Paradise Tour - Caesars Palace - Atlantic City - October 20,1985
All Access Subscription • 56m
Hi everyone,
This month’s episode brings back some really great memories.
I loved this tour. I loved the people that were a part of it. I loved the inventive stage setup. I loved the songs I sang from the RCA “Manilow” album.
It was such fun singing “At The Dance” every night and so great to be able to sing “Some Sweet Day” every night.
This particular show had an extra added attraction.
When it came time to pick a volunteer to sing “Can’t Smile Without You” with me, I chose my mother who happened to be in the audience.
She had no idea I was going to pick her. But, she was a really great singer and a born ham, so I knew she’d be fine on the stage. But I had no idea how fine she’d be! She brought down the house.
It was one of the highlights of her life. And mine too.
Enjoy, friends.
Barry
