 Organisatie Vibe5 organiseert sinds 2010 de jaarlijkse
Cartouch Vibes in Stairway To Heaven aan de Mariaplaats 11-12 in Utrecht.

Allen hebben ruime ervaring in het uitgaan van toen in Club Cartouch
en dragen het nog steeds een warm hart toe.
Deze 5 elementen samen vormen één geheel om uiteindelik van
Cartouch Vibes een uitgaansevent te maken zoals we van vroeger
wel kenden van het stappen in Club Cartouch.
Een avond stappen waar je samen met (oude) bekenden uit je dak kunt gaan
op de muziek uit die tijd en het dus weer kunt herbeleven!
Soul - Classics - Swing en R&B zullen de revue passeren.

Luther Vandross Rarities Uncovered On 'Hidden Gems' |
|
|
|
|
 The overwhelming talent of the late Luther Vandross (1951-2005),
eight-time Grammy Award®-winning singer extraordinaire, songwriter, producer,
arranger, and soul music visionary, are the focus of HIDDEN GEMS.
This new collection of 15 seldom-heard deep album tracks and movie soundtrack
songs will arrive in stores on April 17, 2012, just three days prior to
Luther’s birthday on April 20. The collection is released by Epic/Legacy,
a division of SONY MUSIC ENTERTAINMENT.
In the liner notes written by Luther’s life-long collaborator Fonzi Thornton,
HIDDEN GEMS is described as “a deeper dig into the musical treasure trove
of Luther Vandross, uncovering lesser known songs and performances that
he endowed with the same passion and love as his well known repertoire.”
The album was compiled and produced in association with Luther’s family, his
niece Seveda Williams and cousin Brenda Shields, in order to present “an album
compilation with a different theme his fans might enjoy, a collection which
highlights Luther’s ideas of song selection and how they complement
THAT VOICE.” HIDDEN GEMS will allow casual listeners to discover songs
they never heard, and devoted fans the opportunity to re-live what they loved about Luther Vandross.
