Happy New Year!

Thank goodness 2020 is over! Hope 2021 is better. It can’t possibly be any worse!

This month’s MTV is another rare video.

Some of you may remember the “Reminiscing” tour. It was one of the most interesting and exciting tours we’ve ever created.

My two technical genius friend...

An Evening With Harmony
Breman Jewish Museum
Atlanta, GA
August 26th, 2013

As many of you know, Bruce and my show “Harmony”, has opened in Atlanta at the Alliance Theater and we’re thrilled with the amazing response from critics and audiences alike.

Before the show opened, we were asked...

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...

MANILOW
Paris Las Vegas
Las Vegas, NV
December 11, 2011

Hi Everyone

We’ve been getting a lot of requests for this video.

It’s the closing night at the Paris Theater in Las Vegas.

At the end of the show I introduced everyone who had anything to do with the show and brought them up ...

Wow.

This year flew by. Can’t believe I’m about to wish everyone a happy holiday already!

Happy Holiday!

Our final month’s ManilowTV episode is another rare concert.

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 Hilto...

Hi Everyone,

This month’s video is one-of-a-kind.

In 2006, while we were at the Hilton, I began recording a run of albums that paid tribute to the music of various decades.

The first was “The Greatest Songs of the Fifties” which amazingly entered the charts at #1.

That album was followed by “...

Here's the second episode of Manilow TV. This is the special Sunday Matinee we performed because of the legendary flood that happened on Friday evening, August 2nd.

The Friday show was supposed to be our first of three final concerts of the Manilow Live 2002 tour we had been on for 9 months. W...

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 ghetto 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 ...

This is an interesting performance from the vault.

It’s a benefit for Cystic Fibrosis which that Rosie O'Donnell puts together every year. This particular year it was held up in Breckinridge, Colorado, where it was cold, snowy and where everyone skied. Everyone that is, except me. Ask any Brookl...

Hi Everyone,

This month’s MTV comes from a terrific U.K. tour.

Since we were supposed to be touring the U.K. right now, we thought it would be show you a concert that came from the U.K. in 1996.

We were in the round on this one and “Copacabana” the musical had opened in the West End.

The s...

Hi Everyone,

Well, this month’s Manilow TV makes perfect sense since we just finished two incredible shows in Mexico City.

We hadn’t been there in 23 years! I wasn’t sure anyone would come, but I’m glad to say I was very wrong.

We did two wild, loving, sing-along nights at the National A...

Greatest Hits And Then Some
Yokohama Kenmin Hall
Yokohama, Japan
November 25th, 1992

Now here’s a real rare video.

Yokohama, Japan, 1992.

This tour took us from Las Vegas to the Philippines, to Singapore, to Japan and then New Jersey!

All the Melatonin in the world won’t help that ...

The Royal Variety Performances

Hi Everyone,

This is a real exciting episode.

It’s a montage of all of my guest appearances on Britain’s Royal Variety Shows.

I doubt if the folks in America have ever seen these performances and for my British friends, it will be fun to take a walk down...

Hi Everyone,

Come with me back, back, way back in time this month.

We go back to 1984!

I was really surprised to find that we even HAD a video of this show. But my wonderful assistant Marc was crunched down in the 10th row taping the show with a cheap home camera! And it’s a fine recordi...

The Making Of 2:00 AM Paradise Cafe

Hi everyone,

Boy, I haven’t seen this video in years! Watching it brought back such deep memories for me.

As most of you know, “2:00AM-Paradise Café” was a milestone in my career as a songwriter, producer and performer.

It was a daring thing to ...

The Barry Manilow Concert Showtime
March 18th, 1982

We’ve decided to show the Showtime Concert that aired on Showtime on March 18th, 1982.

It’s very rare and out of print. There are some great songs in this concert and I think it will bring back some terrific memories to friends and fans.
...

Resorts International
Superstar Theatre
Atlantic City, NJ
May 5th, 1981

This next episode was never meant to be seen by anyone but the people who were involved in the show. The quality of this episode is very, very rough. Blurry video, distorted sound abounds. I hadn’t seen it in many...

This month’s Manilow TV is an oldie but a goodie (just like me!).

It’s a really decent quality video of our first time in Atlantic City at the Resorts International.

We had sold out the show within hours and the demand for tickets was so great that they had to place TV monitors in three sep...

Manilow Live - Amsterdam 1978 / Nobel Peace Prize Concert 2010

This is an unusual episode.

We found the first segment of this episode way, way, WAAY in the back of our file cabinets where no man has gone for decades. I’m surprised that when we played the video tape (remember them?) it didn’...
