WALK IN LOVE/MANHATTAN TRANSFER WITH LAUREL MASSÉ.

[@myroseaccount]

I was 12 years old when I saw this on the Two Ronnies in 1978. I was just about to enter puberty. Seeing Laurel sing and perform this had a profound effect on me that saturday night when this came on! 30 years later as a man and watching it again I can see why her MOVEMENT stirred all sorts of new and unfamiliar feelings in that 12 year old Boy! True class, grace and talent. Simply not enough of this around anymore! I hope she is well wherever she is now.

[@andydawson5587]

Exactly my memory too! How many lads remember that Two Ronnies evening because of Lauren?!

[@garyfrancis6193]

Same still with me at 74.

[@johnwilloughby-3669]

I remember seeing this on The Two Ronnies Show, Saturday night in 1978. I also heard it every morning on the Terry Wogan Radio show, as I was eating my Weetabix and getting ready for school. Needless to say this song got into my head. I will never forget this performance.

[@JamesWarman-m7u]

The first single I ever bought from the record shop❤

[@flabbybum9562]

Laurel's the full package. The looks, the moves, the voice.

[@gendolad]

Beautiful, graceful, romantic. Just what is needed in these days of meaningless so called love songs. Laurel Masse is gorgeous, sweet voice, I could play this for ever. Thanks for posting.

[@steveflor9942]

Exquisite Laurel. Beautiful instrument. Beautiful sense of pitch. Sense of song coloration.... She's got everything...including moves.

[@mauriceogrady4447]

Steve. Agreed. Beautiful piece of music And definitely something Beautiful about Laurel

[@BogdanKhmelnitsky-r3m]

@@mauriceogrady4447 Unity of form and content.

[@darrenlucas2768]

A beautiful song from a more beautiful time. This woman is making love to her audience.... Confident beyond words.i watched her as a child performing this back in the 70,s and felt moved even then,maybe my hormones got triggered that day, who knows Smile

[@mauriceogrady4447]

Darren i completely understand .loved this woman and this song since I witnessed both

[@thewaywelivenow6406]

Beautiful woman, beautiful voice. A very happy late 70s memory.

[@canarsie56]

This is absolutely beautiful, Laurel's performance was flawless-

[@poppybright6695]

This is gentle, tender, truly so loving. A great song I loved as a young teenager. They don't do it like this anymore.

[@Tiffany.1970]

just watching this beautiful video n listening to Manhattan transfer makes me want to be back in 1978 such a beautiful time with a cool ride a 1977 trans am in gold n 6.6 litre

[@robbybobbyoh]

Beguiling interpretation from a beautiful songbird, inside and out...Laurel is just as lovely today, by the way...saw her this past Christmas season in concert in NYC...delightful and such a smart lady, too! Bless her radiant spirit, always!

[@TheEctomorph]

@myroseaccount I am not surprised that you had the hots for the female vocalist of Manhattan Transfer when you were twelve years of age, back in '78. She was a VERY attractive/fanciable young woman ...... and, what is more, she had a lovely voice as well, so she did. "Walk In Love" was - and indeed still is - a great single. It reached the lower echelons of The Top 20 in the early part of 1978 (if memory serves) but it deserved to be a MUCH bigger hit that it actually was.

[@glynjones8190]

Just love this beautiful sweet song ever since I first heard it played

[@Tiffany.1970]

a way to describe this song in a way .... a warm moonlit night sat in a cool bar with a 77 trans am black parked outside in back listening to Manhattan transfer back when this song was written with a loved one a great end to the night walking on a moonlit beach next to a fire n some fine wine simply perfect way to end the night I say xx 👍👍👍😉

[@MrInk27]

there is something hypnotising about the way this artist moves

[@holydiver73]

My dad had the Pastiche album and I loved this song when I was 5. Haven't heard it in so long though, thanks for posting. Laurel is probably the most desireable woman that ever lived.

[@texetera]

I heard this on the radio today and it took me right back to the 70's. Great song/singer/group. I say this all the time : we didn't realize how good it was at the time, and then it's gone. I am on a mission now to get their greatest hits and listen all over again.

