It’s been two and a half years since the world lost Whitney Houston, and you’ve probably since then have been enjoying her many hit studio recordings. But if you’re aching to hear something new from the legendary voice, get ready to hear it like she’s performing in your living room.
Legacy Recordings are prepping Houston’s first live album titled Whitney Houston Live: Her Greatest Performances due out November 10. The two-disc set will feature a CD and DVD of audio recording and clips of her most famous live recordings and performances including her iconic performance of “The Star-Spangled Banner” at Super Bowl XXV in 1991, “One Moment in Time” at The 31st Annual Grammy Awards in 1989, and “When You Believe” (with Mariah Carey) at The 71st Annual Academy Awards in 1999.
The Houston family are supporting the project 100%, with her mother Cissy helping Whitney’s mentor Clive Davis with the track selection.
“Whitney truly had a matchless voice that not only made you feel good but made you feel alive,” said Patricia Houston, Whitney’s sister-in-law. “The Whitney Houston Estate has worked closely with Clive and Sony Legacy to make this the best album possible to honor Whitney’s memory. It certainly was a bittersweet endeavor for all, but one we hope appeals to her legions of fans worldwide.”
