Thank you for your kind words about my arrangement, and I’m glad you enjoyed the duet. Someone else had posted it some years ago, but the audio and video quality was not very good, so I’m glad I found my own videotape of it, which is a pretty decent quality even though it’s 35 years old!
@@bigeyezzzzzzz I should say so, Michael!!! Back in the 1980s it had been said that VHS videotape or even Betamax videotape would break down over long periods of time. Well, 35 years is a testament to the staying power of videotape. You must have stored them well.
A classic song sang by a man with class These Songs meant more when we reallycherished loved and respect for women !Not one degarding lyric in this song, love you freddie!
I'm surprised at how seamlessly these two classics with very different feels were melded together. Dionne and Michael made for a uniquely enchanting combination!
This woman! Who could she not sing well with? And that ending is everything: 🎼 "I keep forgetting that I'll never love this way again." 🎶 Brilliant! And to think she could have recorded "On My Own" with Mr. Blue-Eyed Soul himself, Michael McDonald.
Billy Dee=Smooth Dionne Warwick=Smooth Michael McDonald=Smooth Transition=Smooth Any More Smoothness, And These Folks Are Going To Slide Off The Damn Stage. Good Gosh! How I miss, watching Solid Gold? Fond Memories.
Stunning ,stylish Ms.Dionne Warwick and wow Mr. Michael McDonald...The music is amazing....What a clever merge of these two great songs😊😊😊😊👍👍👍👍Big fan from Bangalore,India.
Thank you for your appreciative words about this duet arrangement that I did of Dionne and Michael’s songs (I’m Michael Miller, I was the Musical Director for SOLID GOLD). Glad you enjoyed the performance (it was one of my very favorite duets from all the years that we did the show). 🤗
The blending of the musical ensembles on "Solid Gold" was an unexpected, but brilliant, part of the music having magic part. As musical director, you were like a "musical magician," and often participating even more directly than the usual backstage efforts, as here, with keyboards. It all came together so well!!! The finished product was so polished that it shined like gold...Solid Gold.
Thank you, sir. The music certainly does have magic, but it takes a bunch of really good musicians to make it seem like I’m some sort of magician! All I did was wave my wand around and they did all the hard work! 🤗
@@bigeyezzzzzzz You are welcome. The "Solid Gold" band, whether the early in the series Dionne Warwick band or the band that you had put together, were an excellent group of musicians and the backup singers were as well. The entire show and every production and performance within was an ensemble, with each person having fit nicely as vital components of a product that became a well-polished product. Under your direction, they were the best music show band on television.
@@jasonburger3533 We were very fortunate to have an incredible bunch of people working together to create a wonderful show! So, thank you for recognizing that on so many levels!
Thank you, I’m glad you appreciated the way I arranged this duet for Dionne and Michael. The blend of their voices astounded me at the rehearsal, and it still astounds me today!
@@bigeyezzzzzzz Thanks for sharing your impressions. I get chills each time I listen to them. The arrangement you did on this duet is simply magic and I take this opportunity to say Thank You Mr. Miller for your talents and all the work you brought to Solid Gold. Excellent!!!💯💥
Oh yes, thank you for uploading this. Been waiting for this for the longest time. The arrangement was brilliantly genius.

Love 💕 so much 🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️somehow sounds even better now - in 2023 ‼️❤️❤️
You just don’t hear harmonies much anymore in current popular music. This was wonderful- two of the greatest singers ever.
Dionne can harmonize with anybody. Beautiful!
How I love mije voice and Dionne they are sooo unique and great
This woman! Who could she not sing well with?
And that ending is everything: 🎼 "I keep forgetting that I'll never love this way again." 🎶
Brilliant!
And to think she could have recorded "On My Own" with Mr. Blue-Eyed Soul himself, Michael McDonald.
Billy Dee=Smooth
Dionne Warwick=Smooth

Transition=Smooth
Any More Smoothness, And These Folks Are Going To Slide Off The Damn Stage.
Good Gosh!
How I miss, watching Solid Gold? Fond Memories.
When you see two great singers next to each other, it takes your breath away.
1:26 Dionne was absolutely living for that "hold on baby" by Michael. So good.
I was amazed at michael mcdonalds voice growing up when I first heard him as a toddler i thought he was black till this day it still resonates.
Michael your arrangements make it so clear why genius selected you. So smooth...
What a beautiful thing to say. 🤗 Thank you so much!
Wow ,what pair of voices
2 of my favorites.....
Miss those days when we had love songs that were with real talented singers.
Are you kidding me? These 2 together and that arrangement is pure gold.. no pun intended. fantastic! Thank you so much for sharing this one.
Thank you…and you’re very welcome!!
1:24 my temperature rose. There voices are so compatible. Michael voice never disappoints.
Thanks for this post. I remember watching it with my Dad and he said they should have cut an album together and he would have bought it.
The arrangement was from another planet, all the part of my body is jaming and dancing out of my mind
Thank you - that was my intention!!
Yes I have to concur!! Probably one of the best collaborations on here. So soulful and yet.. effortless. Thanks Michael❣️
