I never realized that Dirty Looks is actually a [[Motown!) cover... recorded by Warp 9 on their 1986 Motown album Fade In, Fade Out:

Jaap - I didn't know that either. Really interesting. You've now sent me on a hunt for Warp 9. Ross' DIRTY LOOKS has always been one of my favorites. A great tune by Golden & Scher.

This is a fascinating thread. Great to find the two links to this recording, which should have received much more exposure. I like both versions!

Good reproduction of her sound on the recorded version. It should have been a bigger hit but by this time, Diana was well over 40 and "old" in the radio world; just like happened to the Supremes by 1973. Too bad. A great song.

....and the fact that it was released several months after "Dreamgirl, My Life As A Supreme" didn't help matters.
