This episode was largely devoted to the talents of Sammy Davis Jr. and Ella Fitzgerald. After performing several solos, the legends got to sing this legendary duet. A famous moment on the Ed Sullivan show! Thank you for this video!
Great performance Ella and Sammy together…thanks for sharing…at least the audience let you hear them perform unlike the following week…😂! Have a great day!
Excellent visual quality and clarity on the image. Thank you for the upload and it's appreciated having these wonderful pieces watchable in a higher resolution. And many thanks for the wonderful showcase of the greatest talents to grace the stage from the 20th century.
I've watched this performance on TH-cam so many times. It's one of my all-time favorite videos. 💜💜💜 And now that you've posted it, I'll watch it several more times! 😊
I remember this, she was one of the best. She struggled with her weight for some reason. Sammy was such a cool guy he could do anything! Class acts I miss them 🥁
It brought joyful tears to my eyes to watch how much Ella Fitzgerald was enjoying herself. There was so much heart and delight in this performance. For me, it’s a blessing to behold -- one of those performances along with Sammy Davis, Jr's performance of Mr Bojangles -- that is seared in my soul.
The First Lady of Jazz and Mr. Cool Cat. Over the years we have enjoyed may great singers and songstress, Eli immho, is one of the few who could do it all: sing, sang, story telling, phrasing, scat, and blow! She is one maybe 2 or 3 that I would say could be the "GOAT". She is the first "Diva"!
Ella Fitzgerald, probably the best singer of all time along with the great Sammy Davis, were both brilliant musicians, they could make any song swing, they could make a duck swing and quake at the same time by just listen to those 2 great people sing
MAGNIFICS!!!QUE PRECIOSIDADE!!!ADOREI!!!SOU FAN DESTAS DUAS LENDAS FANTÁSTICAS!!!KISSESS FROM BRAZIL!!!QUE DEUS E OS ANGELS ILUMINEM SEMPRE!!!FAN FOREVER!!!🎉🎉🎉😊😊😊💥💥💥💥💯💯💯💯🧚♂️🧚♂️🧚♂️🧚♂️😇😇😇
A delight!! You have to be very brave to dare to challenge the great queen of scat... but I think that our daring little great Sammy comes out alive from the attempt... This performance spreads good vibes!
✨🌟🥇👑🏆👑🥇🌟✨It’s Wonderful it’s Marvelous that Ella Fitzgerald and Sammy Davis Jr are sing 🎵 🎤🎶🎹together like two cool cats on a hot tin roof 🤩Yeh that’s Jazz Man ✨🌟💖👍
I'm so glad Marilyn Monroe helped Ella Fitzgerald get her start in the big-time clubs. Imagine being able to go to those clubs in those days. I hope Ella got to really show her appreciation to Marilyn before she passed away.
What….wait…..! He called her Ms. First Lady. ‘’Mr. Sammy Davis” 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾😎 Not treating another Professional Singer in Public Causal that’s Pure, Professionalism even at their age’s WOW!👏🏾❤️💪🏾😎💯! Even better both dressed Neck to Ankle That’s Easy to noticed they strictly have *Voice’s ,& Talent’s, on * Displaying Decency Should have never Been Compromised!!!
Undeniable talent and passion for what he loved would be part of the reason. Pound for pound that man was one of the most talented performers to ever plant his feet on a stage.
Sullivan was the most "unracist" person on TV at the time. He always had Black (African American) acts on his show despite the fact that he was told there would be problems with broadcasters in the South..

Man I need that full episode
Legendary!! That is what both Sammy Davis, Jr and Ella Fitzgerald was and always will be!!
Echoed sentiment
Ed singing! 😄 That was cute! I've loved Sammy since I was little, and Ella's is a gift from the heavens! Great duet! 😊💜
Indeed! I didn't expect Ed to sing as well.
@@lonestarfriendThey clearly inspired him with that wonderful performance
Wow! Talk about 2 of the greats! Sammy & Ella. 😳
Two of the best at what they did. 🙂
Ella Fitzgerald is still one of my all-time faves! Her voice is so rich, full, and glorious!
高校生の頃にテレビでみたこの映像に一瞬にして心を奪われました。
今みても褪せることなく私に感動を与えてくれます。エドサリバン
エラ、サミーデイビスJr.にとびきりの感謝を！
Great performance Ella and Sammy together…thanks for sharing…at least the audience let you hear them perform unlike the following week…😂!

