Thank you!!!!
What watermarks👏🏾😆🙏🏾 Amazing. I believe I must join. I will just have to make the sacrifice because I strongly believe in what you are doing.
No apologies needed!!! It's amazing to see such RARE footage from these amazing artist. Kudos to you and all the success you've had with TheBlackMusicArchives
Wow! 3 legendary Queens performing under 1 roof! What a treat! ❤
YEEEEEEESSSSSSS they wore that OUT and Patti acted up and Natalie showed that she was a beast too!!!! They had FuN!
I always love it when Natalie would bring 70s Natalie out real quick to remind the girls!
Yeah Nat let u know, don't sleep on her
@@BlackMusicArchiveYEEEEESSSSS when Miss Show and Prove Natalie showed up and showed out ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉
@@KevinETaylorLadies and Gentlemen, Miss Natalie Cole!!!! My, my, my... ❤❤❤❤
Natalie is not to be toyed with! 😂
Pattis vocal power and stamina is just outstanding. The sound is so full and filling. Miss Natalie has such a beautiful Jazz voice. She should have had two simultaneous careers.
She did and she took them to the same stage often. I have seen her basically give us 2 SHOWS IN 1! :) The jazz folks had their fun and then the R&B fans got to act a fool!
@@KevinETaylor I am a fan of both jazz and R&B, so I loved it when Natalie presented both in a concert that I attended in the late '90s. She was such a consummate artist in both genres. In that concert, she shared the bill with George Benson, another great jazz and R&B artist.
Patti is SUCH an icon. It can never be debated. The gag is that she is still performing.
Natalie and Patti always tear it up together and this night was GRAND AND GLORIOUS
Oh thank you for this piece of history. Patti and Natalie were cutting up on those mics, and Sheila was playing them drums and almost caught the holy ghost. I loved it.
You dare not give drum sticks to Sheila E… You never give a mic to Patti LaBelle… You don’t dare hand a ballad to Natalie Cole… Else they will not fail to tear up that stage with a fire performance!
I never imagined putting those two voices together. Wow!👏🏾
Check out them singing somewhere over the rainbow.
@@DareShowPodcast yes and ¨from a distance¨ on Patti´s TV show "out all night"!!!
I love how they turned this song into an entire church hymm! Patti is and will always be my forever favorite!
Patti Voice is Literally out of this World 🌎 💖👑🙌🏾🎤
RARE! Baby, they BOTH were belting. Nice head C6- D6 from Patti, a couple chest G5-G#(?) and Natalie belted a B5-C6 or was it Bb5?!!! They ate this!!! Just a hoopin and hollering! Natalie adds a lot of twang nasality to her belts. Patti has a more chesty coordination.
PATTI ALWAYS SLAYS
Patti’s Voice is soooo versatile! much respect!
No that would be Natalie the versatile one. Patti sings the same style on every song. She great at what she does but versatile she is not.
She really is Loved her in Fela
@@tyjuniel7103 Said by someone that obviously doesnt know her body of work. NEXT!
LOVE THIS! Thank you for all you do. I've only heard their studio version singing this - you can find it on RUclips.
However, I am confused about why people are taking shots at Patti or making competitive comparisons between her and Natalie. If you are a fan of Natalie, don't reveal your insecurities by taking shots at Patti! It's silly! THESE ARE LEGENDS! Both are masterful, powerful, and sopranos! Also, we must address the misogynoir in the "loud black woman" trope thrown as a detriment and an oversimplification of Black women artists. Patti LaBelle is not JUST loud. Those with a proper musical ear or an understanding of the voice will note the vocal complexities, the intricate note choice, and the amount of nuance it takes to sing how she sings. Natalie's voice has a more slender texture, powerful ping, excellent resonance, emotional tonality, and gorgeous range! Patti's voice is heftier in nature, with a metallic texture, penatrating power and drama. Both have a twang like no other, breath support for days, and the IT factor; thus should be completely RESPECTED.
Well said! Such a well thought opinion. Patti Labelle is one of a kind and Natalie Cole is classy as it gets. Both complimented each other.
This is true live performing by three legendary artists! All three are gifted in their own special way. It’s just so beautiful to see talented people rejoicing within the gift God granted to them. Thank you for sharing this footage with all the fans. Natalie is truly missed but her brilliance and gift to music continues to live on each passing day. Many more people are seeing just how gifted and talented she was. See you all in the Music. Blessings and Jesus Light ❤
Omg… Natalie
Yes ma’am
Didn't She go off? Love Her!!!!
I just love both the ladies. Natalie ain't scared. She I'm gonna sing no matter who on this stage besides they are friends 😊
And Mama Patti ADORES THAT!!!! She always encourage the churren to "SHINE SUGAR SHINE and do yo thang"....cuz she knows she's gonna DO HER!! WHEN FOLKS ARE NOT INTIMIDATED BY HER, SHE TAKES FLIGHT AND THE AUDIENCE IS EVER GRATEFUL FOR SUCH A SHOW!!!!
@@BigMeach1 so 👍 true.
