Who played Cornelius? He had a good voice.

In my early career as a journalist, I was invited to a luncheon along with other Los Angeles journalists with Ms. Bailey who was opening at the Shubert in Hello Dolly. I stayed behind as one journalist after another left. She came over and asked me to sit with her. We talked for hours. I told her how my grandparents and parents traveled to Las Vegas to see her perform. She said, "Yes, I am getting all the grandkids now." I loved being with Ms. Bailey and didn't want the evening to end. The next day she sent me every book she wrote. All were signed with a little note. I was touched and became her biggest fan, seeing her at as many performances as I could over the years. I will never forget her.

Raucous and dated.

UTUBE JUST IN TIME BY JOHN BAVAS

Jack Benny managed to be on stage just long enough to be urbanely witty and had the good grace to shut up, get off and let the stars shine, knowing how good they were .

What year was that registered? I'd like to see It?

When Broadway musicals sounded like you were in the same room with them.

Wonderful

I wonder if Morgan Freeman was one of the dancers that you see here in "Put On Your Sunday Clothes." He was in the chorus of the African-American "Hello, Dolly" with Pearl Bailey.

Makes me cry with joy every time 😭😭😭

This song is actually called "Nous On S'Aimera".

Pearl Bailey. Was magnificent. As. Dolly Gallagher Levi. I saw her many years ago in Boston.. At the Schubert Theatre

855-9 entire audience - appears 100% white!?! 1968 NYC. says a lot

Eat your heart out Bette Midler. Miss m could’ve been this good, but not miss Midler.

Not one African American in the audience.

True stars that worked their way from Vaudeville through radio, stage, and large and small screen. These greats will long be remembered after today's flash-in-the-pan's are long forgotten.

Why can’t this happen in 2019 ? We sure need to bring this country back from it’s division .

I've always thought God looks like Pearl Bailey. At least, I hope so.

Oh, what a treat to see the two Carols singing together… about food! I think Carol Channing was a vegetarian which explains her lifelong slimness, boundless energy and longevity till 97 years of age! May she sing & dance in peace forevermore. On 1/15/19, heaven welcomed her with “Hello, Carol, well hello, Carol. It’s so nice to have you back where you belong…”. And another treat to see Ms. Channing singing with Ms. Pearl Bailey - the 2 Broadway Dolly’s! Also, congrats to Carol Burnett for receiving 1st Carol Burnett Award for lifetime achievement at 2019 Golden Globes.

PEARL BAILEY WAS MAGNIFICENT

I remember seeing Miss Pearl as "Dolly" at the Shriner's Auditorium (same one that is shown as the Oscar Awards venue in 1955's "Star Is Born"). The show was billed as the "All-Black Cast" - not unusual in those days of the late 60s. Pearl gave her own spin on "Dolly" - which truly is a role that allows actresses to put their own spin on the character. In the opening number, "I Put My Hand In Here", there's a moment when the costume horse makes an appearance (standard in all productions of "Dolly"). "Dolly" is handing out cards promoting her various skills which include matchmaking. When Pearl came up against the costume horse, she blurted out "Oh no - sorry! Not this child, honey!" and then she swerved away. The audience LOVED IT! Missing Pearl and Carol!

Hopefully Queen LaTifa will replace Bette Midler

The Otto Preminger film, to which Channing alludes in her acceptance speech, is the 1968 feature, "Skidoo", also starring Jackie Gleason. If you wish to spend an hour and a half watching one of the oddest cinematic productions of all time, by all means watch, "Skidoo".

I never realized since now at 7:54 she does a Cab Calloway impersonation!

Spectacular. Thank you for posting.

Class acts: Jack Benny, Carol Channing, and Pearl Bailey. We need more people like them in the Arts and in the world.

Sad that the end is missing... There is another video online (sadly not on youtube) of her singing this song in french once again (I think it was the Minnelli/Aznavour concert...)
