-
This is from his LP "Live". I have it. An awesome double LP from him.

@reith61 Barry also played piano for a then-unknown Bette Midler when she was doing a musical stand-up act.

I've been a lifelong fan of Barry Manilow, and a big fan of his VSM. Thank you so much for this post!
-
What a great talent Barry Manilow is. This clip brought back many memories.
-
Barryy didn't sell out. This is how he made his money before he hit it big.
-
But didn't Manilow also do a commercial for "Tijuana Smalls" cigarillos? ("Tijuana Smalls... 10 for the road, baby, for you, maybe, you know who you are... you know who you are...") Anyone remember that one? Did he sing it or am I imagining it? And is it posted here anywhere??

@elc1960 Nope--I can tell you definitively that the singer of the "Meet the Swinger, Polaroid Swinger" ad (starring a very young Ali MacGraw) was sixties bubblegum idol Bobby Sherman. It's possible Manilow wrote it, don't know that for sure, but it was Sherman, the shy, stuttering Jeremy on "Here Come the Brides" and (briefly) the star of the "Partridge Family" spin-off "Getting Together," who sang the jingle.

@Madnessonman this is how he made a living at first. Like an actor doing commercials or soaps.
This is a great song.
I have the record and now have it on youtube now
