The Salsoul Orchestra - Magic Bird of Fire: “On Carol Burnett’s final show in 1978, The Ernie Flatt Dancers perform to ‘Magic Bird Of Fire’ by Vincent Montana, Jr. & The Salsoul Orchestra. The 'Firebird’ is a 1910 ballet by Igor Stravinsky which is based on Russian Folk Tales of the magical glowing bird of the same name that is both a blessing and a curse to its capture. Vincent Montana, Jr. recorded his own disco version in 1977 with the Salsoul Orchestra calling the piece 'Magic Bird Of Fire’ on his Magic Journey LP. It took Montana one month to arrange and orchestrate this masterpiece. Natives to Philadelphia will recognize the end of this song as the theme song to Channel 17 for 8 years.” (YouTube, via mrpinky; see previously)
