 (7 Customer Reviews)
Although she has now been eclipsed by younger urban R&B female stars, Houston will stand as the first to bring this type of clean soul music to the world. In the USA alone, this record stayed in the charts for four years, sold fifteen million copies and spent fourteen weeks on top of the charts. It would be churlish to offer any criticism when most of the world would disagree. The immaculate production is by Jermaine Jackson, bank manager is Clive Davis and even the bathing suit on the back cover gets a credit. It is however, with all its slickness, an indispensable soul album

Whitney Houston Music Review Average Rating: (4.6 out of 5 stars)   List All Reviews Great album
Whitney Hosutons debut was a big hit in 1985, and remains the 100 best selling albums in the world. With beautiful ballads like "Saving All My Love For You" and "You Give Good Love" and "Greatest Love of All" And who could forget her first catchy pop hit "How Will I Know" All great songs from the greatest pop star EVER!!

Beautiful album
I listened to this cd since I was 8 years old. 21 years later, I still listened to this album. As far as I love her second album, "Whitney", this is cd is better than all her new materials of the millenium. Because this album is great, it brings me back to my childhood memories. My favorite songs are with her duet with Jermaine Jackson on "Take Good Care of my Heart" and "Nobody Loves Me Like You Do". Also, her duet with Teddy Pendegrass on "Hold Me". Last, my ultimate favorite song is "All At Once". There are no words to describe how beautifully melismatic her voice sounds in every song she sung. It's just beautiful.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No Excellent Debut Album
This album is great. It is especially great because Whitney is new talent. New talent making an album like this is very acceptional. Whitney is a very good singer and recording artist in her right. This album will be cherished as the greatest album of the 1986s. A great album from a great artist. Whitney better get this one for their collection.

And it is still a joy to listen to.
Her other LP's like,"I'm Your Baby Tonight",& "My Love Is Your Love" are quite decient albums but this collection of songs,from a great collection of writers & producers,is STILL "The Greatest Love Of All"

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No Her 1st hottest album!!
This is a great album. It contains some of her first known songs on it, such as "How Will I Know?", "Saving All My Love For You," and "Greatest Love of All." I have this album on LP and CD and she does really well singing it. For those of you who have not yet heard any of Whitney's music or do not yet have this set, please go buy this album. She will rock your world!!!

Purchase Whitney Houston CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Epiphany: The Best Of Chaka Khan, Vol. 1 CD (1996) Import
Whitney Houston album
 $9.79    
All tracks have been digitally remastered using HDCD technology.
"Never Miss The Water," featuring Me'Shell NdegeOcello, was nominated for a 1997 Grammy Award for Best R&B Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal.
Chaka Khan's career through the 1996 release of Epiphany: The Best of Chaka Khan, Vol. 1 -- involving eight albums with Rufus and eight solo albums, along with assorted collaborations -- produced roughly 40 Top 40 R&B singles, not to mention dozens of undervalued album cuts. So it is clear that any one-disc attempt at wrapping up the highlights is bound to work more like a sampler than a true best-of. And though this release is given the "Vol. 1" tag, it remained without a sequel as late as 2005, when Reprise reissued it without altering the contents. Yet another frustration is that previously unreleased songs take the place of missing classics like "Sweet Thing," "Clouds," "Fate," "Close the Door," and "Stay." (That's just for starters.) ...

Whitney Houston songs
$12.79
MY LOVE IS YOUR LOVE was nominated for the 2000 Grammy Award for Best R&B Album. "It's Not Right But It's Okay" won the 2000 Grammy Award for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance. "It's Not Right But It's Okay" was nominated for the 2000 Grammy Award for Best R&B Song. "Heartbreak Hotel" was nominated for the 2000 Grammy Award for Best R&B Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal and for Best R&B Song.
Whitney Houston's voice is a marvel of technical perfection. Equally at home with pop, R&B or Gospel, Houston exerts unprecedented control over her celebrated pipes, moving through a song like a graceful bird in flight. It is this quality that makes MY LOVE IS YOUR LOVE such a consistently satisfying work. With a talent like hers, there's no need for Houston to stick to any one formula, so MY LOVE is all over the stylistic map. There's a novel update of the rock & roll classic "Heartbreak Hotel" enlivened by guest appearances from Faith Evans and Kelly Price. There's the ...
