I'll be turning 70 in a couple of months and lived through the 60s. There will never be another decade so wild and scary and socially conscious. I saw the Stones in a couple of early concerts and they're still rockin' it to this day. Awesome!

Ah, Sunday nights when the Stones would be on Ed Sullivan... I was 12 for this and feigned illness so that I didn't have to go to Sunday night church services. My dad would pull the tubes from the television, but he didn't know that I'd watch it over at an accommodating neighbor's house! The British Invasion was a sensation!
there's two original members in the 'band.' Hardly going strong. They should've called it a night after Some Girls. Now, they're just the proverbial old rocker bar blues band playing outsized venues. I'm glad the Beatles went out at the top of their game, and not limped along into their dotage.
I was 14 when this show was on. Now, 58 yrs. later, I'm still listening to the Rolling Stones. Past and present. I suppose one could say that I grew up with their music.
My older brother and I (ages 10, 8) thought the Beatles songs were bubblegum music for the girls, while the Stones songs were "cool". The Beatles soon proved us wrong, but during the time both bands existed, we loved both, but the Stones were our band.
@@flynnlizzy5469 ok, I watched it again and there were a few smiles, but they looked like they were laughing at monkeys in the zoo. Not appreciative smiles like the kids going out of their minds. I was a kid in that era and adults hated all of this. Beatles. Stones. The Byrds. All the British Invasion stuff. They just lost their minds with hate and smug superiority. They never would have imagined that this would all continue to arouse interest and fascination still to this day.
The Rolling Stones are one of the last bands that have stayed together since their first big break in the music scene. I’m so glad I was in this era listening to them and others, and music that was great fun to dance to, and the bands using real instruments instead of technologies sounding like the instruments. You can’t beat the real deal in the quality and tone of an instrument, and with those who played music for the fun of it, taking it wherever they went and playing music in public just because they loved doing so. I grew up with music, my parents played instruments and we visited people where people would be socializing and dancing, including kids with their parents and friends, and NOT TEXTING EVERYONE. Life may not have been easy on some of us, but music made a difference in our lives and helped in coping with hardships, especially those whose parents were poor and had little money but helped others whenever they could just the same, as mine did back then. I loved it….👍👍👍👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🖖🖖🖖🖖🖖🖖🖖
He actually didn't know much of the Stones before they came on, Ed Sullivan released a public apology after airing the rolling stones because he thought the Rolling Stones had put a disgraceful performance. This increased the popularity of them, noting them as the "bad boys" of rock and roll at the time, opposite to the Beatles
@@kevincourtney7312 No... These acts, the Beatles, The Stones, Elvis... Were growing in popularity to the point they really could not be ignored. Ed Sullivan had ratings to think about, he knew these acts were both quality, and popular... So he booked them. But these acts were already on the way up, he just helped showcase them once they were ready for prime time.

R.I.P.🕊 - Rest In Paradise🕊 - Descansa En Paz🕊 CHARLIE WATTS!!! ... Thank You For Your Talent On The Drums, For The Music You Gave To Us With The ROLLING STONES!!! Your Musical Legacy Is The Mark You Leave To Mankind!!! My Deep Condolences To CHARLIE WATTS's Family, Friends, Loved Ones, The Band!!! Thanks So Much!!! PEACE🕊
"Time" is such a gem of a song. Jagger could really dance. He had a very advanced set of moves at that time. You can see that in the first number that they perform on Ed's show. That unique style of moving is a large part of what made him the icon that he is today. It's natural gift.
In the US that was their first hit. They didn't become superstars until "Satisfaction" in 1965. Once they started writing their own songs they were unstoppable
Brian was not a genius. He was one of the founders, but couldn't stay off the booze and drugs. So the Stones fired him. Too bad, He couldn't handle it.
The Rolling Stones at Symphony Hall in Newark NJ on Nov. 7, 1965 was the first concert I ever attended. I was 13 and because it was on a Sunday afternoon, my folks allowed me to go with a bunch of friends. We waited in our seats for over an hour because they were late getting to the theater, but it was worth it.
Hey Jazz; I went to see them in 1965 at age 15 in Long Beach, CA! Dang what fun! Same situation here, my dad drove a gang of us. Was the best fun!! We were the lucky ones. Note: A girl found her way backstage and literally climbed up over the curtain backdrop and climbed down holding on. The Stones noticed we were (all) looking up with our mouths open and they all turned around and stopped playing. Everyone was frozen thinking she would fall. The police grabbed her after she got to the bottom and the took her offstage after she ran over to hug Mick. LoL! Now that was memorable. 😄
This was so funny to see them so young and sounding good. English lads so inspired by American blues. Like Muddy said, the blues had a baby, and they named the baby, rock n roll. Now after decades of success they still sell out their shows when they are out on the road. It's a phenonium
Each time I watch this, I discover something new. The second by second interaction with the audience is fascinating.There's an extraordinary chemistry there with women of different ages, not just the young ones.
