Righteous Brothers & Marilyn McCoo sing Soul & Inspiration SOLID GOLD, 1982

With props and nods to RobbyBobbyOh who just posted an awesome version of Marilyn McCoo & Billy Davis Jr. performing this song with the 5th Dimension from their album of the same name....Here's Marilyn and the Righteous Brothers singing a duet of her guests' big hit, Soul & Inspiration on SOLID GOLD season 2, May 1982. Great solos as well as three-part harmonies from some of the best in the music biz! Arranged/produced by Solid Gold musical director Michael Miller.

Dan, this version of the classic is charming--3 consummate pros doing their thing with yes, "silky soul and combined inspiration!" I appreciate the "prop & nods." Back at ya with blessings from your friends at FOREVER 5th DIMENSION.

Marilyn overpowered many of the other performers on Solid Gold. She's got such a dynamite voice. This, though, is a nice blending of 3 spectacular talents.

prefer the purity of the original Righteous Brothers original recording...she's a gr8 singer but she shouldn't mess with this particular song..she's too slick sounding and spoils it..just my opinion

[corkpopfrance]

as time goes on, this is like fine wine. It will age well

[LittleLupeLu]

My god, why?! She teinted this great song.

I lot of people won't give the show its "props," but if you think about it, Solid Gold has preserved classic performances of great singers, musicians, and performers while they still had their "gifts" in place. Just like the Ed Sullivan Show, Hullabalu, Shindig, American Bandstand, and of course, Soul Train, we will all come to appreciate Solid Gold for its content and its role in the preservation of art.
