Nice.

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

Thanks for sharing! Never seen the Master Blaster video. She loved herself some Stevie.

Side Note: She was so full of life in 1990 on the Arsenio Hall Show. What a personality!

That is what came across to me too! Jeez, she could've do a whole show of his tunes and she'd be hyped I think.

It reminded me of that photo shoot for her Greatest Hits album where they start playing Songs In The Key Of Life.

Also reminded me that Stevie spoke and sang "Ribbons In The Sky" at Whitney's funeral.

Whitney also covered "I Was Made to Love [Him]" for My Love Is Your Love.

Her duet with him on "We Didn't Know" is her best duet with another artist.
