Fabulous live version of My Sweet Lord - performed by an array of stars and sung by Billy Preston. At a George Harrison tribute concert. George's son Dhani can be seen in the foreground on acoustic.

Really good musical
Once again was staggered how many songs Frankie valli had made
I thought the singer in the show had a better voice than Frankie
Surely the writers took the title from Kojak’s catchphrase?


Never thought of that! :lol:

Yes their catalogue is impressive.

Never saw the musical. I'm not a big musical theatre man really.

Same here but!
In Vegas some years ago mrs Vcc booked us a circus Soleil show. "Love" Based on remastered Beatles music over seen by Mcartney, Ringo, Yoko and Harrisons son and wife, the music re-mastering it literally brought me to tears it was a sensory overload it was that good next to Elton John live it the next best show I have seen.

Just listening to Simon & Garfunkel’s greatest hits. An album I can pick up every now and then and really enjoy. Such wonderful harmonies and crafted songs.
