25 Years of #1 Hits - Arista Records 25th Anniversary Celebration [DVD]

I had been looking for this DVD for my Whitney Houston collection. I enjoyed going down memory lane watching Whitney. This DVD is great! I also loved Carlos Santana, Toni Braxton, Dionne Warwick, Annie Lenox and Sarah Mclachlan. I am glad I found this DVD. Thank you to the seller Novatech for fast shipping. Item was as described.

Being quite possibly the biggest Whitney Houston fan in the world, this was the last DVD standing between me and the completion of my collection. I wish I would've purchased this DVD sooner. The Whitney performances are absolutely amazing. She proves on this night why she is the greatest voice of all time. Her stage presence is magical, her vocals flawless, and her beauty radiates from within. She revitalizes old favorites like I Wanna Dance With Somebody and How Will I Know with new beats and arrangements. She takes I Believe In You & Me and I Will Always Love You to new heights. It's amazing. While I bought this DVD with Whitney in mind... the whole concert is excellent. Barry Manilow, Aretha Franklin, Sarah McLachlan, Puff Daddy, Toni Braxton, Brooks & Dunn, Alan Jackson, Santana, and Kenny G shine on this DVD. Also being a fan of concerts on DVD, it is rare to find one this entertaining, and in which the artists sound so good. It just goes to prove that Arista's artists are truly talented. This is a must have if you enjoy good music. You won't be disappointed!

I liked it.

For all of those people who think that whitney lost her magic, they need to see this performance from 2000 (at the height of when she was supposedly in very bad shape). this DVD is excellent. the highlights are annie lenox singing why (she nails it like ive never seen), deborah cox singing nobody's supposed to be here (not televised), and the ultimate whitney houston performance.Whitney starts off by singing the best versions of i wanna dance with somebody and how will i know back to back. she looks absolutely amazing and moves like youve never seen her. she controls the stage like no other has - ever! then she sings the beginning of i believe in you and me and moves into the best performance of i will always love you that i have heard. she holds every note longer than usual and adlibs soooo well in this rendition. you honestly have to see it. some people say that her divas live version was her best, but i like this one for sure. she ends by singing a very good version of my love is your love (one of her newer songs - a multi-platinum single). she stole the show.bottom line -BUY this DVD!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you wont be sorry.

Unbelievable little jewel I did not know existed until I saw a clip on a friends CD, After that I was on the hunt to find the CD to buy as it was old. Thank God for Amazon. I would have gone crazy trying to find it otherwise.

Outstanding DVD with some great performances from the Arista stars.

stars celebrating and thrilling with their incredible performances, miss dest decade where everything was more musical and alive. Everything here is perfect!!!

This is well round dvd and if you see it get it. Get on up!!!!!

Great!

ARISTA創立25周年記念ライブの模様を収録したもの。豪華なメンバーだし、私が好きな・SANTANA・Whitney Houston・Annie Lennoxが出ているのも良い。画質も音質も良く、おまけも楽しめる。ただ、ちょっと残念だったのは、Whitney Houstonの声の伸びが今ひとつだったところかな。＃Donna SummerのライブDVDを見た後に連続して観たのもだから、＃なおさらそう感じたのだと思うけど。DIVASライブなどと同じで、豪華メンバーが出てくるからこそ、数曲だけとか、メドレーだけだと、欲求不満が残るなぁ(^^;この価格にしてはよいと考えるか。

アリスタレコードの記念コンサートです。豪華メンバーが出ており文句はないのですが、キャロルキングがコメンテーターと若干の顔見せだけだったのは残念。君の友達とかロコモーションを歌ってほしかったなあ。あと、見たらわかりますが、ホイットニーヒューストンがつまずかないか、ひやひやしました。
