REMEMBERING WHITNEY'S AWE-INSPIRING ANTHEM

Clive Davis and Rickey Minor turn back the clock 30 years to discuss the pre-game preparation that went into Whitney Houston’s epic performance of the “Star Spangled Banner.”

During CBS’ seemingly daylong lead-up to Super Bowl LV, one package explored Houston’s 1991 landmark performance of the national anthem prior to Super Bowl XXXV in the very same location as today’s game, Tampa, Fla. (Ravens fans remember it well; Giants fans remember the excuses).

So, put down the chili dog, remove your hat and salute this performance, which Clive considers a peak among peaks.