@@BigMeach1 YEEEEEEEEEES THAT'S IT! Natalie and Patti have FUN and CARRYING ON!
Indeed!
This is why I love both of these singers and Shelia E. Everybody doing their own things and leaving us with a grand masterpiece to enjoy forever. Thank You for the post and all that you’re doing. My Ladies simply wore this performance out. My soul is jumping ❤️❤️❤️🙌🏽
Top Legends , Natalie Cole, Sheila E, and Patti LaBelle ❤❤❤❤
Money well spent my friend. I live for rare footage of Patti Labelle, and download every video I find.
I am so glad they posted this! I was there that night at the Universal Amphitheater in 1992. It was one of the best shows I have ever seen; a true labor of love by some of the best talents in the world performing that night. They performed the music of West Side Story to raise money to help fight Aids. They had the best A Team musicians backing: Elton John, Lyle Lovett, Barbra Striesand, Johnny Mathis, Eddie Van Halen, Kenny Loggins, Winona Judd, Steve Vai and many more. They later were able to go back in the studio with many of the same performers to make a studio recording. To this day it is one of my favorite CD's.
Sheila!!! Sheila E!! Beast.
November 18, 1992
This is so unhinged and I live
OMG! I remember listening to their cover a couple years ago up till now wondering if they ever did a live version. Happy to know it exists
I love how Shelia was like I can't hear the crowd. Greatness always recognize greatness.
They were in their element SERIOUSLY!!!!!!! Any nobody singing like this today.
Looord Patti & Natalie sang the hell out of this song. I would’ve been as happy as Sheila E was if I were there to hear the power of those voices live.
I'm writing this from somewhere way outside the universe having been blown away by the ferocity of this performance by Patti and Natalie. Damn that was magnificent!
What I find interesting is that individuals are always quick to say Patti isn't a versatile singer. Yet I can guarantee those same individuals have not listened to any of the following at whole.
Patti LaBelle and the Bluebelles
Labelle
Patti LaBelle
Her career spans 60 years!!! If she did not have versatility she wouldn't have made it this long in the industry. People should stop being lazy and do your homework before speaking (it won't be done).
Her longevity speaks for itself. BRAVA Patti LaBelle!!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I listen to het jazz record and it was horrible. She is not versatile. She sing every song in the same way. You never hear singing a strong straight and pretty. Its always her belting at the top of her voice. For some I
@@tyjuniel7103 So have you listened to her Bluebellle or LaBelle albums or not? You're speaking of her solo career and an album from later in her career. Instead of trying to be right or have an opinion that's not true. Do valid research. Because you're trying to make a point that isn't holding true.
@tyjuniel7103 You're lying.
The jazz album is amazing.
She sings with restraint and belts only when the arrangements call for it.
Bye-bye hater.
@@tyjuniel7103THAT'S A BIG LIE! NICE TRY THOUGH
I say same. Patti has sang and actually been fully immersed in more genres than most singers other than maybe Aretha. Not just sang but whole different music styles consistently through albums.
ATE. DEVOURED & DEMOLISHED 💯
My heffas. They were NOT to be toyed with.
P.s. we miss you like crazy Natalie ❤
Why u playing like this!!!! I’m bout to throw my phone!!! That was an entire concert and I’m here for it!!! Lol!!! Thank u so much for posting such a gem!!❤❤❤
Look at Sheila E..LOLOL..wow..she went nuts at the end! Amazing performance by these queens!
They did that!!!!!
Patti was giving me Celia Cruz with that accent and fire energy! I adore her soooooo much! 🔥♥️
Just a few more seconds and they would have made that place erupt! Patti and Shiela came to seek and destroy matched energy!! Lord this was sooooo good! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This was nice, the queens was doing there own thing singing wise but together. Patti we know is always amazing, Nat got that i can hang with anybody voice and style of singing.❤
That was Fire 🔥❤🔥🔥
That was Holy Ghost Fire Good!
What's nuts is that I hadn't read the descrip and just from the musical intro I KNEW it was "America". America is my favorite song from West Side Story!!!
7:13 SANGGG!!
I love this so much❤ its so amazing that patti stays singing up in that register. Natalie only goes up there when it's needed. I love that you don't have to sing up in that register to try to impress she goes up there when it's necessary. Aretha Franklin was like that she she would go up there on those nose when she need it but she can stay up that whole song
Very creative and exciting! Much love Natalie and Patti! Shoutout to Sheila E.
thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You're welcome!
No adequate words to express how AMAZING this is!!!

RIP NATALIE COLE … they sang that.
@ 6:00 ! Come on Natalie. G#
Wow! I never knew they performed this live. I did West Side Story in college off of this soundtrack. ❤
Omg! Thank you for posting this. Incredible. Name any singers in today’s music world that can do this. There are none. Legendary.
If those in the audience were sitting down during this performance and weren't up grooving & dancing, something is wrong with them! 'Cause this was AMAZING!!

Thank you
RIP 🌺 Natalie
Wonderful ❤❤
NATALIE COLE LOOKS BEAUTIFUL AND SOUNDS GREAT 👍👍😅❤❤LUV YOU QUEEN NATALIE 😘😘
Sheila is on fire 🔥 🎶🎶💜💜👍🏼
Natalie just killing it low key. You don’t have to be the loudest person in the room all the time to get your point across.
