\t\"WH1TNEY\"<\/a>BUY NOW FROM AMAZON.COM<\/p>\n

Whitney Houston\u2019s most enduring contributions to pop music history \u2013 her 11 chart-topping singles \u2013 will be celebrated on a new LP this summer.<\/p>\n

The appropriately-titled\u00a0WH1TNEY, pressed on grape-colored purple vinyl, will bring together every hit that topped the\u00a0Billboard\u00a0Hot 100 between 1985 and 1996. From her self-titled debut in 1985, there\u2019s \u201cSaving All My Love,\u201d \u201cHow Will I Know\u201d and \u201cGreatest Love of All\u201d; 1987 follow-up Whitney yields\u00a0\u201cI Wanna Dance with Somebody (Who Loves Me),\u201d \u201cDidn\u2019t We Almost Have It All,\u201d \u201cSo Emotional\u201d and \u201cWhere Do Broken Hearts Go\u201d (these collective album spinoffs gave her a record-setting seven consecutive No. 1s); then there\u2019s the title track from 1990\u2019s I\u2019m Your Baby Tonight and follow-up \u201cAll the Man That I Need\u201d; the juggernaut cover of Dolly Parton\u2019s \u201cI Will Always Love You\u201d off the soundtrack to Houston\u2019s film debut\u00a0The Bodyguard, which sat for a then-record of 14 straights weeks atop the chart in 1992 and 1993; and another soundtrack favorite, \u201cExhale (Shoop Shoop)\u201d from her next film, 1995\u2019s\u00a0Waiting to Exhale. That\u2019s 31 total weeks of No. 1s on the pop front, although it sidesteps charts like Billboard\u2018s R&B songs survey (where 1985\u2019s \u201cYou Give Good Love\u201d and 1998\u2019s \u201cHeartbreak Hotel,\u201d a team-up with Faith Evans and Kelly Price, notched time at the top) or even the U.K. charts, where the 1988 Summer Olympics ballad \u201cOne Moment in Time\u201d surged to the summit.<\/p>\n

Nearly 15 years after Houston\u2019s tragic passing at the age of 48, fans still always love her, with smatterings of posthumous projects assembled in the last decade-plus. A new hits compilation reached the Top 20 in the wake of her passing in 2012, and Legacy Recordings has issued rare and unreleased projects related to live performances<\/a> (including a lauded 1994 set from South Africa<\/a>), alternate mixes and versions from\u00a0The Bodyguard<\/a>, an overview of Houston\u2019s gospel-affected work<\/a>, a deluxe vinyl edition of debut Whitney Houston <\/a>and a remix-heavy companion to 2022\u2019s Whitney Houston: I Wanna Dance with Somebody, the biopic starring Naomi Ackie as the singer and Stanley Tucci as longtime mentor, the late Clive Davis<\/a>. (A remix by Kygo of Houston\u2019s rare cover of Steve Winwood\u2019s \u201cHigher Love\u201d became a club hit in its own right in 2019.)<\/p>\n

No CD or digital version is planned, but with a track list this short and nothing rare among the offerings, this one feels less targeted to collectors and more to casual or even new fans looking to discover the power of Houston\u2019s unmistakable voice.<\/p>\n
