R&B crooner Luther Vandross released a breakthrough album for himself in 1991 called THE POWER OF LOVE. Filled with songs like "I Want the Night to Stay," "I Can Tell You That," and "Emotional Love," THE POWER OF LOVE is truly one of those can't-put-down albums. One gets to hear the full range of Luther's craft, from the songs he belts out to those that he softly whispers in your ear. Other standouts include "She Doesn't Mind," "I'm Gonna Start Today," and "I Who Have Nothing," the last of which features a guest vocal appearance from Martha Wash. THE POWER OF LOVE is filled with all the emotion and harmony that fans have come to love in Luther's music.
Editorial Reviews 4 Stars - Excellent - ...extraordinary rich voice...[Vandross has] sustained and continually refreshed his own self-styled pop-soul genre... Rolling Stone (08/22/1991)
...Mammoth and grossly luxurious, the album creates a pillow-filled musical love room to be explored, at a listener's leisure...Vandross is pop's greatest man of romance... New York Times (01/01/1992)
...Luther's lithe, lean lines and effortless exultation are a breath of fresh air... Musician (07/01/1991)
