Ray Charles In Dinah! (1979)

Copy from a microfilm
of the Daily World article.
The Atlanta Daily World of 19 April 1979 showed a photo of Ray Charles and Dinah Shore sitting together for a studio interview. The TV program was "to be seen in the near future".

 From the comments:
"This was an episode of Dinah & Friends, which aired in late May 1979 in most markets. Other guests included Kenny Rogers and Debby Boone. The theme was 'Dinah and the Hitmakers'."

Update 20 February 2019:
It turns out that Dinah seduced Ray into an impromptu musical conversation with Kenny Rogers. Ray hit some notes of Georgia, Take These Chains From My Heart and some boogies, and did a little duet on Crying Time with Kenny.
The TV shows they briefly discussed were this and that one.
