Product Description
On July 21, 1983, the legendary Diana Ross took the stage in New York's Central Park before an audience of over 800,000. Soon after the show began, pouring rain and heavy wind threatened to put an end to the show, but Diana pushed on for much of the set, urging the drenched crowd to remain calm and stay with her. Eventually the torrential storm put an end to the performance, but not before Diana promised her fans she would return the next day. True to her word, Diana performed the entire concert again on July 22nd for the people of New York. Initially broadcast live around the world, this renowned concert remained largely unseen for 30 years, and has never been released on DVD until now.

Boki" (San Francisco, CA) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Diana Ross:Live in Central Park (DVD) When it was first announced that Diana would join the short list of exclusive artists to perform in Central Park. Diana was riding a 5 year wave of uptrending popularity from her critically acclaimed/platinum album, "The Boss", to the mega-success of the Chic produced "diana" album that went onto sell 10 million copies globally, followed closely by what Billboard has declared some 30 years later, "The Biggest Duet of AllTime" w/"Endless Love" to her platinum RCA/EMI debut, "Why Do Fools Fall in Love", it's follow-up the near platinum "Silk Electric" with the Michael Jackson written and produced single, "Muscles" to the album that would spearhead this global concert, "Ross '83".Throughout the 70s and early 80s, Diana Ross concerts were like love-ins. It seemed no matter what you had felt about her and/or body of work, she had a unique gift to entertain audiences into gleeful nirvana. She had been a pupil of Werner Earhard's "EST" which seem to draw her even closer to her...
