The Manhattan Transfer - "Route 66" (Live) ABC TV "Fridays" (1981)

This is simply, one awesome performance, not only by The Manhattan Transfer, but every one of their musicians! "Route 66", performed on ABC TV's late night comedy show, "Fridays". The group is introduced by guest star, the late Marty Feldman.

Smoothest sounding quartet of all time. Only the Anonymous Four come close to these extraordinary singers.

That's a hell of a rhythm section they've got there. It would be so easy for them to over-play this tune.

That host looked like he needed a sedagive. 🤣🤣

I had no idea Marty Feldman was ever on that show. The musical acts were fantastic, in many ways better than SNL overall. But there was just too much drug humor.
