Blue (Diana Ross Album)
Blue, also referred to as The Blue Album, is a 1970s studio album released in 2006 on Motown Records by legendary American singer Diana Ross.
Recorded in late 1971 and early 1972, the album was conceived as follow-up to Ross' #1 Lady Sings the Blues soundtrack but Berry Gordy and Motown decided to shelve the album in order to return Ross to the pop charts with the more 'Pop' oriented "Touch Me in the Morning" single and album.
Blue was initially sold through Starbucks for the first 30 days of release. Starbucks immediately sold out of their supply nationwide. The album peaked at #2 on Billboard's Jazz Chart, remaining on the chart for several months. It logged a single week on Billboard's pop album chart, at #146.
