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.

This is SOLID GOLD!! As soon as my 84-year-old father heard the trumpet from upstairs, he asked, “Is that Satchmo??!!” Respect!!

@@BarracusObamus , you'd be shocked by how few people would. There is a guy in my church who is a 24 year old doctoral student in chemistry at Notre Dame. He's not just a science nerd, either. He had never heard of Lucille Ball when I mentioned her in conversation with him a few weeks ago.

I'm an old white guy now and I tried desperately to play piano for ten years when I was young. Later I learned I was terrible at math beyond basic algebra and basic geometry. It made me feel better (and more in awe) of musicians as its all mathematics. God bless these fellows for sharing their talents with the rest of us.

@@bobtaylor170 I agree with you. The dumbing down of the culture is pretty much complete. But what's worse is that the lessons of WW2 have also been relegated to ancient history, thus setting the stage for a repeat of it.

The Duke's erudite, sophisticated, cerebral, and wholly urbane style married with the exuberant, joyous, lyrical, jaunty gumbo tones of Louis Armstrong = an unlikely match made in heaven!

When I was just a child in the late 50s early 1960s my mom had a huge record collection that consisted of Duke ellington, Louis armstrong, Billie Holiday and Sarah Vaughan and the list went on and on and on. She gave me a better musical education than I ever got in college and is the reason why I became a musician 55 years ago! Rest in peace mom and thanks for the memories! ❤

@IMCcanTWEESTED Год назад

I hear that. My dad took my brother an I to a Harlem Globe Trotters basketball game at Southwestern College in Point Loma in 1962. I was 8. Cab Calloway came out to mid court for halftime and accompanied himself on this beat up electric piano to "Minnie the Moocher." I knew that song from my mom's record collection and it was clear that most the crowd was familiar with the song as well. While all the other kids flooded the court after the game to get their favorite Globe Trotter's autographs. I spotted Cab over at the Globe Trotter's bench and went over to tell him how much I enjoyed his song. He flashed that world famous smile of his at me and enthusiastically shook my hand and asked me if I had heard his music before. I shook my head in the affirmative-too star-struck to say anything. I finally mustered the strength to say, "My mom has your record and I listen to it all the time." He put a hand on my shoulder and told me, "thank your mom for sharing my music with you." That was 60 years ago and I feel so blessed and privileged to have had that moment with a Cotton Club legend. Thank you, mom. I sure miss you.

Don't know if it was Sullivan or CBS that kept these beautiful videotapes...but I am grateful nonetheless.

@fromthesidelines 3 месяца назад

CBS certainly didn't. They'd save a few tapes here and there- but their ultimate goal was to either "wipe" them for future use......or toss them out. It was Ed (and his son-in-law Bob Precht) who saved the bulk of his tapes and kinescopes, and kept them "in storage".

@WPM_in_ATL 3 месяца назад

@@fromthesidelines Similar to what I understood Johnny Carson did (keep the tapes).

You are names for all time. And to you, Duke, I personally say. If I were Frank Sinatra's contemporary, I would like to sing a duet with him, accompanied by your jazz band, at least a jazz version of the song "Sunny", written by Bobby Habb.

@@waldolydecker8118 True. They lived their lives, though, and had some good times. But they never got the credit & recognition that they deserved.