[@fionadynowski1505]

Laurel has such a pure natural,beautiful voice...really missed her when she left the group.

[@davespeed45]

Fantastic music and the lead singer is beautiful.

[@Canalboyable]

I couldn't agree more. What a stunning lady and a 4 octave voice. She can charm the birds from the boughs.

[@Sprangleweed]

This is just beautiful, both to hear and to see. Laurel is gorgeous and has a great voice. How music should be, but these days so rarely is.

[@NandyDagondon]

My first opportunity to hear Laurel's sweet voice. Thanks for posting.

[@TheHumbuckerboy]

Laurel is so beautiful here !

[@neverendingseventeen]

beautiful dancing, I wonder if she studied Hula dancing, looks so very close.......what a voice, leaves me speechless....Wow...this group always sang beautifully, thank you for posting this......doug

[@nemo227]

This song, this video, this arrangement, this presentation is strangely alluring. I've enjoyed hearing this song many times before by others and they were all good but this one is good, excellent, in a special way. I guess that's creativity.

[@BogdanKhmelnitsky-r3m]

Organic, style, tenderness! Мagic woman! The _new Manhattan_ no songing like this!

[@siliconesal]

Laurel was captivating… fabulous group

[@colinbrown9549]

Couldn't agree more, I love this somg

[@Slarti]

I love The Manhattan Transfer even more now - Laurel is like a goddess :)

[@michelleevans9878]

This wonderful song has a real James Bond " Moonwalker" vibe going on. So Timeless !!!

[@wizzwamf]

from the two ronnies they really made this group sparkle with glamour gorgeous girls , fun , amazing costumes and sets

[@Topgooner01]

Beautiful, sublime, or any other wonderful accolade you can bestow upon this gem of a song!

[@hs19601130]

歌きわめて美しく上手。天才です。この人は。

[@h49h49h49]

It wasn't a different world, just different people. Laurel certainly brightened up my world - then and now.

[@ewaf88]

Mmmmm I bought this single back in 77 - I just love them

[@Jojoseahorse]

Lucky lady, that God blessed her with that voice AND that figure!

[@myasmate]

What a beautiful,sensual,captivating performance and song.Todays performers take note.

[@Tiffany.1970]

wud love to time travel back to the late 1970s let's think we had Saturday night fever n grease n the bee gees n Tony manero n the famous disco 2001 oddssey in Brooklyn n the cool evel knievel oh boy a perfect time xx

[@goonerbrain59]

wot a gorgeous song sung by a gorgeous lady. great band 2.

[@hipocampelofantocame]

Seven years later, I'm going to say that this performance by Laurel takes me there and back (Paul Galico). Kudos!

[@clintyboy25]

i was actually at the show in shepherds bush in 1978,i was 10,happy days,,hope Laurel and the gang are in good health

[@stephenhayes7575]

Great memories where the time gone

[@bunnyhop3211]

Saw them live, they were so good. This is beautiful.

[@christophermason9291]

Still wonderful. So romantic.

[@angeltwinstv6318]

Wow nice song done for you

[@flamingarrow167]

Beautiful, classy and sensual. Love it !

[@neorich59]

I loved Man-Tran's version of "Tuxedo Junction" but when this came out, it blew me away. In fact, the whole album this comes from "Pastiche," is full of similar gems, some in "40's style," but others, were more, for the time, contemporary efforts.. The album was "unavailable," for years, but can be found on C.D. or downloaded, these days..well worth a look!

[@draskill1]

Taken From the Bands Pastiche Album. Laurel is stunning here both visually and vocally.

[@scalpsie]

Just wonderful ....memories.

[@tonystone3397]

Beautiful, I remember this so well, happy carefree days.

[@manray10ify]

awesome , love her , great group , they do some classic songs.

[@AndrewNeale-go9eq]

A beautiful song, I like this version better than the original.

[@midianholic]

What a beautiful voice.

[@sheen4dean71]

Quality! Great music, great vocals, evoking wonderful memories.

