For some reason I couldn't get enough listening to and watching her clips on You Tube yesterday! I like the way this performance captured her Power and Command as Artist and Musician!
R.I.P. Ree!

I believe it was her sister Carolyn

I believe it was her sister Carolyn

Carolyn was a background singer in the song, but Cissy Houston was the one hitting the high notes.

Thanks....I always thought it was Carolyn. Cissy was a heck of a singer.

Yea I was reading about this today. The four brother get along very well and want to split it equally. Under Michigan law this is how it should play out if there is no will or trust. Yet, the niece wants to step in....that's where the mess will began. I bet the niece comes with some speculative BS....

Y'all made me go back and pull up 'Ain't No Way'.

Thanks....I always thought it was Carolyn. Cissy was a heck of a singer.

She should have left those cigarettes alone though. Here is cissy and young Whitney singing together. They covered "ain't no way"
