Here's Marilyn McCoo and Solid Gold guest Chuck Mangione performing the Fifth Dimension classic, One Less Bell to Answer. I taped this in 1983-84 timeframe, and the static was from lousy reception on my TV -- sorry about that! Still, Marilyn gives a nice live performance and Chuck Mangione plays beautiful trumpet. Hope my fellow McCoo-fans and Fifth Dimension fans enjoy this live performance from ~25 years ago!

  • Even with the messed up sound--it's still great. It's a shame they didn't have about 5 minutes to really get into it--to elongate it into an actual jazz number. So much talent!

  • Thanks, Branner, for the nice comments. I really wish I had a clean version of this one, but maybe someone else with Solid Gold footage will post it some day. I'm still looking for a live version of "Never My Love" or "Love's Lines Angles and Rhymes" from the 70's or 80's, but don't remember seeing either of those on Solid Gold.

  • Marilyn really shined with the proper song. She wasn't adept with every style.

    But, when she had the right song, she was in a league of her own.

  • I wonder why Marilyn did not sing this song in a lace lingerie. Oh silly me...Marilyn has class and can actually sing there is no need for her to come out half naked. I don't know what I was thinking (Beyonce, Rihanna, GaGa, and all the rest).

  • God is she beautiful, with such class. Her voice is so pure and sweet. Watched solid gold just to see her.

  • I fall in love with Marilyn every time I hear her voice.She is so very beautiful.

  • I've loved this woman since I was 18. Whitney could've been this good but no one else today could've touched Marilyn's stage presence or talent.

  • For those who don't know, this is the lady who made this song a hit while with the Fifth Dimension in 1970. -Not "Glee".

  • Billy Davis You gotta be the luckiest Man on this Earth.

    'Nuff said.

  • One of music's most beautiful women with a voice to match!

  • Not only is Chuck amazing on the horn, he can play the hell out of that Rhodes electric piano!

    And Marilyn... well, there aren't words good enough to describe her. :D

  • its hard to put into words on how amazing her voice is
