Touch Me In The Morning Expanded

[Ollie9]

Although TMITM is an excellent album, i do prefer disc 2 of the expanded release, complete with alternate takes and songs that were recorded for the intended "To The Baby" album.
I love the alternate version of "My Baby [[My Own)", finding it looser and a little more soulful. Diana's ad libs are great. "Imagine" leading into "Save The Children works really well and i think should have been left as was originally intended. "To The Baby" is a brilliant vocal from Diana and one of those songs that just gets inside your head. It should definitely have found it's way on to the original lp. "Kewpie Doll" and "First Time Ever" fit the soulful dreamy quality of the other songs.
The only song i am not enthralled with is"Got To Be There" which sounds unfinished and lacks the passionate intensity of the Michael Jackson version.
I believeTMITM should have been a double album release. Diana's own "Songs In The Key Of Life"
