Performer: Celine Dion
Producer: Anders Bagge; Peer Astrom Distributor: Sony Music Distribution ( Notes: Initial pressings include a bonus DVD disc. Personnel: Celine Dion (vocals); Andre Coutu (guitar); Yves Frulla (keyboards); Mark Langis (bass guitar); Dominique Messier (drums); Paul Picard (percussion). When Celine Dion signed a contract with Caesars Palace to maintain an exclusive Las Vegas residency specifically created for her by the casino, she ended up taking herself out of the international pop spotlight for an extended period of time. A NEW DAY...LIVE IN LAS VEGAS serves as an in-your-face reminder that everyone's favorite French-Canadian diva remains a formidable presence, despite being MIA on the pop charts for awhile. Dion pulls out all the stops with a program that mixes in songs made famous by Nat "King" Cole, Louis Armstrong, Etta James, and Roy Orbison, along with many of her own hits. If there was any question about what "Because You Loved Me," "My Heart Will Go On," and "I'm Alive" would sound like with big Vegas accompaniment, wonder no more. And if this sonic helping of Celine isn't enough, initial copies of A NEW DAY...LIVE IN LAS VEGAS include ONE YEAR, ONE HEART, a bonus DVD featuring footage of Dion creating her Caesars Palace show and recording this live performance.
Celine Dion's ascent from stardom in her native Canada to the upper echelons of international pop divadom is one of the 1990s major success stories. Blessed with a formidable set of pipes and a preference for heart-in-the-throat ballads, the precociously talented Dion initially won over American listeners in 1991, 10 years after her French-language debut, with the title track from Disney's BEAUTY AND THE BEAST. From then on, Dion became a music-biz phenomenon, with platinum record sales, sold-out concerts, and across-the-board appeal rivaling her idol, Barbra Streisand.