[@Tiffany.1970]

a beautiful song and a beautiful woman oh for sure she is a lovely singer n knows hows to dance so gracefully xx

[@stevewatson4298]

remember listening to this on works radio at you and me productions in 1978 lovely sound

[@thevanguardsofmanhood8463]

Good song. I remeber this was plaed on the Two Ronnies a few years ago. Something very innocent about that period in history. Good times.

[@markandresen1]

What a lovely voice.......................................................................as well.

[@orangefunk]

massively different world mate... not just different people... technology, communications, media, music industry, end of cold war, etc... BTw. I have this track on an old John Klemmer LP (sax) from 1978 called Arabesque. I did not realise it was even the same tune as the way its played is not quite like this... he was the original composer btw...

[@noddyneeds]

That was beautiful, almost makes me want to be in love again.

[@jnrdryden1]

As a polynesian i couldn't wipe the WTF smile of my face watching this. I love MHT but this was so unexpected.

[@rtoejoman]

Hermosísima Laurel Masee y gran cantante...

[@GrezH]

This was a great single - This on the A side and "Four Brothers" on the flip. Happy Days

[@danielraynolds9502]

This song is so very fascinating indeed. It sounds and looks like a romantic dream.

[@anthonysmith9366]

This is how love sound,s. I remember long ago feeling like this, what on earth happen,s ? It never repeat,s you just keep chasing that feeling. I close my eyes listening to this then open my eyes at the end and realise I was dreaming about how I used to feel, sad is,nt it. I know it will never come back, impossible to replace that feeling of love but not knowing you are in love. What a unhappy mess, bugger me, lonely is a man without love, (englebert).

[@melissabell29]

one of my fave songs!!

[@jamesm4299]

This song is so lovely and lyrics are too... I can't get tired of hearing this song many times...

[@knuteboy3778]

I just discovered this woman. I'm in love..lol. She has a passing resemblance to Susan Sarandon, who I also love. Nice song, too!

[@davefuller3311]

Very, very nice. Thank you for posting this.

[@peterdavey4932]

I love this sing I remember this sing from the 70 I hope you enjoy it 👍

[@linda164]

Laurel! Went to high school with you at John Jay - Linda Serino, remember? I was one of the hippies with Marie and Andy Horn....

[@soulman1419]

Nice song from nice times ✌🏻

[@PoetryMan11]

Laurel Masse' preceded Cheryl Bentyne in MT and only dropped out because of a terrible auto accident that nearly killed her and required a long rehab. Wow--besides a beautiful voice she does a pretty good hula dance too!

[@maurisegrant3486]

just beautiful

[@draskill1]

Taken from the album " Pastiche " which had a long run in the UK charts and of course featuring the stunning Laurel . These are a wonderful band.

[@TheRaptor22f]

Priceless music.

[@ricksuegreen1753]

When I listen to this, it's kind of got that feel of AWB's "ATLANTIC AVENUE"!

[@roryobrien2318]

Laurel. Gorgeous.

[@paulkent1964]

She is beautiful

[@wonhung]

That womans hips should carry a health warning, I'm still having flashbacks & palpitations nearly 40 years on. ;-)

[@rphuntarchive1]

[@luisfranciscopineiro2839]

maravillosa cancion

[@crimsonrush]

@myasmate Iknow what you mean - I felt like she was singing to ME - and I am sure many other listeners had the same experience. The sign of a truly magical performance.

[@hipocampelofantocame]

Laurel is the definition sublime.

[@vivianbolderson8317]

Fabulous memories

[@moggiee1]

Laurel sings and dances so sensually

[@xxpiggystardustxx4241]

i totally agree

[@Bwommp]

The song and the singer are both so sexy

[@andyt3277]

Beautifullll...

[@Wolfsky9]

Laurel was a fantastic talent--------it's both a shame & a blessing that she & MT went their own ways back in late '78. -------------------WolfSky9, 74 y/o

[@mauriceogrady4447]

Always had a crush on this woman

[@mauriceogrady4447]

[@hs19601130]

とけてしまうほど美しい。ローレルは本来なら大スターです。ちゃめっけたっぷりで少しイモ臭くてかわいいです。歌は絶品です。

[@bigtimemusicfans]

Subtlety and Class. And, it ascends.

[@adrianwilliams717]

Brings back many memories... sigh!
