On January 26, 2010, Arista Records/Legacy Recordings will release the 25th Anniversary Edition of 'Whitney Houston', the astonishing debut album that catapulted a virtually unknown young artist into the upper reaches of pop superstardom in 1985. The 'Whitney Houston' - 25th Anniversary Edition CD/DVD package includes the international chart-topping original Arista album - remastered in its entirety for the 25th anniversary - along with five bonus tracks including Whitney's a cappella recording of "How Will I Know" plus a stunning live performance of "Greatest Love of All".
As an added bonus for fans, the 25th Anniversary Edition of 'Whitney Houston' includes a features-packed new DVD. Three rare tv performances are included: "I Am Changing", a song from the 1982 Broadway production of 'Dreamgirls', performed live at the Arista Records 10th Anniversary celebration in 1985; "You Give Good Love" performed live at the first annual Soul Train Awards Show in 1987; and Whitney’s breakout national TV debut singing "Home" (from 'The Wiz') on the Merv Griffin Show in 1983. All four classic music videos – "You Give Good Love", "Saving All My Love For You", "How Will I Know", and "Greatest Love of All" – appear on the DVD.