You don't have to be the lowest person in the room either that works both ways! 👀
@@patgorden5002 Blend and compliment is the name of the game. Or get a hot mess.
@@jessejames1956 REMEMBER.. "THAT'S YOUR OPINION" you will be alright..
@@patgorden5002 Since you responded I guess you aren't.
@@jessejames1956 you are correct about yourself, since you responded, you definitely aren't! THAT PART!
Awesome… Powerhouses 🙌🏽🙌🏽
Wow! Epic, historical.
Awesome. I have the soundtrack CD
🔥 yes indeed. You know they turned down Patti’s mic, ain’t no way Natalie’s lyric has more volume than Ms. LaBelle’s dramatic soprano. Thanks, for sharing.
Nobody turns down Patti's mic...Don't underestimate Natalie
@@glenrushing5361 I said what I said. They have been on the stage many times together, this is how we know.
@JimRockfordFiles yes...and I have seen them on the stage live. Patti's voice is so powerful, she doesn't even need a mic
Be be dry clear that Natalie Cole can hang and sang with the best of them!
And Patti is throwing down!!! She doesn’t have to compete when she’s with someone hangs with her. She and Natalie always had fun together.
Can you do a patti explained please love your videos
R.I.P. LEGENDARY SINGER NATALIE COLE 🙏🙏 MISS YOU QUEEN 😥😥❤️
They had a "Ball"
You should try to do an intetview with Patti!
I would love to. I am unsure of how to get in contact with her people to inquire.
Try reaching out to her son Zuri
@@BlackMusicArchiveher management
@7:48 Patti needed 3 swings at Natalie's one note and Natalie was still singing. ... Natalie puts the mike down like- girl this is what I do
Sheila KILLED that sh-!
4:57-5:07 i fell out in the spirit 😅
Cut it out Patti ❤️❤️
Natalie's voice became a lil pitchy at times after her drug use. Early 70s she was a beast but she would battle anyone. I still think the best duo between two powerful voices is Natalie and Whitney "I Say A Little Prayer For You" They weren't trying to blow each other ears off or who can be the loudest. They really complimented each other on that duet not a Mayweather and Oscar De La Hoya fight 😂
Ok they turned it!!!
✨💖💖💖✨🤜🏼💥🤛🏼✨💯‼️✨
lol that was great
Is it just me or am I detecting a bit of tension between the ladies? Natalie kind of shrugged off Patti's hug at 7:59 it looks like, and then started singing again, with Patti eventually deciding to (gracefully) exit stage left as if to tell Natalie "girl, you can have it!" but not before Natalie tried to chase her down 🤣Either way, those ladies were SANGIN', very cool to see!
No tension. Natalie laughs and smiles at Patti, and the hand gesture at 7:59 is something black women often do to each other that means, "you go girl!"
@@BlackMusicArchive THANK YOU! Natalie's gesture to Patti is because Patti is destroying that stage and Natalie LIVED for it, just like Patti has a fit when Natalie is hollering like YOU BETTA SANG! They are having a BLAST! No tension at all. They were sisters till the very end.
Pam and Gina reenact this on Martin 😂
Don't play with Natalie!
I love Sheila E's talent. She is the greatest female drummer ever. Patti is magnificent, but I think she's at her best just being Patti. I don't think she acquits herself well to other styles of music like Broadway, and this is not a very convincing performance for her. Natalie, however, is very good here.
I don't think you passed English literature.
You don't think she acquits herself to different musical styles???
Maybe you don't think she acclimates herself to other music genre's well enough for you.
She's sung just about every genre of music and done a great job doing so.
You're entitled to your opinion.
Some of us disagree with you.
@@victorlatimer1009 Having an opinion you don't agree with doesn't mean I used the word wrong. Not to school you, but since you tried to do so to me, check out a dictionary or maybe just read and write more. Acquit means act at an appropriate level or demonstrate a certain proficiency. I don't think Patti's vocal style is very convincing in styles outside of R&B. On the other hand, I think she's one of the best at R&B. It's just my opinion. Maybe someone doesn't think Sheila E. is a good drummer. What does it matter? Why criticize someone engaging in totally civil discourse?
And by the way, not only did I pass English literature, I have a degree in French literature.
Patti has a nice voice but she over sings, every song doesn’t require screaming 😂. I don’t like that she tries to out sing every time she does a duet
it wasnt like Natalie was on stage whispering. that belting was going both ways! Patti sounded amazing
She doesnt have to try. She got it like that!
Patti is just being Patti.
Thank God!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
SORRY YOU CAN'T COME UP TO HER LEVEL.😂😂😂
I enjoy Patti's singing, but I hate that "woo" she always does. It always hurts my ears.
Agreed...she is so predictable
And fantastic@@glenrushing5361
This is my favorite Patti signature move lol 😂
GIRL BYE!
You must know nothing about the black church of the golden age of gospel. A WOO was a signature soprano move that would set the room on fire.
