Is this a 're recording or has Diana Ross vocals been added to the LSO version of this song ? Have you heard the recent Elvis Presley and LSO CD if I can dream I bought it for £5 and play it in the car all the time would be great to have a similar CD of Ross / Motown material

Such a project is currently under consideration.

That sounds tight. I loved how when Ashford & Simpson rearranged Ain't No Mountain for Diana, they made sure it was as dramatic as the singer herself... I wonder how Diana first felt when she heard the arrangement. It would be great to get Valerie Simpson to explain more about when Diana did it. We only know about how Marvin & Tammi did theirs... I hope we don't have to wait until someone dies to reminisce on the process of that legendary recording in 1970!

Yes, dickiemint, this appears to be a mash-up. I would be over the moon about an album-length project!
