Description:

"So Amazing" is a collection of the most memorable hits from Vandross' musical legacy. Artists and songs featured on the album include Mary J. Blige ("Never Too Much"), Aretha Franklin ("A House Is Not A Home"), Usher ("Superstar"), Beyonce & Stevie Wonder ("So Amazing"), Alicia Keys ("If This World Was Mine" - duet with Jermaine Paul), Donna Summer ("Power of Love"), Celine Dion ("Dance With My Father"), Patti LaBelle ("Here and Now"), Jamie Foxx ("Creepin"), Elton John ("Anyone Who Had A Heart" - duet with Luther's original vocals), Fantasia ("Til My Baby Comes Home"), John Legend ("Love Won't Let Me Wait"), Babyface ("If Only For One Night"), Angie Stone ("Since I Lost my baby") and Wyclef Jean ("Always and Forever").

Luther Vandross was undeniably one of the most significant balladeers of our time. Since the 1981 platinum-selling release of "Never Too Much," Luther's recording career spanned over two decades and resulted in a lifetime of chart topping hits. Through the 1980's, he recorded a string of platinum albums, including "Forever, For Always, For Love," "Busy Body" and "The Night I Fell In Love." He scored his first Grammy Award in 1989 with "Here And Now." His last studio album, 2003's "Dance With My Father," received 4 Grammy Awards (including Song of the Year for the title song "Dance With My Father") and has generated worldwide sales exceeding 3 million copies. Collectively, Luther's body of work has sold in excess of 30 millions records worldwide, winning eight Grammy Awards, numerous Soul Train, BET, NAACP Image Awards and American Music Awards. Vandross died on July 1, 2005 from complications from the stroke he suffered in 2003. He was 54.

5Luther would love it  Jun 28, 2007
I don't know if the album was finished in time for Luther to hear it, but he would have loved it. Let's bow down for the Queen of Soul's "House is Not a Home"- with her bluesy-gospel styling- this alone is worth the price of admission. I can see myself standing on the concert hall chair screaming "sang girl!"

There is variety-"Anyone who had a heart" is sung along with Luther, a la Natalie Cole/NK Cole (Unforgettable), a reggae beat covers one song, a disco beat covers another. A myriad of styles abound, and you'll think "Oh, that's a cool way to redo that song!" Luther would move and groove to it, he would smile and be proud, as I am.

5So Amazing!  May 12, 2007
An absolute must for all Luther fans. I was very impressed with Usher singing Superstar and of course the haunting voice of Stevie Wonder on So Amazing is awesome. A real gem for the collection.

3Ok CD  Mar 08, 2007
This CD is not as great as I thought it would be...not all the guest artist's on this CD did justice to Luther's tunes, it would almost appear that I'm judging contestants on American Idol.

5Thanks for a Job Well Done  Jan 09, 2007
This is an excellent tribute to Mr. Luther Vandross from very talented Musicians! You could feel the respect for his music done in a way that I think Luther would have been very proud to hear.
