The Ed Sullivan Show was a television variety program that aired on CBS from 1948-1971. For 23 years it aired every Sunday night and played host to the world's greatest talents. The Ed Sullivan Show is well known for bringing rock n' roll music to the forefront of American culture through acts like Elvis Presley, The Beatles, and The Rolling Stones. The entertainers each week ranged from comedians like Joan Rivers and Rodney Dangerfield, to Broadway stars Julie Andrews and Richard Burton, to pop singers such as Bobby Darin and Petula Clark. It also frequently featured stars of Motown such as The Supremes, The Temptations, Stevie Wonder and The Jackson 5. The Ed Sullivan Show was one of the only places on American television where such a wide variety of popular culture was showcased and its legacy lives on to this day.

I've yet to see one complete show. Was it like Johnny Carson. It was essential as a band in or singer to be on it for America's approval & even the Beatles & to be fair he must have hated some bands like the Who but he allowed them on.

It’s one of the things I like most about him. He seems respectful to everyone, no matter their station in life. He’s a good older brother, good husband, and father. He speaks well of fans. Many singers and celebrities treat fans as beneath them, and a necessary evil. Barry genuinely loves to share their music with the fans and loves to see them enjoying their songs. He generously gave his bros credit on songs even if they only contribute a word or two. He just seems to be a genuinely good guy. My husband, when I told him how generous he is with songwriting credits, said, no wonder the Bee Gees lasted so long, instead of people wanting to leave. I’ve seen singers with huge egos, and if Barry has one he disguises it well. If he’s a prima donna he disguises it well.

This was an eye-opener for me. I knew the Bee Gees only as a disco band until my freshman year in college when one of my dorm-mates happened to be watching a "Best of Ed Sullivan" retro show, and this sequence appeared. With their elegant appearance, the row of violins, the French horn, and a very young and fresh-faced Barry Gibb, I couldn't believe this was the same band that had brought us the "Saturday Night Fever" soundtrack. The Bee Gees really knew how to reinvent themselves according to the times and go full force with any musical style. Thanks for posting. Rest in peace, Maurice, Robin and Andy.

@squishmastah4682 3 года назад

@katie-didellis2437 3 года назад

What really messes with my mind, is that there are people so focused on what is called The Bee Gees disco music or disco period, that they miss this gem and other songs that were/are outstanding both before and after the Disco period. I know it's their loss, but the brothers deserve more respect than that.
