Beware this one & play-test before buying. Every copy I’ve come across was pressed off centre. Probably an issue with the entire Canadian run.

"Upside Down" is a song written and produced by Chic Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards. It was recorded by Diana Ross and issued on June 18, 1980 from Motown as the lead single from her eleventh studio album, Diana (1980).
As would be widely reported later, their studio liaison with Ross was not a success. She disliked the results of their sessions and gave them specific remixing instructions; they made slight changes and suggested that if she still did not like them, she could get them remixed herself. Ross did so, reworking the whole album with Motown producer Russ Terrana to downplay the funk element and make her voice more prominent. Rodgers and Edwards were initially furious and considered having their production credit removed. They eventually decided to leave the track unedited, as the sound they used for Chic remained heavily influential on the album.

I have this solid centre version, with a generic Motown sleeve.
