HoneyHoneyBaby Most definitely it would be great, and I think someone like Idris Elba could pull it off, if not maybe a Taylor Diggs if he puts on a little weight but most definitely Idris Elba
Thank you so much for sharing this. I have been longing to see, hear and feel Donny Hathaway as I never had the opportunity to see him perform live. If I am not mistaken , there is not a lot of footage of his performances. So again , I thank you. Perhaps this can give the current generation inspiration on singing in whole notes, and bending notes for accent and improvisational acrobats. In other words in tune!!!
you're welcome. there are a few TV appearances (Flip Wilson, Soul!, Grammys) but to knowledge, this is the only video recording of him and Roberta Flack performing together in a concert setting. There are rumors that a live album was recorded from this show. If so, It would be great if someone cold restore the film to its full length and remix the audio.
Donny Hathaway such a great loss, he was the greatest then and now at least these are my thoughts the greatest male vocalist there ever was. I've heard a lot of male singers and non e could and can compare, this man was the greatest. Just my thoughts only. And Aretha Franklin well you all can tell where I'm going with this, she's the greatest female singer, again just my thoughts only. We all have our likes and dislikes.
@@reelblack Hey Reelback, Donny performed " For all we know" on the same pisode of Flip wilson were he sang "Put your hand in the hand". He did a episode of a 1972 Pbs show called "Vibrations" He also guest starred with Roberta Flack on a Bill Cosby tv show. In 1972. He also peformed on Johnmy Carsons tonight show. It would be enough footage for Rhino records or the Reeling in the years company to put a DVD collection together. I actually saw a little clip on a Atlantic records anniversary special footage of Donny in the studio with Arif Mardin
This whole video is priceless. Thank you for posting. Would you be able to edit and post their rendition of "Somewhere" as a stand-alone video? It just seem right for the times.
Aretha Franklin's "Baby I Love You" done country western style. Why would they do such a classic song in that genre? It seemed sacrilegious, I didn't like it.
Donny's voice is 🔥 that tone man,you can't teach that. Love Roberta too but she was taking up entirely too much of his time,tbh, but do you have the second half to this performance?
Im glad you enjoyed. not sure what more you want. it was a half hour tv special. there are end credits. the outtakes are in a vault or dumped in the river.
I didn't like this that much. Donny Hathaway was only on parts of this long film. Roberta Flack took too much time during this performance. Had she not done so, we all would've witnessed more DONNY'S treasured music. That's a damn shame. RIP Donny Hathaway.
This is incredible, two AMAZING voices. They don't do duets like this anymore. Wish I could've been there. ♥️ 🇦🇺
R.I.P. Donny Hathaway! Great duets with Roberta Flack! 👍🏽👍🏽🙏🏽
Thank you so much for this!!! I love these 2 so much. Pure perfection together. She deserves her flowers!!!!!
Finally some live moments with the great Donny Hathaway
I would love to see a biopic on Donny Hathaway, that would be a very interesting movie
BlackStarPower911 Yes, it would be, but who would play Donny?
HoneyHoneyBaby Most definitely it would be great, and I think someone like Idris Elba could pull it off, if not maybe a Taylor Diggs if he puts on a little weight but most definitely Idris Elba
Leslie Odom Jr. He's 36. Donny was 33 when he passed. He's same complexion and can act and ding his butt off
reelblack I just checked him out and he has an amazing voice, I think he could pull it off, a great pick.
Leslie Odom Jr. would be really good!
I have been searching for years to find anything live with Donny Hathaway.
Something is not right in this relationship.
What a treasure...worth its weight in gold...Thank you for uploading!!!!!

When Donny was in the music he was the most sane and in peace!!
God gives us that refuge!

🔊👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💯💯💯💯🎼🎵🎹👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍📢
Adore this performance, thank you ♥
These two were quite a duo.

Dope.
WOW!
Donny Hathaway has a new biopic coming out Spring of 2022 entitled “DHATH”, the trailer is on RUclips right now. Type in DHATH Teaser
Is there a track listing that I could search for these songs independently?
wow!
Oh yes my song. East harlem. N. Y.
Where are they now.?
I'm little disappointed they didn't sing The Closer I Get to you
that wasn't recorded until 1977. We recently interviewed James Mtume, who cowrote the song
ruclips.net/video/sMZSTW-hZMo/видео.html
the song wasn't created yet

That's what made it so hot. Two soul singers showing versatility. And their harmony was spot on.
Country Western? Done in a country fried funky front porch vibe. Country Western it is def not.... git your countries straight man.
@@jeffreywestervelt2671Exactly. This was funky and soulful.

@@reelblack Dangit, thanks for this video though, very scarce. Can you do a video of Stevie's Superwoman vs Donny's version, I'd appreciate it.
Yeah. I been waiting years to see a full performance
