Barry Manilow ~ Bandstand Boogie

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

Sorry folks but Barry is the fucking man! Never gets his due for the work he did, one of the icons of the 70's easily, and his jazz albums like 2am paradise cafe, with legends like Sarah Vaughan and Mel Torme should be put on a pedastol like others were.

I used to watch American Bandstand too.
