-One thing that I love about what's happened in my career is that when I first came out, I was never heralded as the new Otis Redding, the new Sam Cooke, the new Teddy Pendergrass or Smoky Robinson.

I wasn't the new anybody.

I was Luther.

They are my sisters and my brother.

We have been together for so many years.

It's like growing up together.

[ Applause ] And the thing is, what's particularly nice about it is that, you know, a lot of people grow up in families, and they have siblings and everything, but it's really so nice to have older sisters and brothers to look up to.

[ Laughs ] Now, Ava, come on down.

Everybody, you know who she is, but I want to tell you anyway.

Please say hello to Ava Cherry.

[ Cheers and applause ] Come on down here.

Yep.

Is he sharp, or what?

[ Laughs ] Oh.

Everybody, this is Kevin Owens.

[ Cheers and applause ] Alright.

Come on down.

Now I want to tell you -- okay, y'all know who she is.

She has her own Grammy.

She has her own recording contract with Elektra Records.

Yes, and the thing is, let me tell you this, okay?

Because I want to clue you in what we did to put tonight together.

Because we're filming a TV special for PBS, which will debut my new album.

I have a new album coming out soon.

[ Cheers and applause ] And I'll tell you about that later.

But Lisa, she's now on tour with The Rolling Stones.

Yeah, so when we called her, we said, "Lisa, on Tuesday, September 13th, we are going to film a TV special.

Can you come?"

And all signs were go, all signs were go because The Rolling Stones did not have a gig on the 12th, on Monday the 12th, which was yesterday.

All of a sudden, out of nowhere, a week and a half ago, they add a gig to their tour.

So then we have to rent her private plane to take her from the stage in Chicago to London, here.

She got in today at 6:00, learned all the new steps, all the new choreography, five new songs on the tape recorder on the plane.

And she's here now, and that's why we love her to death.

[ Cheers and applause ] Everybody, this is Lisa Fischer!

[ Cheers and applause ] ♪ Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah ♪ ♪ Yeah, yeah, yeah ♪ Um, Ava, I'm sorry.

Excuse me on second.

Could you get me some water, please?

My throat is kind of dry.

Thank you, darling.

Old pecan face.

So, anyway -- wait, first, let me do this.

This is what I really need, see.

See, I tell you what I really need, what would really be nice.

Because I'm looking around.

I've never been in Royal Albert Hall before.

And it is beautiful.

And I was thinking to -- it really is.

I've heard all about it.

And I was thinking that it would be really nice if I had an orchestra, but they told me, they said, "Nah, nah, nah, you can't have an orchestra because of the budget and the blah, blah, blah, and the blah, blah, blah, and the blah, blah, blah," right?

So I said, please, I said, that's jive.

So I figured I deserve an orchestra.

Don't y'all think I deserve an orchestra?

-[ Cheers and applause ] -You know what I'm saying?

Yeah.

So we not only got an orchestra, but we went out, and we got The Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra.

Yes!

Hey, y'all!

[ Cheers and applause ] Ah.

You look good.

You look good.

You look great.

And tonight, they're gonna be conducted by my arranger, my conductor, who I love so much.

Everybody, Nat, turn around because I want you to -- Everybody, this is Nat Adderley, Jr. [ Cheers and applause ] He's got a big job tonight.

And he's gonna do it today.

Wait, mm.

I define classic as songs which stand the test of time, song which are not flavor of the month songs, songs that the generations can share.

So I figure that when we premiered it, we would do it a special event, at a classic venue.

And when I think of really classic venues, there are only a few places that come to mind, you know?

And the Royal Albert Hall is at the top of that list.

And I was more than anxious to get here.

I think it's a big feather in my cap that I can get an audience to sit still and just listen.

So this is the perfect place.

People always say to me, "Boy, Luther, I bought the new album, I love it.

Oh, but 'House Is Not a Home' kills me."

And they say, "Oh, I got the new album, and you know what I love?

I love 'Superstar.'"

And, "Oh, Luther, I bought the new album, and, you know, I played 'How Deep Is Your Love' 10 times in a row."

Then it was suggested to me that I do an album, since people react like that to my interpretation of preexisting songs, of cover songs, an entire collection of cover songs.

And I loved the idea.

It gave me a chance to pay tribute to some of the artists who did the songs as well as some of the songs themselves.

You know, when I used to sing background for Roberta Flack, she, more than anybody, encouraged me to make my own record and have my own career.

