Rare 1966 performance on "Not Only, But Also" with Marion Montgomery and Dudley Moore. Introduced by Peter Cook.
Just oozing talent, happiness, fun and positivity! Love it!
All the Girls loved Dudley.
Boy did they have fun with that, wonderful!😂
Not long before she died, Marion made a beautiful CD with just about the greatest version ever of "Lazy Afternoon". That song was made for her beautiful voice. She was a unique talent.
What a talent Dudley Moore was: pianist, composer, comedian, movie actor all in one. What a shame his love life didn't go well. His slow death at 66 was quite tragic.
Fabulous fabulous fabulous !
Love this 💕
11 years ago, but still maturing into a great vintage. Beautiful, just fabulous 👌
This clip on it's own makes TH-cam worthwhile.
Huge debt to Sarah Vaughn here, but hey if you're going to cop a style, pick a really good and difficult one and go for it. She does great.
I keep coming back to this ❤… partly just to hear him say ‘yes please’
Wonderful! ❤
Only dud could scat like this
Oh man, oh man .....
No
What couple - I mean Laurie Holloway and Marion. She a great person and jazz singer and he a talented arranger and pianist who deserved much more acclaim.
One of my favourite perfomances ever.
know this version from doris day and andre previn- song make high
Watched this over and over. Terrific
I had the pleasure of sharing a pair of moleskin trousers with Marian in a particularly impoverished period in our lives. Moleskins, baked beans and ovaltine. These were the days of our lives.
Superb. Oh! That he had concentrated on his jazz. Ah well.
Reminds me of Karen Carpenter. She just might be the only singer ever who was truly her equal....
Just beautiful! This is the essence of jazz. What a pianist and the bass player is unbelievable ( ?Pete Morgan) . Should be a desert island jazz classic. Chris Karam is such a sensitive drummer as well - what a trio.❤️
Yeah... ☝️😎
Wow, I had no idea about Dudley Moore. Wow
God, forgot about Marion, beautiful voice
Never saw this before...wonderful. I saw Marion live with Richard Rodney Bennett in Belfast years ago. What a night. Dudley's scat is extraordinary, especially considering he was accompanying too.
Fabulous. Dudley's humour is already shining through and what a great jazz pianist too. Marian died from passive smoking just like Roy Castle it seems. Very sad. Both these artists deserved a lot more coverage on TV and radio.
Absolutely Delightful.
One of the most enjoyable jazz vocal performances ever! Worth many many watches
Never tire of seeing this clip, his lovely smile would light up any room. RIP Marian and Dud you were a one off
A lot is said about comic timing…. And of course music is timing……Here is the the epitome of both
What a beautiful, funny and stylish moment in time from two massive talents
I had no idea Mr. Moore could play the piano
I had the pleasure of singing with Marion in a West End show called Lionel in the late 70s. I was just a kid but the memory stays with me. And what a beautiful person she was . So sad to hear she passed away a few years ago. That voice will live on.
Thank you for this gem.
Im looking to get in touch with Laurie about a musical piece. Can you respond if you have contact details.
It’s just beautiful. What talents we have been lucky enough to see and hear. So spontaneous, a live recording and could have been done time after time with a different but equally beautiful result. I’m not saying it can’t be done nowadays - but it can’t! RIP both.
As someone now 63 yrs of age, I would love the TV shows at the weekend on UK TV in the 70s and 80s, as there was always a chance that Marion would be on and occasionally Dudley too but not often playing, which was a great shame, as he was such an accomplished jazz pianist. What a lovely warm lady and fantastic singer Marion Montgomery was. Her voice and phrasing was a perfect match for jazz. And this recording!!!....what an absolute gem!! Thank you Laurie Holloway so much for posting this. Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant. Warm regards from the Giant’s Causeway Coast of Northern Ireland. 😀👍☘️
I was lucky enough to see Marion three times. Once with RR Bennett, again with Barney Kessel and lastly with Laurie. She was sensational every time.
What a voice for jazz... Isn't she exceptional
❤🎉😂
What was that chord in the end? Dudley, once a comedian.......
Gb7 #11 (Gb7 in left hand and Ab major chord in right hand)
This kind of thing is funny at some home party but i wouldn't like to be at the concert or a club with this inside clowning going on. I'm a fan of both of these talented performers, BTW.
Just came from Derek and Clive. Talk about a contrast.
Thanks for sharing this video - just beautiful! What a talented group of people - sounds as smooth as silk…
The most impressive thing about Dudley's falsetto is that he's actually doubling every note he sings on the piano - and most of them are probably improvised. Not easy at all!
Dudley Moore was a fabulous musician
Absolutely amazing. Dudley is a genius, and Marion is stunning, what a fantastic and funny performance.
An Arcadian age, when people seemed more solid and real and sincere. We know they had their hang-ups and Dud suffered more than most, but, they just seem weightier than most of what passes as entertainers today.
Sometimes I get the annoying feeling that people back then (even comedians) looked and feeld more -how can I put it?- adult. As if, ever since, people refuse to grow up, looking more like overgrown teenagers...
