The Last Concert (Live From Astrodome)

Selena Live! The Last Concert is a live album by American singer Selena. It was recorded on February 26, 1995, at the Houston Astrodome and was televised live on Univision. The album was posthumously released by EMI Latin on March 27, 2001. The singer shared the concert with Tejano singer Emilio Navaira and performed to 66,994 people, which broke the previous attendance record held by Selena the previous year. The concert was critically acclaimed for outperforming ticket sales by country music singers Vince Gill, Reba McEntire, and George Strait. Selena's performance at the Astrodome became her final televised concert before she was shot and killed on March 31, 1995. At the time of her performance, journalists gave the singer rave reviews, citing the range of material performed, as well as Selena's "sultry, and sensual" choreography. Critics have since regarded the concert as one of her best performances—it was dramatized by Jennifer Lopez in the 1997 biopic film. The purple jumpsuit worn during the performance—on display in a museum the singer's family operates in Corpus Christi, Texas—continues to be a popular halloween costume for children and adults.
