1994

Anita Baker

This was John Williams' last year as conductor of the Boston Pops, and Anita Baker helped him go out with a bang during that year's Fireworks Spectacular. The immensely successful R&B singer was then working on her album "Rhythm of Love," which would win her an eighth Grammy award for the song "I Apologize."

Pictured, Baker performed at Essence Music Festival in 2003.
