		Approached by ex-Token Hank Medress with song 'Candida' he recut the vocal as a favour, specifying anonymous release, choosing name Dawn from a daughter of a Bell Records promo man; a smash no. 3 USA/9 UK resulted.
		From late '73 label credit was Tony Orlando and Dawn; another US no. 1 was revival of Jerry Butler '60 hit 'He Will Break Your Heart', retitled 'He Don't Love You (Like I Love You)' '75.
		His career with Dawn had little street credibility; it is his tragedy that he is remembered for the schmaltz, while the Brill Building demos were first-rate as pop went in that era.

		He's known the world over for his heyday with Dawn, but that glittering 1970's whirl was just one chapter in Tony Orlando's rich life.
		Orlando began his showbiz career as a teen heartthrob with the single "Halfway to Paradise" and had a second successful act as a record company A&R man before he was lured back into the limelight as a performer.
		Orlando succumbed to one of the familiar antidotes to the pressures of a big life: drug use, with its predictable toll on family and friendships.

	DVD Verdict Review - Tony Orlando And Dawn: The Ultimate Collection
		The Tony Orlando and Dawn Show was the surprise hit of July, 1974 and earned the group an extended TV contract that would last through December, 1976.
		Orlando would then wrap up each show with his signature musical montage during which he'd wander into the studio audience and connect (figuratively and literally) with those in attendance, having fun and providing what he called a temporary respite from the grief of the day, politics and inflation.
		This three-disc boxed set, Tony Orlando and Dawn—The Ultimate Collection features eleven episodes (complete with whimsical animated title sequence), and while that may not be undeniably "ultimate" in light of their 55-episode canon, it makes for a fun collection nonetheless.

		Orlando quickly agreed to cut another record with Dawn, nonetheless adamantly insisting on keeping his day job; titled "Knock Three Times," the single topped the charts in early 1971, and finally he returned to music full-time, signing with Bell and going on tour with Hopkins and Vincent under the banner of Dawn, Featuring Tony Orlando.
		Orlando's retirement proved short-lived, and just four months later he made a solo comeback in Las Vegas; Dawn attempted to forge on without him, but enjoyed little success on their own and eventually disbanded.

He worked with songwriters like Carole King and Gerry Goffin, and was part of the creative ferment symbolized by the Brill Building in New York and fronted by flamboyant showmen like Murray the K and Don Kirschner.
		In a rare transition, Tony became a successful music executive before he was lured back onstage in the early '70s.

		Tony Orlando and Dawn were a makeshift pop group with a couple of hits—including 1973's biggest single, "Tie A Yellow Ribbon"—when CBS signed them up for a four-episode summer variety run in 1974.

		The three-disc DVD set Tony Orlando and Dawn: The Ultimate Collection has been designed to appeal equally to fans of the group and to those who just like snickering at ghastly '70s ephemera.

		When I was in middle school, I fell in love with a singing trio that protected me for the rest of my school years.
