The circle of backup singers becoming Grammy performers/ winners continued with Lisa winning only 4 years after this performance and Luther was the 1st person she thanked.
I think Lisa released two albums. The first one was a commercial success. She later said the pressures and demands of being a solo artist were too much. In an interview, she stated that she regrets not pursing her solo career when she was a hot commodity. Luther laid the ground work for to succeed. He produced song on her album and also let her the opening act on his world tour in the early 1990’s. Lisa Fischer is a true talent. I’ve seen her many times performing with Luther
First live concert ever was Luther Vandross at Kings Dominion in Virginia. Talk about starting at the top! Love and miss you Luther. Never be another like him.
I saw Luther Vandross twice Greensboro NC , fantastic show , I'd have to go into deep at the present moment who was even with Him, Then Raleigh NC, Walnut Creek amphitheatre, My wife called Me crying Luther Vandross has passed away 😌 one of the best voices ever ❤❤
@@SeanWarren ...thank you for posting this...i too had it on VHS when this aired....i loved that LV was so slim and trim wearing that exquisite tux and singing HIS FAVE LV SONG.....mine too....and of course it was effortless.....
@@SeanWarren ....and i always wondered whos' TUX he was wearing.....he always had great taste in clothes...and i suspect this was BEFORE he became friends with....GIANNI VERSACE....did you know he designed a whole SET...and all the COSTUMES for one of LUTHER'S TOURS....i remember everything with GOLD and WHITE....
@@SeanWarren ... yes they knew each other.... when GV ...OPENED HIS FLAG SHIP STORE IN NYC .. there was a BABY GRAND PIANO... AND ELTON JOHN .. SPONTANEOUSLY BEGAN TO PLAY ..AND LUTHER JOINED IN .. AND THEY SANG MOTOWN CLASSICS...IT WAS THE TALK OF THE TOWN... AND OF COURSE....GIANNI WAS THRILLED....
This is when being classy and talent mattered in music. Total class act.
Its a shame what they promote to the young people these days. I try to support any artist that is saying something positive.
Yeeeeeeeeees 🤩
Preach
Definitely ❤
My wife called ME at work crying telling Me Luther had passed
Luther is one in 1 million. Incredible voice, and that smile. Love and miss him but still playing his music every day. Never forget my Luther❤️❤️❤️

I wish she was willing to come out and be a lead vocalist like Luther did with the vocals she had but she didn't want to
Do you know who the other backup singers are in this video?
Maybe Ava Cherry ?@@AfrahSings
@@jacobusp.1544 ...it's AVA and KEVIN OWENS.....

Sound quality needs work android.
Android has nothing to do with it. It was recorded back on VHS in 1987. The tape was old.
