Whitney Houston – Live in New York 1994! (‘Bodyguard’ Tour)

Friday, December 30th, 2011

Once again, Special Kev you delivered!

 

FULL CONCERT! (video for this one; NOT just audio) Amazing concert. Fan-recorded video that is shaky/dark at the beginning but the cameraman gets it together after Whitney comes out on stage. Good audio. Whitney sounded stellar and I loved her look (the hair & the dress. She looked like a beautiful vixen Goddess when she emerged onto the stage). Another one of my favs!

Whitney Houston – Live in Paris 1998!

Friday, December 30th, 2011

Thanks to Special Kev of Classic Whitney!

 

FULL CONCERT! Whitney sounded good. It was also great to hear her sing “So Emotional”, “All The Man That I Need”, “Nobody Loves Me Like You Do” & “Queen Of The Night” in her “Late 90s” voice. She didn’t sing any of them at all during the MLIYL tour, did she? Don’t think she did. She stopped singing them like after 1997/98 I think. This was probably one of the last concerts that she had any of them songs included anywhere in her setlist.

Whitney Houston – Live in South Africa 1994!

Friday, December 30th, 2011

Thanks again to Special Kev!

 

FULL CONCERT! (video for this one; NOT just audio only) I own this concert on DVD, now it’s available in it’s entirety on Youtube. As a continuous, uninterrupted viewing experience (I say that because I know there are many SEPARATE performance clips from this concert up on youtube). Amazing concert…probably my personal FAV from Whit. Whitney’s stage presence & ego was just so amazing/untouchable here and she was all the “Ultimate Head Diva of the World” here, and I loved the flashy outfits/attire, her hair & dresses, and the staging, not to mention her voice (especially them head voice notes!) was all awesome.

02:00 Love’s In Need Of Love Today
05:01 So Emotional

New Documentary about the Houstons readies a 2012 release?

Thursday, December 29th, 2011

IMDB posted a new profile of an alleged upcoming documentary of the lives of the Houston family starring: Cissy Houston, Dionne Warwick, Whitney Houston, Gary Houston, The Drinkards, The Sweet Inspirations and more. More information in regards to this alleged documentary are starting to unfold as seen below, alleged screen-shots of Whitney from the documentary:

 

 

Here is a little synopsis of the film titled,  THE WONDERFUL FAMILY OF DIVAS
THE WONDERFUL FAMILY OF DIVAS is a look into one of America’s most musically influential families: the Drinkard family, whose tradition of gospel produced such luminaries as Dionne Warwick, Cissy Houston and Whitney Houston.
Featuring performances, never-before-seen footage and exclusive interviews, the documentary traces the history of song in this talent-infused family and celebrates the spirit, the strength of family, and the power of gospel music to heal, to transcend and to entertain. Starring: Whitney Houston, Dionne Warwick, Cissy Houston and the Sweet Inspirations, The Drinkard Singers, Roberta Flak, Gary Houston and The Drinkard Singers II.
Brought to you by veteran documentary filmmaker Gary Keys, THE WONDERFUL FAMILY OF DIVAS honors a family that has helped to define the culture of popular music and has influenced generations of music lovers.
From Classic Whitney:
One of the sources says production started in Jul 2010 which was just after NBL and when we didn’t see Whitney for a minute, it was filmed around that time but it says production was in 2011 (I would imagine the early part of ) again, when we didn’t see an awful lot of Whitney… Maybe this is what she was doing when she was mia. She looks as though she dropped an awful lot of that excess weight she had the month before when I saw her in Manchester, so I’d say it was more likely in 2011? It has the potential to be an AMAZING insight into what is one of the the best musically families (up there with the Jacksons ad the Osmonds etc).
Stay tuned as this story unfolds…
