I have been a Patti Labelle fan since 1972 when she unleashed the hit single, "You Are My Friend". This live album, Live! One Night Only is her best to date. When I saw the live PBS special, after all these years, I was still amazed at her vocal range and her ability to command the stage. I belive this is classic Patti. The vocals are flawless and mesmerizing to the listener. I sang at an 1989 concert with her and she is as caring and real as this concert displays. I thought she couldn't do "If You Love Me?" any better or with any more passion. I felt God there. This rendetion brought tears to my eyes and delight to my ears. She moves into your heart like a warm embrace that makes you feel safe, loved, electrified and free. Her redition on this cut is phemomenal! She cries, she wails, she soars and dances. She is Diva! Her voice is ethereal, piercing and proud to be in the rafters! I know of no other artist, not Aretha, not Jennifer Holiday, not Whitney, not Mariah nor any other to compare. Patti is Diva Incarnate. She is the consumate performer. The beauty and depth of her voice mirrors the warmth and power of her soul. This DVD, Live! One Night Only is not to be missed! ~ William G. Henderson
