tracks will be, though one inclusion might be "Don't Leave Me This Way," which producer Hal Davis cut on Diana (the same backing track used for the eventual Thelma Houston release).
