Motown’s Huge financial investment in launching Diana Ross solo carreer after she left the Supremes in 1970 paid off with Ain’t No Mountain High Enough, it went to the top of the US Charts. The soul classic written by Ashford and Simpson was also included together with another early solo hit, Reach Out and touch somebody’s hand on Diana Ross debut solo album.

Loke a baby’s first cry, the smell of new mown hay, the bleat of a new born lamb, the touch of a young girls lips…. somehow Diana brings the sensation of life’s beautiful moments into a heady distillation of melody and rhythm.
