Diana Ross

Nov 09, 2004 12:00 a.m. - Variety.com

Music Reviews: Her legend tainted by run-ins with the law and endless tales of an oversized ego, Diana Ross cleans the slate with a night of musicmaking that celebrates glamour and legend. With nothing left to prove, she doesn’t venture into untested waters. Miss Ross is very much captive to her own history -- a distant cry from Aretha Franklin’s summertime gig in L.A. that emphasized range over hits. Oddly enough, one of Ross’ best perfs came on a song not associated with her hit parade, "Reach Out (I’ll Be There)," the Four Tops hit penned by Holland-Dozier-Holland that Ross covered in 1971. It was a signal that she still has interpretive tools that, unfortunately, lay dormant.
