What a beautiful song... this is a GREAT performance by Chuck Mangione and Marilyn McCoo, live on Solid Gold in the 1981-82 season. Per Wikipedia, "Mangione's composition Chase the Clouds Away was used at the 1976 Summer Olympics, with a later composition, Give It All You Got, being used as the theme to the 1980 Winter Olympic Games, held in Lake Placid, New York. He performed it live at the closing ceremonies, which were televised globally..." Arranged and produced by Solid Gold's musical director, Michael Miller.

    Somehow, I cant get this one...Chase the Clouds Away" to load and play. The screen repeatedly says "An error has occurred. Please try again".

    Could you please reload it. It's one of my favorites. Fortunately the rest seem to play.

  • Dorycpt - it seems to be playing now. Sometimes YouTube just misbehaves. Thanks for all the nice comments. Hope you enjoy Chase the Clouds Away... it's really beautiful!

  • we played this in our jazz band... nowhere near as good as he is

    

  • his music touches the sky and reaches the inner reaches of our soul-- fantastic, awesome words to describe a tremdous artist

  • Sublime...they are so together --especially in the ending, the voice and the horn are so tuned, it's just too fine for words to say --

  • It's great to see Chuck so young in this video. I saw him last when he played in Warsaw, and he looked really old... But still, as soon as he took his flugelhorn in hand, he instantly became young again :)

  • WHAT AN AWESOME COMBINATION!!!!!!!!!

    I'VE BEEN A "CHUCK" FAN FOR OVER 50 YEARS!!

  • @NamoradoTX U r  absolutely right. Esther has better rendition of that classic.

  • Pure heaven. What else can I say.

  • special performance by all involved.. great..nice post

  • Very impressed by Marilyn.  Not an easy song to learn. She did a great job!

  • chuck mangione <3
