For two decades, Mike Douglas's name was synonymous with television entertainment in America. The Mike Douglas Show, which aired each weekday, became the prototype for all future talk shows that sought to combine spontaneous conversation—on virtually any subject—with the best in entertainment. In those twenty years and more than four thousand shows, virtually all the great performers—actors, singers, comics—and many outstanding sports figures and prominent statesmen, Presidents included, appeared with Mike, performing and chatting informally in front of the show's many millions of viewers.
Eric first performed on The Mike Douglas Show in 1973 to promote Raspberries' Side 3 LP and returned for this appearance to sing songs from his new solo album, Change of Heart.
Appearing with Eric on the show was soap opera star Susan Lucci, comedienne Brett Somers and a filmed piece where Mike visited the set of Battlestar Gallactica. Eric also preformed "Baby I Need Your Lovin'," "All By Myself" and accompanied Mike on piano for "Never Gonna Fall In Love Again."
