hi rich just saw your reply to a true legend you know something in this country there's to much misery and politics if we had a morning show and had more celebrity's giving up there musical time just entertain us and cheer us up it would be worth geting up for just to get cheered up in the mornings never to much never to much.
@@MarkusWCW2K19UniverseVideos This video is not from 2011. Luther Vandross died in 2005. This performance is likely from the late 1990's when few people had cell phones. You can see a few people in the audience with camcorders which were popular in the 1990's.
Yes,I watch and listen to music videos all the time,and I can say Luther is right at the top of his game here Incredible artist,natural talent with no gimmicks!!!
80's had the best music for all genres. Music industry is no longer the same. The vibe, crowd, songs, so much filled with life and love. This was 19 years ago and STILL sounds good. I was so glad to attend Luther's concert at Radio Music City Hall, before he became ill and passed away. A true artist. A legend who is truly missed.
Amen to that! I wish I could've been there to see it live. I saw Brian McKnight on concert in Sacramento, CA and he did a tribute to Luther by singing this song live. I guess that's the closest Ill get to it.
He sure knew how to entertain his ordinance and I really got a lot of love with laughter, when he did his few minutes of dancing, that was great. RIP MY BROTHER WE MISS U
Tinker Barfield on bass laying those strong licks. Brother was born and raised in Brooklyn and was throwing down on his vintage Red P-bass before he was ten years old. Marcus Miller caught this performance at the Garden and said at the time, this is one of the best bass performance he has witness. High Praise!!!
@@Chazza534 haha yes I Turned 20 recently! I can confirm I am still bumping luther and his classics!🤣 Thanks for bringing me back to this comment, gave me a good laugh 😂 old school for the win!!
The bass player is Tinker Barfield. Credited with a few tracks on Luther's album. To name a few Til My Baby Comes Home, Bad Boy Having A Party. Tinker is Marcus Miller's bass inspiration from his youth.
I tell you the truth those people were on A ride of their lives listening to the souls found Luther Vandross his songs will live on forever r.i.p Mr Vandross
Luther Vandross, was a game-changer. Before him, there were a ton of really, really good black, male vocalists, that became household names, by virtue off there on legendary status..Al Green, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, Teddy P, Barry White and Smokey R, just to name a few. But Luther's slant on how he arranged ballads and merged r&b with pop, wasn't done by any other male, not named Prince or Stevie Wonder. And every step of the way, it never looked like Luther was trying too hard. I call him "The Sorcerer of Soul", because he did things with his voice, that no other human could pull off.
Possibly the most gorgeous, sensuous and luscious voice of his generation! A true God-given and blessed voice! Sherrick was also a treat, albeit a short-lived one! Colored singers rule! Love!
THE BASS IS KILLING THIS....AS WELL AS LUTHER AND HIS BACK-UPS..
Love how the entire crowd is just vibing. Rest in peace to a true Legend! 🙏❤️🙌

No cell phones so people could actually enjoy the performance. And what a performance! Luther was one-of-a-kind!

There weren’t smart phones in 2011

Incredible artist,natural talent with no gimmicks!!!
Absolutely zero 'auto tune'. And not a cell/mobile phone in sight.
80's o cells, autotune, pure talent
Greatest Of All Time. There will never be another like Luther Vandross.
the whole crowd is a vibe 🗣🗣🗣

Look at everybody all happy and groovin! Man, this is what it's about.
Luther sounded just like his CD's live!!! This man could truly sing!!! RIP Luther
Best days. No stupid cell phones with lights on
the king R&B,the best male voice of the time!!
Amen to that! I wish I could've been there to see it live. I saw Brian McKnight on concert in Sacramento, CA and he did a tribute to Luther by singing this song live. I guess that's the closest Ill get to it.
Donny Hathaway is #1 bra but my guy Big Luther is 2nd

@Francis M Donnie Hathaway has re-entered the chat.
Everyone is best
Even live, Luther sounded perfect! Look how happy his audience is. Such an amazing talent....so sad he's sadly passed....
NOW THIS IS MUSIC!!
I would trade all this new music to have Luther Vandross back. The joy in the audience is everything.
That bass player is tearing it up
mrpicky510 For real tho!!!! Ok
MARCUS WOULD BE PROUD
Dunkaroos who you tellin?
Hes not MM but he jamming
Jerry Preston
He did not miss a beat when he stopped dancing a said part 2. The man is forever smooth as silk. R.I.P. Lutha🙌🏾
What a loss
And a huge gain
@@lisacipriani6105 they turnin up up there
This is the best version of this song ..
Werd!!!!
Without no doubt. The 5 chords opening are heavier than on the record. Killin it
I saw Luther live in the fall of 2000 in Philadelphia and words cannot express the uplifting experience of him and his back-up singers and musicians
Such a huge talent, he's right on top of the groove and the effortless killer vocal...man, there's no one to match this fella.
He has so much class.
STILL AMAZING in 2022!
Not all that many performers can make folks as joyous and carefree as my man Luther......we are all lucky to have lived some in his time.
Gotta love the bass players, they are always in their own worlds. Look at the bass player here, dude is killing it .. so groovy !
Not only was this gem of a man one of the greatest vocalists ever, he could move as well, rest well L.V.
No auto tune...live and perfect
The greatest male vocalist the good Lord ever gave us ! RIP LV...

Yes my sentiments exactly..all of these great musical legends left us a rich treasury that turned the world upside down didn't they???
Sam Cooke
There's so many you could have added to this list. But, of recent history, the heralded and uncompromised Marvin Gaye truly is missing.
My first time seeing this and I want to cry. I miss him so much. His voice and sound system, musicians, everything was on point!!!! RIP Luther
LEGEND. MISS HIM. MICHAEL,WHITNEY AND PRINCE also. The 70's and 80's.
Look how happy all those folk are :') ah I love Luther Vandross to bits!!
Bass on this song is so awesome
this public seems so happy to listen to him a great moment of comunion with the music tks Luther god bless you
Never gets old!! ❤️❤️❤️🔥💯🥰
Luther dancing is gold
At 1:59 Luther is enjoying the crowd as much as they are enjoying him!
One Of the Best Vocalist Ever in Music History!!!! Without a Doubt my G!!!!
The truly good ole, wonderful ole days with Luther singing and making everyone happy.
He sure knew how to entertain his ordinance and I really got a lot of love with laughter, when he did his few minutes of dancing, that was great. RIP MY BROTHER WE MISS U
+priscilla chambliss I was stunned that Luther danced in this performance. I had never seen him dance in any of his shows or videos before.
I never saw him dance, either, and that is why he rocks
This kind of music is a like a celebration. Absolutely love it.
We miss you Luther!!
MUSIC... I MISS YOU LUTHER.
I loved Luther❤ No auto tune..just pure talent and soul. RIP Luther❤❤
They don't make um like that anymore. Love Luther!

Those ladies loved Luther. And to be true, he totally deserved it. Cheers!
Every time I listen to this version with Tinker Barfield on Bass...Man...Nasty!

Music unites people together. This is why artists are important. Good artists will influence people in a good way
I genuinely think this man has a god given talent
Killer bass detect! Top!🎸

You are right!
Incredible performance. The bass guy is so on point! And as always, Luther rocked that stage.
That was everywhere and every night he performed...
