This is the very FIRST Episode from the VERY FIRST Season of Paramount's hit 80s TV series, "SOLID GOLD", for which I, Michael Miller, was the Musical Director and Theme Composer! Enjoy performances by our host, DIONNE WARWICK and the Solid Gold Dancers, as well as our guests, Irene Cara, Paul Anka, Johnny Lee, Marty Cohen, Linda Rondstadt, Steve Allen, Mickey Gilley, Chuck Berry and Larry Graham.

At 14:32, Dionne sings her hit, “NO NIGHT SO LONG”, and at 42:51, Dionne and Paul Anka sing the first duet I ever arranged for Solid Gold, which juxtaposed their hits, “Put Your Head on My Shoulders”, “This Girl’s in Love” and “Diana”.
