Birmingham

Sophisticated, stylish, sultry and sexy, En Vogue were the most successful girl group of the Nineties, scoring hit singles around the world and amassing album sales in excess of eight million. Carrying on the girl group tradition popularised by such Sixties groups as The Supremes and The Ronettes, En Vogue owe a lot of their success to their skilful blending of contemporary R & B with elements of hip-hop, which gave them credibility with hip club and dance audiences. En Vogue has been a major musical and style influence on All Saints and indeed on most other contemporary girl groups. En Vogue – Cindy Herron-Braggs, Terry Ellis & Amanda Cole – is featured here in a concert they gave in Birmingham, Alabama in December of 2002 at which they performed a program of their most popular songs, including their six US Top Ten hits. These include ‘Hold On’, ‘My Lovin’ and ‘Don’t Let Go’ – each of which made #2 in the U.S. charts, as well as an eleven-minute version of ‘Giving Him Something He Can Feel’.
