I'm back to watching an episode of Musical Comedy Tonight with Patti LaBelle singing Heat Wave. It's interesting because her performance is electric. Her amazing voice is all over the place, all in service of the song. The dancers are wonderful. And the audience is sitting on its hands in awe of every word. When she finishes, they start to applaud and they can barely stop themselves. Wow, what manners. So unlike today. She was never interrupted with whoops and hollers or any of that nonsense.
