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.

More proof Ed Sullivan should be in the Rock Hall of Fame. He used his show as a platform to showcase the most popular artists of the day who made his show relevant to the end. And as you can see in this post he genuinely liked most of the artists that appeared on the show. BTW the video quality for something 52 years old is incredible.

To me this is what made them legendary. But with that said I did love what they did with Edwards too.

A massive trove of digitally restored clips from “The Ed Sullivan Show” will arrive online during the next three years, reviving more than 10,000 long-buried performances and guest appearances from the iconic variety show. The global streaming project launches today with seven clips on RU-vid and other platforms - a Motown-dominated batch of videos that includes performances by Diana Ross & the Supremes, Marvin Gaye, the Jackson 5 and Temptations and Gladys Knight & the Pips. They’re the tip of a cultural iceberg contained in the “Ed Sullivan Show” archives: The Sunday night program ran from 1948 through 1971 on CBS, piping the rock ‘ n’ roll revolution, Hollywood glitz and Detroit’s Motown sparkle into American living rooms alongside Broadway, opera, vaudeville, comedy and novelty acts.

As bad as we were getting it, Otis, Melvin, Richard, Dennis and Ron got it worse. But they did the show, non-stop, and ended with "Can't get Next to You".

Truly the best - Love listening to this song! Melvin had the most endearing smile - and no one can hold a candle to them at least for me. RIP Melvin, Eddie, Paul, David & Dennis.

I almost wish in some ways we could turn back the hands of time! God I wish our music would go back to this! Good, beautiful singing and dancing with class and style. Rap has infested and corroded almost all the beauty out of mainstream R&B. So much of our music is vulgar, unoriginal and ugly sounding crap.

I was officially discharged from the Army and Vietnam on 26 August 1969. Even though I was back, my mind was still over there. This song was released soon after my return. I thought about the soul brothers still serving over there and how this song must've knocked their socks off every time they heard it.

Man that Dennis was so darn cool. What a voice, and sharp as a tack.

The TEMPING TEMPTATION was the group of all times and generations. They were a Group on top of the World. With singing and dancing their way into our lives and on our TELEVISION Screens.

Incredibly gifted and talented, individually, they were a force to be reckoned with. They each gave their individual gifts to the group. I adored Paul Williams because he sang with his heart and soul and provided the phenomenal dance steps. How I miss the glory days of great vocal groups!

@axtaxt8372 Год назад

Imagine Dennis and Paul together leading a song…such raspy voice and power…Dennis exuded aggressive strength and Paul was the subtle strength…wooooweee!
