So many years I was enamored by Mariah Carey's high note in the very beginning of her song "It's A Wrap" and I am just now discovering this beautiful record It was inspired by! All love to Mariah Cissy Whitney and Aretha!!! 💜 May black female voices continue to reign in Pop music AS THEY SHOULD! RIP to those no longer with us! 🙏

Aretha and Cissy were a not-so-quiet sonic storm.

Cissy was alto. Who knew how to hit the high note with ease

This is an incredible song!

Awesome job you did, collecting it all.

When she giggled at her own A6 screech, it was too precious 😅 rest easy darling xx

Cissy left her Soul on that track 😢😢😢❤❤

her high notes was phenomenal ...no one holds a candle against cissy ..trust me she is legendary..

Pizza be better than this

Genius movie. Miles better than anything that came out of America

Wow magnificent ❤❤❤❤

Be still ya little c@nt

“The kids lying I think charges should be pressed on him” no charges were pressed and the kid got hit first your just mentally slow

Are Karen Clarke Sheard and Cissy the same kinda soprano?

😅😅😅😅 I laugh my emotion how beautiful cissy cover that bb5 c5 omg

Angel be beautiful! Fuck you God! Strike me down, if you dare!

Mr Pop🤣 Me pop now🤣

"God be a worthless c***." Truer words are rarely spoken.

When listening to this song I wait for the high note

Very angelic Whitney Houston had the best experiences of music with those great legends

What is the name of that song with the techno beat of d3 note ? From Diana king ?

Love her voice! Thanks.

Cissy had an ear for music that’s out of this world. I bet she came up with that Adlib on the whim! Damn they need a movie about Cissy and the cousins lol

This it cissy made it work priceless

God be a useless cunt

Me think angel be beautiful

ROLLING STONES. DO YOU HAVE IT? THIS IS TOPS.

You're a liar it's not the highest note,

AMAZING BEAUTIFUL !!!!

A mezzo soprano

The greatest voice in recording history - backed by the greatest background singer Cissy Houston.

Fuck you god

when will she recieve credit Wow!!

I can tell Grace Slick was influenced by her a lot.

Listen to those rolling Rs at 1:00

What fine parenting!!!

I thought an eb6 would sound more like a whistle

"Fuck you god, strike me down if you dare. Angel be beautiful, god be a useless cunt!"

Aretha and Cissy created the Perfect Storm for this epic creation with Aretha leading and Cissy creating a halo of voice for the background. Purely original.

SOOOO sultry...

Knowing it's Aretha on piano adds another dimension....

RIP cissy houston ❤️

5:30 what song is?

SHe was definitely better than Cousin Brenda's version!

Oh Luther V. Would nit cut an single album if Sissy wasn’t in Sessions. Period. Her voice was even more powerful than her Daughters. Who she started training g her in session Whitney was only 12. ( exposed to soon). Cissy stayed loyal To church. I wish I could hear those tapes. She had to earn a living. Her voice was her instrumental used for God’s outpace. But yes she sang background. That was income. .

😳 wow! #respect 🙏

This is what you call severe narcissistic abuse

😍😍😍 amazing

Never knew that was Cissy in the background…
