About this artist collection

The retained Barry Manilow solo identity and existing sourced biography remain unchanged. The 1975 reworked Could It Be Magic is kept separate from the 1973 Bell and earlier Featherbed productions. Blue and Big City Blues preserve their different duet partners.

First released means the earliest documented official public release of the selected recording. A year-only date does not assert a month or day. Later singles, chart years, compilations, remasters and reissues do not replace that date.
