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 was now 21 and had a crush on Karen and let’s say I lost the entire weekend and returned on Monday.

Unlike a lot of singers, she didn't even discover her ability until she was in her mid teens and she started recording professionally under her brother's production not long after. But she was a natural singer. No amount of training is going to just give a person that kind of talent, no matter how great the teacher is.

The public was now aware of them and loved these hits. Karen here looks very happy singing and playing drums. She has an energy here that i find missing later on. Anyway, they had hit the big time and were starting their career of creating hit records and touring.
