On April 5, 2010 (from 9 to 10 pm, US time), Tv One will air an episode of their Unsung series, entitled "Unsung Uncut". It will feature full length performances by many artists featured in this series including Shalamar, Bootsy Collins and the one and only Donny Hathaway. Donny will be performing "The Ghetto" from his May 14, 1970 appearance on the Soul show.
Thanks Steve.
PS : If someone could record it, I would appreciate a copy. Thanks.
EDIT : UNFORTUNATELY, THE GHETTO WAS NOT BROADCASTED. "PUT THE HAND IN THE HAND" FROM THE FLIP WILSON SHOW (1972) WAS AIRED INSTEAD.
wow. hopefully this ends up on youtube. tough to find footage of the man. great site by the way!
ReplyDeleteI am from Europe !! Did anybody record this ??
ReplyDeleteShalamar and Donny H - I would loveeeeee to see that
I saw the entire Unsung UnCut, was dissappointed they didn't get a chance to air the full footage of the ghetto he performed @ the Soul Show in 1970. I first recall that shot shown from the documentary they did on him a few years ago.
ReplyDeleteWas dissapointed that The Ghetto he did live at the 1970 Soul Show didn't make the final cut for UnSung UnCut but amazed they added Put Your Hands in the Hand he did on the Flip Wilson Show. Hope to God someone has a real good copy of this full footage of the peformance I'm dying to see.
