- 1. Appearing on the 3rd annual "American Music Awards" Helen joins
- Lou Rawls, as they present one of the awards for the evening. 2/83
-
- 2. During this exceptional interview from "Hour Magazine" Helen reflects upon many
- things in her life and career. Even though Gary Collins, means well, his line of
- questioning seems to be a bit frank and to the point. Because her name has
- been in the headlines for several months, he asks about her recent divorce and
- and how Jeff is handling the circumstances, that led them to separate. Gary
- goes on to inquire about their son, touching upon the custody battle, and how
- he is coping with the situation, both at home and in school. Interestingly, Helen
- comments only briefly on some of the issues and completely side-steps how her
- ex-husband is doing. Instead she prefers to take a "higher approach" by talking
- about her recent marriage to Milton Ruth, who joins her during the last few minutes
- of the interview. Watching this moment, now after all these years, I couldn't
- help but wonder if they are still together. At the beginning of the interview,
- they talked briefly about her hit song "I am woman" and how the success of
- that one song, changed her career. Which lead them to discuss her current
- album, and the video for "Imagination." Lucky for us, they present a portion
- of the video. Overall, this was really a very good interview, with wonderful
- full screen closeups! 5/84
-
- 3. Returning to the set of "Hour Magazine" this next moment, seems like a breath of
- fresh air, compared to the previous appearance. Stepping from the shadows, Helen
- looks simply radiant, as she performs a stirring rendition of her signature song,
- "I am woman." It's hard not to notice the conviction in her voice; it seems as if the
- lyrics have been applied directly to her life. You can see the light in her eyes! She
- simply sparkles! As she visits with the host, Gary Collins, she mentions the impact
- this song had on her life and career. She also talks about many of the other songs
- that are associated with her, all of which, are her favorites! 2/87
-
- 4. Upon the "Centennial Celebration of Australia" Helen makes
- a special appearance, talking about her homeland.
12/87
-
- 5. Appearing on the late night program "My talk show" Helen seems a bit
- out of place, among the cast of these "wacky off beat characters." Even though she
- has clearly stopped by to promote her new album "Feels so young" she happens to
- get caught up in the storyline, where one of the ladies is having a baby. Interestingly,
- as Helen gets involved, you have to wonder if her lines are "scripted" or if she is just
- reacting to the "craziness" around her! 5/90
-
- 6. Making a delightful appearance on the "Vicki" show, Helen joins the rest of the
- guests, as they discuss the interest surrounding "international women." Throughout
- the hour, they talk about many things. Later in the program, Helen steps to the
- stage to perform an updated version of her hit song, "I am woman." 9/94
-
- 7. Lending her incredible voice, to a holiday favorite,
- Helen makes a wonderful appearance on the television special
- "Hollywood Fantasy Christmas." 10/94
-
- 8. Taking a page from "People" magazine, "Entertainment Tonight" featured
- a segment "Where are they now?" Which included a delightful moment with
- Helen! She looks simply radiant! It's so nice to see her again! 6/96
- for taking the time to read through these rather lengthy descriptions!
- I know it seems rather "incredible" to believe!
- All these moments from the past.
- Moments that you might have missed recording.
- And those that you have only heard about!
Throughout the years, I've shared many of these clips from my collection
- with my friends, and they have always been astounded by all the appearances
- that I was able to record. To ensure the highest quality possible, I use a "dual deck"
- vcr whenever I'm sharing any of these moments from my collection.
- I forward to hearing back from you.
