"The double-disc set Anthology contains all of Diana Ross' solo hits for Motown Records, from "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" to "Endless Love." It's a comprehensive collection, featuring all of her biggest hits plus many important album tracks and smaller hit singles. Since it doesn't delve too deeply into obscurities and contains all of Ross' most popular songs, Anthology is the definitive career compilation for fans who want more than just the standard cuts but are unwilling to explore the original albums or invest in the box set."

Twee albums op één CD. "Diana" uit 1980 was een Chic-productie, vol nummers van Rodgers en Edwards. Hun hand is goed hoorbaar in hits als "Upside Down" en "My Old Piano". Een jaar eerder had ze een CD gemaakt met een ander beroemd schrijvers/producers-duo: Ashford & Simpson. Ook dit album bevat vooral materiaal dat geënt is op de disco-dansvloer.
"On July 21, 1983, Diana Ross put on a concert in New York's Central Park. During the opening, a torrential downpour soaked the crowd. Ross continued on until the show was shut down due to safety concerns. The next night, she was back again and put on a landmark concert. For the first time, this show i sreleased on DVD now. Not only do you get the full show of July 22, but also included is all of the July 21 show, until it was shut down. Directed by Steve Binder, who originally worked with Diana when he directed 1964's iconic concert film "The T.A.M.I. Show", when Miss Ross was still with the Supremes. Recalling that fated first concert, Diana remembers: 'The entire park was wall-to-wall people. It was an electrical storm. It was alive with energy; an incredible moment of my career. The rain came down like sheets of shimmering glass. I wasn't afraid, even though many were afraid for me. I just wanted the thousands that came to the performance to be safe. My dream came pouring down.'" (Music-News.com)
"An impressive four-dozen previously unissued selections from the seemingly infinite Motown archives. Of course there have been similarly copious collections of vintage Supremes' rarities. So one could easily presume that these 48 tracks are scraping the bottom of the proverbial barrel. Luckily, there seems to be plenty of quality leftovers -- some of which weren't even known about until the set's producers began their research. Taking a chronological approach, the album begins with "(You Can) Depend on Me," one of the very first sides to have been recorded by the ladies. The number was co-written by Motown founder Berry Gordy and William "Smokey" Robinson, and actually predates the vocalists' "official" Motown signing. There are various Gordy writing contributions included here, from the days before Holland, Dozier and Holland began churning out the the Supremes' chart-toppers."(Lindsay Planer, Allmusic)
Geremasterde heruitgave uit 2001 van duettenalbum uit 1973 van twee van de grootste soulsterren. Hoewel beide artiesten uit de Motown-stal komen, vertoefden ze in verschillende territoria. Diana Ross was bezig zich te vestigen als diva, met een 'middle of the road'-repertoire, geschreven door brooschrijvers; Marvin was op de top van z'n artistieke kunnen en leverde zelfgeschreven conceptmeesterwerken af als "What's Going On". Maar het was eenieder al opgevallen dat hun stemmen uitstekend bij elkaar pasten én beide artiesten bewonderden elkaar. Toch past het album beter in Ross' discografie: een rode draad en zelfgeschreven repertoire ontbreken. In plaats daarvan vertolkt men songs van schrijvers als Ashford & Simpson en oude soulhits als "You Are Everything" van The Stylistics. Dit nummer werd een grote hit. Niet gek: de zwoele stem van Ross en de smachtende, kreunende vocalen van Gaye kringelen onweerstaanbaar om elkaar.
Film uit 1975. Met o.a. 'Theme From Mahogany (Do You Know Where Your're Going To') door Diana Ross, 'She's The Ideal Girl' door Jermaine Jackson en muziek van Michael Masser.