I'm not a big fan of scattin, but this entire clip was just magical... including Ed singing!
I love scattin! This song is one of the best! I wish more folks would bring it back.
I've watched this performance on TH-cam so many times. It's one of my all-time favorite videos. 💜💜💜 And now that you've posted it, I'll watch it several more times! 😊
Absolute perfection ❤!
This performance was so wonderful .
One of the best performances on the Ed Sullivan show

Two of the greatest performers/voices ever! What a gift!🥰

The love and admiration in his face when watching her sing was priceless!

Grandioso esto demuestra qué el talento y el arte no tienen idioma, nacionalidad, ni raza. Grandes cantantes.
Ella Fitzgerald, probably the best singer of all time along with the great Sammy Davis, were both brilliant musicians, they could make any song swing, they could make a duck swing and quake at the same time by just listen to those 2 great people sing
A week later this show would change America forever.
What a fabulous treat this is!
2 GREAT ENTERTAINERS THEY DONT MAKE EM LIKE THIS ANYMORE❤

agreed. Sammy gave 'crooners' a bad name! (and didn't return until the 90s).
OUTSTANDING
Fantastic!
What about that ! s'wonderful..... Ed on time and pitch ! Wow.
Wonderful artists. What a show. This was fantastic. The next show, Ed introduced America to The Beatles.
"Maravillosos recuerdos que siempre estarán presentes....Gracias y Saludos
Oh, I've been waiting on this!
Fantastisk and wonderful 😊❤
Don’t leave out the Great George Gershwin! Makes me proud to be an American!!! (PS the glamorous/ amorphous rhyme knocks me out!! Ira?)
✨🌟🥇👑🏆👑🥇🌟✨It’s Wonderful it’s Marvelous that Ella Fitzgerald and Sammy Davis Jr are sing 🎵 🎤🎶🎹together like two cool cats on a hot tin roof 🤩Yeh that’s Jazz Man ✨🌟💖👍
What a marvellous toe tapping body swinging rendition. Love them lots.❤❤❤
Real talent unlike some of the jokes of the current day.
I'm so glad Marilyn Monroe helped Ella Fitzgerald get her start in the big-time clubs. Imagine being able to go to those clubs in those days. I hope Ella got to really show her appreciation to Marilyn before she passed away.
That was a great duet! Does anyone know whether that's Tommy Flanagan on the piano. He's my favorite jazz pianist!
Before my time but fantastic
The Sunday before The Beatles appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show.
When Ella got low she got high!
I believe that was Count Basie on the piano
I'm afraid not, he was Tommy Flanagan...
What….wait…..! He called her Ms. First Lady.
‘’Mr. Sammy Davis”
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾😎
Not treating another Professional Singer in Public Causal that’s Pure, Professionalism even at their age’s WOW!👏🏾❤️💪🏾😎💯!
Even better both dressed Neck to Ankle
That’s Easy to noticed they strictly have *Voice’s ,& Talent’s, on * Displaying Decency
Should have never Been Compromised!!!
The following week, the Beatles appeared.
Amazing how a short scrawny funny-looking guy like Sammy Davis made it big time. Good for him! He's a ball of energy.
Undeniable talent and passion for what he loved would be part of the reason. Pound for pound that man was one of the most talented performers to ever plant his feet on a stage.
I`m speechsless.
Just a week later, a minor British group, named after insects, would appear on this very same show, on that very same stage!
Sullivan was the most "unracist" person on TV at the time.
He always had Black (African American) acts on his show despite the fact that he was told there would be problems with broadcasters in the South..
He and Dick Clark...Wonderful Broadcasters !!
You had to really know your stuff to do that
