We will tee off at 9:00 a.m. at the world-class Ojai Country Club, one of the first great golf courses in California. Later that evening Michael and Dave will perform with their great bands and surprise musical guests. The evening will include a cocktail/dinner reception, silent and live auctions.

Gloria, you're an angel, it worked perfectly, thank you so much! BTW, I don't think this interview was done in '98, I think it was done in '97. Michael said his next album would be released in 47 days and this was before the gala weekend in September back then. I remember Michael promoting "All that matters" everywhere in November '97 because I was in the hospital with my youngest at the time. The album he released in '98 was "My secret passion" released on January 20. Now, if he would have been talking about "Timeless 2", which I'm not sure what month it was released in '99, it would have had to be way after the gala weekend... I'm sorry, amateur detective here! lol Sorry guys, I'm too technical for my own good... :D Take care Gloria and thanks again. Big hugs, sincerely, Sylvie from Canada

Here is an interview with Michael the day before his Live By Request Appearance on March 17, 1998 and he is saying the album he is releasing in January is My Secret Passion. I do know he sang opera during the show but All That Matters was the album he was promoting the most at that time. Not sure if this helps with your timeline, Sylvie...but a bit of backup for what you are saying.

 

Singer Michael Bolton warming up for A&E's live request show Tuesday

JEAN PRESCOTT Knight Ridder Newspapers

MON 03/16/1998 Houston Chronicle, Section Houston, Page 4, 2 STAR Edition

 
 
The haircut's an improvement, to be sure. But Michael Bolton wants to talk about something more substantial than his tonsorial makeover, and despite the fact that he's having "a business day from hell," he grants 20 minutes to talk up his appearance on A&E's popular live-music series Live by Request (8 p.m. Tuesday).

"What you could write on a piece of paper is not what's valuable about classical music," the pop icon begins a bit defensively. He undoubtedly anticipates questions about his January release, My Secret Passion: The Arias, a collection inspired by Bolton's concert turns with Placido Domingo and Luciano Pavarotti. Critics have savaged Secret Passion, though that hasn't kept it from topping Billboard's classical charts.

"The dots on paper are the form, like a computer," he says with unexpected passion. "The masters created an incredible wellspring for people who love the way the music makes them feel."

We confess an ignorance of opera, which seems to help Bolton relax.

"When it comes down to it, I fell in love with these arias because I was invited to sing with Pavarotti, and I had only a few days to prepare.

"So I started listening, and I couldn't tell you - I basically learned like an infant - touching, feeling, observing.

"I was totally blown away."

Apparently the pressure's been building for decades.

"What I did was I fell in love with music when I was 6 or 7," Bolton says. "I was the kid people would ask, `How does this song go?' I listened to radio, to records, my brother's collection. My mother was very much into music, and we all sang when we were kids."

He's been writing songs for years, he says, but by ear - it's been "on feel. That's what makes people come and sit for two or three hours. It's about what moves you."

Unfortunately, he says, many people miss out on powerful, beautiful music because they're intimidated. "And the composers didn't want that," he says. "These people dreamt it, thought it, lived it."

To make the masterpieces on Secret Passion more accessible, he insisted a booklet be included. "I decided if Sony didn't want to pay for it, I'd pay, but I thought it was important for people to have the moment set up."

He says he hopes to be able to talk with some callers on the air Tuesday, "even by e-mail, to find out more background, find out what moves them about the music they're requesting."
