In 1975, Helen Reddy hosted The Midnight Special. Friday nights, Helen performed and I stayed awake always hoping for more Helen... Now 45 years later- I still hope for more. I’ve always hoped for release of more Midnight Special’s with Helen!
Helen closed the show, “Good morning and have a fabulous weekend,” and sang “I Am Woman.” I hope my additions to YouTube will make people feel good and remember to Celebrate the work of Helen Reddy! 1941-2020
Helen was a remarkable live performer and a brilliant interpreter of songs; I don’t know if people know her great range and humor. I’ve admired and enjoyed Helen Reddy all my life. I first saw her in concert right around this time, Peter Allen opened in Des Moines, Iowa when I was 5 years old.
I am posting these rare recordings as a public service before they are lost to time. People all over the world were deeply touched by Helen Reddy. She shared generously through her work. Now we Celebrate all the Good and all the Love that is right here.
