Whitney Houston - Whitney [New SACD]

Description: Whitney Houston - Whitney [New SACD] Artist: Whitney Houston Title: Whitney Condition: Format: SACD Release Date: 2023 Label: Mobile Fidelity UPC: 196588126727 Genre: Rock MASTERED FROM THE ORIGINAL MASTER TAPES FOR SPECTACULAR SOUND Whitney did more than turn Whitney Houston into a pioneering sensation known around the world by her first name. Originally released in June 1987, the singer's blockbuster sophomore record became the first album by a female artist to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart - a position it claimed for a total of 11 weeks en route to selling more than 10 million copies in the U.S. The Diamond platinum effort also contains four No. 1 Hot 100 hits that, when combined with the three chart toppers from her 1985 debut, gave her seven consecutive No. 1 singles - an accomplishment that no other artist has accomplished. Commercially and creatively, Whitney stands on hallowed ground - especially now that the record plays with a sound that puts into perspective just how extraordinary, engaging, and vital Houston's music remains. Mastered from the original master tapes and housed in a mini-LP gatefold sleeve, Mobile Fidelity's numbered-edition hybrid SACD of Whitney invites listeners to experience the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee's pivotal album in audiophile quality for the very first time. Free of the dynamic limitations and tonal flatness prevalent on prior vinyl and CD pressings, it let's the music breathe and reveals the copious detail, nuance, and texture within the immaculately produced songs. In addition to featuring extreme clarity and immediacy, this numbered-edition reissue does wonders for the attribute that inspired more than 20 million people around the globe to add Whitney to their record collections: that inimitable voice. Houston's trademark mezzo-soprano - an acrobatic instrument equally capable of taking off on fantastic flights and unwinding for hushed meditations - benefits from the fantastic airiness and transparency afforded by this meticulously restored edition. Whitney has never sounded or looked better. The crossover landmark deserves nothing less. Issued just two years after Houston's breakthrough debut, Whitney immediately signaled the genre-defying singer's intent to continue to push ahead and expand her palette. Shot by photographer Richard Avedon, the album cover depicts an iconic image of Houston - captured with a gleaming smile, bright eyes, teased-out afro, toned arms, and a right hand that appears to wave a friendly hello - whose active, athletic profile stands in contrast to the extremely formal sit-down shot of her that graces her '85 record. The change is telling: Whitney overflows with unfettered joy, rhythmic vibes, and deep-seated emotions that forever endeared her to the hearts and minds of countless listeners - and which set the standard for the wave after wave of divas that followed in her footsteps.© DirectToU LLC.
