This audio file was recorded at the UNCF benefit 30th Anniversary "An Evening of Stars" 'Tribute To Patti LaBelle' that took place at the Kodak Theatre Los Angeles on Sept. 13, 2008. The Evening was taped and will be broadcast on BET, WGN-National, and other local channels on JAN. 24 & 25, 2009.

Fantasia Barrino blew the roof off with this first of her two performances that evening, and surprised everyone by going out into the audience and singing part of the song side-by-side with Ms. Patti, who appeared to be blown away like the rest of us!

You can get a glimpse of the video of that song and the evening on a 'teaser video' posted by UNCF via Marketwire here:

Note: At the start, you hear Sheila E. introducing Fantasia... (Sheila had us laughing so hard when the show's director asked her to start the intro over, and she said she knew how to do it: "This ain't my first barbeque!"... He said: "That's for sure!")

Because these 30 years of Tributes are benefits for UNCF, PLEASE consider visiting their site, making a donation, and getting involved in supporting that great organization -- as does Ms. Patti LaBelle.

Also, The Ray Charles Foundation was honored the same evening, and they can use our support as well!:

Thank You! And Enjoy!