And I owe her a lot.

You know?

A lot of the music that I sing has changed, you know, and it varies.

But there's always been a variety of styles and approaches to the music that I chose to sing.

So I don't think that much has changed, and I also don't think that change is some necessary evil that you have to experience, otherwise, you're stagnating as an artist.

I never believed that either, you know?

I listened to early Barbra Streisand, and I know it's her, and I listened to her on her special the other night on TV, and I knew it was her.

And although her voice has matured, you know, the whole issue of the stamp being put on it is really stylistic more than a conscious effort to change or to evolve.

You evolve naturally.

Evolving -- Evolution is nothing that you can effect by a concerted effort to sound different or to sound hip.

Now here's a song that will give you a positive message and make you feel as good as I feel.

'Cause I feel good.

[ Cheers and applause ] I have always been a hands-on type of performer.

You know, I consider my career as a vision that I have.

It's almost like the cake that your mother bakes, you know?

It makes a difference how much of this she puts in and a pinch of that and a pinch of this.

You know, it's more than a cake.

It's kind of a vision.

Go right.

-Oh, how we used to.

-Right.

-Ba, ba, that's right.

We sure did do that.

Yeah.

-So it is the left shoulder.

-Yes, and it starts earlier.

-The 5/4 bop.

[Vocalizing] The sight line over Kevin's head of Nat, you know, just it's cluttered looking.

-Yeah.

-We'll see what it looks like when we get there.

Because maybe Merle can play with the lighting a little bit.

-We can drop Nat a few feet.

Not a few feet, I mean a few inches.

We can lower him a bit.

-No, no, no, it's only in reference to the first song that I'm speaking.

We need a long break now.

We're tired.

Let's have a three-minute break.

No, I didn't say three hour.

Don't try it.

Three minutos.

Minuets.

Three minuets.

Y'all better take the break, 'cause it's 2 minutes and 12 seconds now.

-I need to write what I'm playing real quickly for that too.

-For this?

-For "Killing Me Softly."

-Oh, for that.

All right.

So I'm -- -Yeah, 'cause I'm playing it, but then they still have to come in when you sing.

That should be them.

-Okay.

-You know?

So... -[ Speaks indistinctly ] -Yeah, the first one at the top, yeah.

-I'll go put that on the computer now.

-Okay.

-Yeah, band intros.

Band intros.

-Band intros?

-So, you know, there's a 10:00 aerobics class that I'm gonna go to, and I can just make it.

-That's funny.

[ Laughs ] -When I made "Never Too Much," my first record, "real singers" were frowned upon because music was really the producer's vehicle.

And what worked for me was that I was one of the first real singers to emerge out of that disco period.

And it made me kind of singular in what I contributed to music at that point.

You know, when I was a kid buying records by The Shirelles, by Aretha Franklin, by Dionne Warwick, one of the first things that appealed to me were the background vocals.

And that remained with me.

The criteria for choosing background vocalists who sing with me is that they understand the language of the music -- not only the technical part of it, but the actual language.

So for us, it's like talking.

I like that in here.

Seems right for the room, doesn't it?

I want to tell you that -- I want to introduce you to the choir who also need to be -- Hi.

-Hi.

-Hi.

-Did you bring a spotlight with you, by any chance?

Oh, okay.

[ Laughter ] I want to introduce you to the London Community Gospel Choir.

Yes.

Yeah!

[ Cheers and applause ] Yes.

Hey, y'all.

They're under the direction of Bazil Meade, right there in the corner.

He organized it all for us.

When people ask me, "Well, Luther, you know, if you get a big number-one pop record, won't you be running away from your R&B roots," et cetera, et cetera, I find it funny.

I find it funny because there could be nothing further from the truth.

I consider it like a pyramid that you're building.

And the heavy part is on the bottom.

And that's the foundation that I spent the last decade and a half building, you know, building a core, base audience.

And adding to that is something that I think everyone in my base audience, in my core audience appreciates, you know?

And it's nice to appeal to a wider audience.

You know, wider.

Wider.

Not whiter, wider audience.

And include them in what the R&B audience and listeners already know to be so.

Now, we've gotten all these love songs down.

Let's see.

What else do we need to do?

We sang love songs.

We sang songs about emotions.

We haven't -- We need to party.

[ Cheering ] That's it.

I think we need to party.

Ho!
