    This concert was at Wembley Arena, not the Stadium. It held about 11,500 people, and in March/April 1989 Luther performed 10 sold-out shows there as part of his 'Any Love' album tour. 'Live At Wembley' is on DVD and features songs from one of the 10 concerts. I know these things because I was at one of these shows! It was the first of 5 times I saw Luther live at Wembley Arena. He was in a class of his own - Luther was (and always will be) the greatest male vocalist I've ever heard, and to see him live was a huge privilege. Thank you for reacting to this performance, it brings back wonderful memories. Check out his rendition of this song as a tribute to Dionne Warwick at the NAACP awards in 1988 - Luther is singing live to a backing track of the studio recording, and his vocal mastery is astonishing, the audience are in raptures over it. Also, Luther's rendition of 'Superstar' live at Wembley is another showstopper 👏❤🇬🇧

    Amazing performance. One of the greatest singers ever. I like the video of House is not a Home that he did at the 19th Annual NAACP Image Awards event with Dionne Warwick reacting in the audience. He just goes off into a massive adaptation of the song and improvised sections of the song. It gives you chills how he commands the audience with Berry Gordy and Quincy Jones in attendance watching and absolutely mesmerized by how he delivers the song. The greatest performance ever!

Also he had all their costumes made by hand that cost 20k each. I just saw the new biography at the theater two days ago and it was awesome!!
    He is the man! You should learn about the ups and downs of his life. I saw him four different times at different venues. Unfortunately he was a very lonely man 🫶

    I was fortunate enough to see Luther live. I’ll never forget it. Don’t know if it’s already been recommended, but check out my fav by him - “If Only for One Night”. Love your appreciation for Luther. He was a one of a kind artist.
    RIP 🕊️

    When I was 7, we rented this on VHS at our local video store so many times that we ended up buying it a few years later, lol. The song that burned into memory was Superstar. It's the song right before this one. If you thought the microphone part was nuts, the things that happen leading up to that are BONKERS on so many levels. Luther is unmatched. Superstar, it's 13 minutes long

    You know you went to his inside shows because everyone came out like they been in a sauna. He would insist they turn the A/C off,to not hurt his vocal cords

      Thank you very much.🤔🧐It makes PERFECT sense ALTHOUGH I NEVER KNEW THAT. I PERSONALLY NEVER ENJOYED THE PLEASURE OF SEEING LUTHER VANDROSS PERFORM LIVE AND IN PERSON. AFTER GROWING UP FALLING IN LOVE WITH MY GRANDDAD, MY UNCLE, MY SISTER AND BROTHER SINGING IN THE HOUSE....VERY WELL I MUST ADD. WDAS WAS ON ONE DAY WHEN I GOT A WHIFF OF HIS TRACK "SEARCHING" ON WDAS FM WITH MY COUSIN CARL HELM AD LIBBING AND TALKING OVER THE MUSICAL PORTION OF THE RECORD NEAR THE END. THIS WAS AROUND 1980 OR 1982 I THINK?!🤔🧐🙄 THERE WAS NO TURNING BACK. BECAUSE I WAS BUILDING ALREADY WITH SAM COOKE, DAVID RUFFIN, MARVIN GAYE AND I HAD A ODD NICHE FOR NAT KING COLE. ANDY WILLIAMS LED TO BIG BAND MOMENTS. THAT LED TO CABARETS AND LAWRENCE WELK. I STARTED SEARCHING "FOR A SOUND OR A SINGER" A HE SUNG A PIECE FOR "THE ELECTRIC COMPANY" CHILDREN'S SHOW.....I BELIEVE. I KNEW SAW HIM ACTUALLY PERFORM BEFORE HE WAS SINGING ON A 4PM TALK SHOW? MAYBE MERV GRIFFIN? BECAUSE IT DAMN SURE WASN'T OPRAH WINFREY?💀