Ed also told the Stones to change the words of "Let's spend the night together" to "Let's spend some time together." They sang their original words. Of course. What else would they do?!
It is pretty amazing that Mick and Keith are now 80 years old and they are headed back out on the road for another Rolling Stones Tour after releasing the new album. It also looks like they may be adding a few more shows because of the high level of ticket requests.
Best I ever heard him sing it tone wise!! nice footwork going on .,. This is how you do it first time out back in the day..and that's why we are so lucky to have them still today 😊😊
So much to take in here. Ed Sullivan's courteous introductions and apparent wonder at the girls' screams. Keith Richards' guitar playing was spot on -- this was probably the first look a lot of budding American rock guitarists (and rock guitarists to be) had at a classic Gibson Les Paul in action - and it's not just any Les Paul, it's the one Keith used in some of the Stones' early recordings (I think he used it on Satisfaction), and I think Mick Taylor played it later on some Stones' recordings, as well. And here Keith is playing lead on it, live (through the Fender amp you can see off to the side). And the band's all live, and they sound great. Thank you for posting this gem of a vid.
Ed Sullivan was on top of the music scene. The Beatles in Feb of 1964, the Stones in Oct, and many others. He was so much like our parents but he knew the music was changing and he was a part of the happening with putting these groups on his show.
Thank you for posting this. My grandad loved the rolling stones, I had no idea but loved several of their songs I'd heard growing up (30 now). He passed away not so long back, a man of few words, I feel like there's still a love of something we shared I can look back on. Posting these videos keeps them alive and not lost to time, as so many things are.
Here is a reason the Stones are considered, by many, to be the greatest rock band in the World. I always missed Brian once he was gone: The Original Rolling Stone.
My parents told me I watched it with them but I was 2 so I don’t remember. Great performance. I still love the Stones! Mick is a living legend. Thanks for posting!
Sorry you were too young to live it live thru the 60's and 70's. Those were the greatest times in history to be growing up. Our generation created it all, then it became rehashed over and over
A song originally written & performed by chuck Berry in’57 - played by the stones 7 years later on Ed Sullivan and still totally cool but in a completely different way- hail, hail rock n roll!
And 2 years before that, in 1955, Chuck's cousin, Marvin, heard Marty McFly's performance of "Johnny B. Goode", and he called Chuck to tell him about it.
Just saw them in concert and if I had to describe it in one word i think it would absolutely be, Inspiring. Mick Jagger had the energy of a 15 year old boy with ADD. They played for close to three hours and he was all over the stage and up and down the cat walk non stop. He would skip, run, hop around as he effortlessly sang their most well known hits. With only three of them left, they still delivered every bit of what you would expect from one of their concerts. Definitely one of my favorite bands and I am so glad I finally got to hear them play live… and I could be wrong but I’m pretty sure it just looked like Mick Jagger just moon walked at the end of the first song on The Ed Sullivan Show 🧐
Lip sync is decidedly inconvenient when the singer dies on stage. There are clips out there of this that I have seen. And by dies on stage I mean literally ceases to live!
I like the almost standup angle Bill Wyman uses. Brian Wilson does the same thing. Having played both guitar/bass and an upright bowed stringed instrument you’ve probably never heard of, I can tell you that the upright position is way easier on the wrist and a lot more natural.
The Early Stones were the best with Brian Jones. They sound great. Their rhythm & blues style was a good contrast to the Beatles. Mick Jagger sounds great. The musicianship is excellent. Bill Wyman, the bass player, is singing those real high notes on the words "TIme, Time ,Time " which surprised the hell out of me. lol
@@gordeauxd Sometimes nostalgia counts for something. Especially if you have memories. For all those out there that used to listen to KBLA, The (Dave) Diamond Mine Stonedex in LA.
@@gordeauxd Mick Taylor is a real good guitarist, but so what?? He was not a Rolling Stone. Brian Jones was multi -talented & FOUNDED the Rolling Stones. But hey, to each his own. However, if you read all the comments, you are in a SMALL minority. LOL
The 60s and 70s were two decades of leaps and bounds in the music industry. There was new stuff coming out daily. To have been alive during this time was truly unique, and almost impossible to explain.
The first song isn't tight at all. The beat is all over the place. The drums and guitars constantly miss landing on the "1" together after almost every break. "Time Is On My Side" (2nd song) is much tighter..
