For All Luther Fans.......2007-04-14

I really enjoyed watching this DVD. I enjoyed finding out more about Luther from others and his ideas of himself.

After watching this DVD and understanding what Luther vandross said I decided to get rid of the excess body fat that I have been carrying around for years. I to have experienced going up and down with small and large amounts of body fat like Luther Vandross. I had come to the point of giving up, but he has showed me what will happen if I don't get rid of this condition I have found myself in.

Luther Journeys in Black, for the Luther Fan.......2003-08-16

If you are a Luther Vandross fan, you will love this insight into the man and his music. Even if you only have a passing interest in one of the greatest soul singers ever, then this dvd is an essential purchase.

Sadly as we write this review, Luther continues to be recovering from his life threatening stroke suffered recently.
However if you have seen Luther Vandross live at any time during his career or have any of his many excellent albums you will love the dvd Luther Vandross - Journeys in Black.

ESSENTIAL PURCHASE - BUY IT AND FIND OUT MORE ABOUT THE MAN, HIS MUSIC AND FEEL THE GENUINE LOVE THAT IS FELT FOR THIS MAN THE WORLD OVER BY BOTH ARTISTS AND FANS.
