Hi Everyone,

We found this video hiding in the vault and it makes perfect sense to play it on this month’s ManilowTV.

As you might know, we’re heading for another run on Broadway, this time at the sensational Lunt-Fontanne theater.

And by coincidence, the video we found was closing night...

Hi Everyone,

This month’s Manilow TV episode is a real rare video.

This one was really taped in 1821!

In 1975, we were still playing little clubs across the country and the word of mouth was real good.

When we got to Chicago, we found that the new Network, PBS, was based out of Chicag...

Wembley Arena London, England March 4th, 1990

Welcome to the latest episode of MANILOW TV!

Marc Hulett here, Barry’s assistant for the past 80 years, and cameraman for this amazing show. I still remember this night like it was yesterday….

Live In Japan 1985
Osaka-jo Hall
Osaka City, Japan
June 6th, 1985

We were in Japan when we first saw this video. We were near the end of our Japanese tour when someone brought the DVD into my dressing room and we started to watch it.

It was the first time we’d ever seen and heard au...

Hi Everyone,

This month’s ManilowTV is the complete version of our show at Paris Las Vegas that we did from 2010 to 2011.

It was the most beautiful show we had ever done.

I created it with the genius Jeffrey Hornaday and his brilliant team of magicians.

It was the most complicated an...

Hi Everyone.

Boy, this concert brings back some great memories!

The year was 1983 and for the first time ever, we played Tokyo, Japan.

Boy, talk about feeling out of place!

I had no idea what was about to happen. I was convinced nobody would come to the show, that nobody in Japan (Jap...

There are three words that describe Barry’s performance in this month’s ManilowTV Episode:

Heart, humor and humanity…

Barry displays all three of those great words within the first 10 minutes of this special show as he took to the stage the day after his mother Edna passed away.

Marc Hulett he...

Hi Everyone,

This is a very rare video. I don’t think I’ve seen this one since the morning after it was recorded.

Thanks to Marc for finding this one.

It’s a video of one of the first performance of the “Big Fun” tour in Minneapolis in 1987.

The show kept changing and changing as the tour wen...

We called this tour “An Evening of Music and Passion” and it was a road show based on the show we’d put together for the Hilton show we were doing in Las Vegas.

This tour was the most extravagant touring production we’d ever done. It took something like 12 semi-trucks to carry it around country....

Greatest Hits and Big Bands, Too
Chaparral Center
Midland, TX
May 20th, 1995

This month’s Manilow TV episode is a concert that came from “The Greatest Hits Tour”. During that tour I recorded “Singin’ With The Big Bands”, my tribute to the great songs of the Big Band era. The brilliant...

Hi Everyone,

This month’s Manilow TV is really great. We’re back at the “Clicker” tour and boy, did we get to do some rare songs.

It was the 1997 Fan Club Convention weekend, so the audience was really on fire.

When we get an audience like that, I just start changing the show around and throwi...

Hi Everyone,

This month’s MTV is a video back by popular demand! And I understand why. It’s one of my favorite videos too.

It’s “Manilow-Close-Up” – songs from the 1998 tour of the UK.

It always amazes me when I look at any of the performances on this video.

To think that there were only five...

Hi Everyone,

This month’s Manilow TV is another real rare one.

We only played The Philippines once in my entire career and it was a once in a lifetime experience for me.
The audiences in Manila and Cebu were beyond my wildest expectations. 50,000 people filled up each of the arena shows there.
...

This concert is a beauty.

CBS-TV offered to tape a concert at the brand new Kodak Theater in Hollywood. A gorgeous place to perform.

We were coming off a very successful and exciting few months. Concord Records had released my favorite album called “Here At The Mayflower” and Arista released ...

Happy New Year everyone!

As we begin 2011 (!!!), I thought I’d start the year off with the video of Opening Night at the Las Vegas Hilton. As you know, we were at the Hilton for five years. Five wonderful years.

So many events happened during those five years that our show kept morphing into di...

Hi Everyone,

This is a real ambitious concert. We were playing at the Las Vegas Hilton and promoting “The Greatest Songs of the 80’s” album. Every night I would do a song that came from that album. It was great fun for me, the band, the singers and I hope, for the audiences.

This night the 80’...

Manilow Country Special
April 11, 2000

This hour special was an interesting and creative experience for me.

As the pop music world began to become more R&B and rap oriented, it seemed to me that melody had gone to country.

So when TNN offered me an hour long show of my own on their station, I...

Hi Everyone,

Auditorio Nacional
Mexico City, Mexico
May 17th, 1996

Hi Everyone,

This month’s episode is a very rare one, indeed.

We played Mexico City only a few times in my entire career. I’ve always remembered those shows as having some of the best crowds ever.

But those shows...

Barry Manilow's Christmas Magic
National Exhibition Center

Hi Everyone,

It's that time of the year so some holiday music seemed fitting.

We received such great feedback on the last episode that we’ve decided to show the 2nd BBC special from this conce...

Hi everyone,

This audio file is a very rare one.

It’s a benefit I did for the Annenberg Museum in Palm Springs.

I did it with one of the great spiritual speakers that bases out of Palm Springs. He’s very loved in the Coachella Valley.

Very smart, very experienced and so well spoken.

Hi Everyone,

Well, this one is a surprise. Didn’t know this video even existed.

It’s the “Return To Blenheim” concert that we did in 2004.

It was held on the grounds of Blenheim Palace – same place we performed in 1983.

It was nostalgic being back at the scene of one of the most excit...
