she made some comments that new producers at motown [[like bob gaudio) were being allowed to test out their work on an established star. see if anything took hold. while that's certainly generous for the producer, it obviously didn't especially help diana.

taken by each producer's work, much of what she was producing would have held it's own, if allowed to developing into a full concept.

Touch me in the AM lp - the released one really is lovely. but they sacrificed To The Baby which i think would have been an amazing album too. and you could have still had a strong Touch lp by swapping the TTB songs with other material that was available at the time.

To the baby - again, this would have been a very strong and long-lasting concept. would have held up well IMO

Last time - i think the Bob work is what's mostly out of place here. the stuff by Ron and Tom fits a bit more with the Michael work. i think it should have been mostly a michael masser lp with a couple others added in.
