    Possibly the best 15 minutes of recorded music ever!! Nobody does it better. Steve & Eydie were inarguably the very best at what they did.

    I know nothing is perfect, and nobody is perfect. But for the life of me, I cannot find a flaw in this 15 minutes of performance. NOTHING. What's more I have looked at several of their other duets. Each time Perfect diction, phrasing, pitch. I can't find anything. Just impeccably flawless.

In the dear dead days of the 12 inch record, Steve and Eydie released a double album of this show, which I lent to someone and never got back so this brought back some happy memories.

    Two of the greatest pop vocalists of all time in a fabulous concert featuring a level of singing, theatricality, and musicianship on a level all it's own and what an abundance of superb songs! I saw the concert live as broadcast on TV, and purchased a complete recording that was offered at the time and played it endlessly There were numerous solos, and duets performed by this "dynamic duo" with incredible professionalism and panache often taking advantage of Steve's beautiful mellow tone and Eydie's spectacular head voice which enabled her to include so many incredible high notes such as no other pop vocalist has ever done before or since. A thrilling night of top-flight musical entertainment!

    Did anyone catch the play of words when Steve sang"love walked right in and brought the shadows away" he changed it to "love walked right in and scared the (shit) shadows (out of me) from me". Watch his sneaky grin when he gets to the words with a very quick pause and leaves out those words! He has always been a very underated comedian.🤔😱😏🤗👍♥️

    Having grown up in Mexico, I first became aware of Eydie Gorme when she sang with the Trio Los Panchos in Spanish. This was circa 1972, or later than the original recordings. There was a music/record store on Market Street in San Francisco, CA, around this time that played Eydie singing Amor, Amor, Amor and you could hear her all the way to the street as you passed by on the sidewalk. I was immediately intrigued by such a beautiful voice and wanted to know who she was. Later I learned that she was married to Steve Allen, whom I regarded as very handsome and of course extremely talented as well. I was very lucky to have come of age at a time when these two wonderful people could still be heard on television and at record stores. I think of them as I do about Herb Alpert and Lani Hall, two married couples who were superb and extremely talented, delighting the rest of us with their voice and songs.

      The recording industry markets almost exclusively to young, immature minds now. Simple as that. Back in the days of Elvis and later the Beatles there still was a big M.O.R. audience and record-buying public that bought records by Frank, Tony, Ella, Satchmo, Jack Jones, Peggy Lee, Steve and Eydie, et al. No more. We live in the age of junk food, junk music, junk politics, and junk people.
