  • This is when Diana Ross was Diana Ross she is a SUPER STAR....she has that certain something " STARS HAVE " :)

  • you know what,......that was pretty good, and i am really not a diana ross fan....but she really did sing this pretty good, hitting the high notes in full chest voice...pretty good...

  • I remember this from when I was a kid. Awesome post! Thanks.

  • How come that no matter how many times I watch this, I cant help but to get emotional? It gets me every time! Only a performer with some kind of mystical, magical power can do that to a person. "Female Entertainer Of The 20th Century" indeed!!

  • Simply amazing!

  • She's an Angel ~*

  • Thank you very much for Sharing!

    What a way of meeting people and get to see their talent. At first was reluctant being on youtube, but getting to do this has brought me into the houses of some very special people. You are one of them. Life; isn't it wonderful!

    Keep up the good work. Hope You Are Having A Splendid Day!

  • Watched this over and over as a kid/young teenager ... every other weekend!

  • What's wrong with people's ears that claim this woman couldn't sing? Listen to that voice, it jumps off the speakers -- it's emotive, in tune and articulate. And I can hear her belting it out.

  • Never saw an opening or ending like this show deivered! This was true Vegas style, . . . BAMM!!! In your face! The lady truly delivered during this entire show. And it almost makes one understand people's critisisms of so many of her other performances, because the ones from this show are perfection.

  • I just have to say, whenever I need to get inspired I watch this performance. She is my all time favorite female superstar. I don't want to diss anyone, but let me just say that you female artists, particularly the black ones, owe her a HUGE debt and contrary to what anyone thinks.. MS. ROSS IS THE FIRST BLACK POP SUPERSTAR. PERIOD... AND STILL THE BEST THAT EVER WAS.

  • what an exciting, moving presentation: brilliant

  • @rdc300 And you were the pianist for her! What an ego builder that must have been for you! WOW! You must be a world class pianist to be chosen to work with the best. Would love to hear you play sometime. Do you ever upload any of your music?

  • A very, very expensive woman. (compliment)

  • MAGNIFICENT !!!!!!

  • I used to love these HBO specials as a kid--thank you very much for posting!

  • @garyifny I saw this at age nine when it first aired on HBO - I never forgot it. Was amazed and remember feeling bummed out when the credits started rolling.

  • WOW!!!! 6:44 -6:52, so beautiful!

  • @fefecat I agree. She raised her fists in triumph as she walked off the stage, and after THAT performance, she had every right to do so! SPECTACULAR!!!!!

  • go ahead Diana!

  • I got this VHS stillto this day and watch it all the time, I remember this concert on HBO too and Dionne Warrick had a concert on HBO that same yr! Diana brother was one of the back up dancers!

  • Wow- what a blast from the past- last I saw this video/concert on HBO was in 1982-83- and I always liked this song!

    Thanks for posting and letting me find and enjoy it again!

  • This was when Miss Ross was in her prime. 1979 was a stellar year for her.

  • just one word AWESOME, some one can tell me where can i Find this particular song "all for one"

  • nobody gives me the shivers like diana, simply awesome. and did you see those legs

  • Stephan, thank you for sharing this video with us. I remember when it came on HBO back in 1979. I wish they would release it again on dvd maybe Feb.2010 when Diana will celebrate her 50th year in the business. She is a Class ACT.....

  • This is from a DVD I bought from Amazon. It has a black cover with her name in white handwriting. It has the entire concert, whereas, some other DVDs have just the songs & not the connecting stage patter. This DVD was taken from the original official VHS of the show.

  • I will check it out...thnxs

  • @TheReturnOfStephan1 THANKS FOR THE UPLOAD...PURE NOSTALGIA....

  • @AWO1960

    You're quite welcome.

    Happy New Year.:)

  • STAR.

  • They just don't entertain like this anymore...

  • There can only be on e TRUE DIVA!!! DIANA ROSS

  • I love this song, I like the whole show!!

  • She puts all these new girls to shame. They cant SPELL class, trust.

  • At 2:56...she's really SAANGIN!!!Awesome show...her very best...EVER!!

  • ...and let this put to rest any doubts about Ms. Ross' success as a great singer and entertainer.

  • She sang this beautifully....voice was still strong.

  • Nobody does it like this chick. Just out of this world. Stephan, do you have the part where she's carried off?  If I might request that again!
