With thanks to my friend Pat Richardson for this, head of the Tommy Steele Society UK.

Tommy was part of this CBS American TV special, 'New York, New York' with Gene Kelly, Woody Allen, Gower Champion and Damita Jo Freeman from 14/02/1966.

It's interesting that Tommy would later in the 1980s go onto play the same role on stage which Gene Kelly played on screen in 'Singing in the Rain.'

Tommy often cites a story in TV and radio interviews that when he was appearing in 'Half a Sixpence' on Broadway, Gene Kelly visited him in his dressing room suggesting they do a special together, and this is the result of it.

If anyone has the complete show of 'New York, New York' then please let me know!
