Clive Davis, cel care i-a indrumat cariera lui Whitney Houston, a declarat recent ca lucreaza la un nou album al divei. Desi cantareata a murit, Clive Davis planuieste sa lanseze primul ei album live, ceva ce nu s-a intamplat cat timp era era in viata.

Producatorul muzical a declarat ca se afla in procesul de a asculta o multime de inregistrari live cu Whitney si de a le alege pe cele care vor intra pe acest album. El isi doreste ca lumea sa inteleaga de ce a fost supranumita Vocea, iar acest lucru s-a simtit cel mai bine in momentele ei live, nu pe albumele de studio sau in filme.

“Whitney never had a live album. I really want everyone to know … exactly why during her time she was considered the greatest contemporary singer in the world.”

’m going through all these recordings of her performances now, many of which I wasn’t at, such as when she was in South Africa. It’s a revelation: You really hear how astonishing and powerful and compelling she was in a way that wasn’t captured on the studio albums or in her movie performances.”

E weekendul premiilor Grammy, iar Clive Davis isi tine petrecerea anuala dinaintea celui mai important moment din muzica al anului, in acelasi hotel in care Whitney Houston a murit in urma cu doi ani.

“It’s a revelation to hear her, but listening to her, the tragedy hits you again, so there are a lot of mixed emotions this brings up.”

Moartea lui Whitney Houston a dat peste cap planurile producatorilor de la Grammy, care s-au vazut nevoiti sa creeze un moment tribut, dar pe care Jennifer Hudson l-a dus cu brio pana la capat. Anul acesta premiile Grammy se anunta foarte interesante, cu Madonna care va urca pe scena dupa o pauza de cativa ani, Beyonce, Jay Z si multi altii.
