Whitney did more than turn Whitney Houston into a pioneering
sensation known around the world by her first name. Originally
released in June 1987, the singer’s blockbuster sophomore
record became the first album by a female artist to debut at No.
1 on the Billboard 200 chart — a position it claimed for a total of
11 weeks en route to selling more than 10 million copies in the
U.S. The Diamond-platinum effort also contains four No. 1 Hot
100 hits that, when combined with the three chart toppers from
her 1985 debut, gave her seven consecutive No. 1 singles — an
accomplishment that no other artist has accomplished. Anchored
by the spirit and message of its opening track, the infectious
“I Wanna Dance with Somebody (Who Loves Me),” Whitney
overflows with unfettered joy, rhythmic vibes, and deep-seated
emotions that forever endeared her to the hearts and minds of
countless fans
Sourced from the original master tapes, Mobile Fidelity’s 180g 33RPM SuperVinyl LP and hybrid SACD of Whitney invite listeners to experience the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee’s pivotal album in audiophile quality for the very first time. Free of the dynamic limitations and tonal flatness prevalent on prior vinyl and CD pressings, the numbered-edition reissues let the music breathe and reveal the copious detail, nuance, and texture within the immaculately produced songs. Houston’s trademark mezzosoprano — an acrobatic instrument equally capable of taking off on fantastic flights and unwinding for hushed meditations — greatly benefits from the newfound airiness and transparency. In every regard, Whitney has never been better. The crossover landmark that paved the way for the likes of Mariah Carey, Christina Aguilera, Beyonce, and more deserves nothing less.
