Thanks for visiting The Page Of Wonder Channel! I hope you enjoy the watch!♥
I'm glad he always gave black singers a chance on stage and fought against society for the injustices.. it's a good example for others on how we should treat others no matter what color our skin is ❤
Great video. Thanks!😊.
I HATE when youtubers use an AI to narrate their stories. You can tell in this one when it said DiaHann Carrol. Just sad that you can't use a real person.
Right. And the repetitive script.
Sid O'Dower ,the host of Jubilee Show case was another host of a Gospel channel back in the day, that show cased black Gospel artists .
We never missed an episode of Ed Sullivan! We loved watching him! I’ll never forget watching The Beatles for the first time on his program.
We always gathered around the TV 📺 for the Ed Sullivan show
Same here, still remember seeing the Beatles, and being upset with all the silly screaming girls making it hard to hear them. Still makes me smile. I remember seeing a lot of bands on that show, Hermans Hermits, The Doors, The Rolling Stones, and several other big name acts. I saw Jimi Hendrix on the Mike Douglas show as well.
I just thought of something… living in New York City in the 60’s, I didn’t know about racism. My mother grew up in the projects of Brooklyn. My dad not too far away. Blacks, whites, and all nationalities lived side by side. They socialized with all kinds of people. I realize after watching this video… having watched the wide breath of shows on Ed Sullivan, I didn’t know black people weren’t accepted. We saw different black and white groups, singers and other skills each week. I didn’t know until now he really played a role accepting all races, religions, etc. He just integrated all people of all talents. What a guy. Those were real heroes.
We need more People like Mr. Sullivan today! He was a man before His time, I think that is the saying!
I can't imagine that Ed Sullivan was any fan of rock-and-roll, yet he knew how to find some of the best talent in that genre and he accepted the idea of putting them on his show. Being 76 years old now, I'm like most people my age, who can say that his variety show was a Sunday night staple while growing up. Radio was the driving force for the popularity of rock and roll, but Ed Sullivan was also an integral part of that culture and that success.
He only booked the greatest acts of the rock and roll era of the 1950s and '60s (save a few exceptions) and I think he had affection for a lot of the music - especially R&B and Soul. His stiffness was a physical disorder (see above) and if anything he had to do the bidding of the corporate order behind CBS so when he was pissed at performers for blowing past some guidelines,, it was that they knew how to potentially knock -out what was quietly (or loudly) one of the most revolutionary shows ever on TV.
Mr. Sullivan always acted awkward, but I grew up watching his shows in the 60's and was sad to see him canceled, and he ALWAYS had hot acts on. impeccable sense of talent and what would thrill the home viewers. So much music presented that a lot of us boomers, etc would never have been exposed to.
Ed Sullivan had ankylosing spondylitis, it builds up calcium deposits on your joints and spine. I have it and now understand his awkward movements. Take my word for it he was in a lot of pain.
@@JohnP538 Exactly: the smear that he was some kind of "stiff" (but accidentally booking the greatest acts of the century?) is really sad and an insult to his legacy because literally he had the disease of which you speak. Inside, Ed had a lot of heart -- you can see how he reaches out to Elvis to reassure the public that he is a "fine decent boy" and "we never had a pleasanter experience with a guest" --something left out of this A-I hodgepodge. Ed also took pains to shake hands and be close to the African-American guests... And yes, he went out to NYC jazz hotspots and knew the talent out there!
@@JohnP538 As a young physiotherapy student in the mid-70s, I wondered then and have ever since if he had ankylosing spondylitis. Good for him carrying on in his profession. I hope you find some help for your pain.
@@truerosie You can live with it but it takes a toll. The "bamboo spine" really limits mobility. Bone spurs are the worst of it. Lots of popping and crunching. Just try to stay active and know your limitations.
Ed Sullivan has my utmost respect. The man saw people of color as people. Thank you Mr. Sullivan.
thats the problem
APPARENTLY ED HAD the personality akin to a bottom of a birdcage.
@@mr.blackhawk142 This is a real insult to the man who was a popular sports athlete in high school and then a writer and man about town. He actually had a condition that as it advanced made him so stiff and uncomfortable. I have new affection for his legacy- from watching re-runs and his comfort with black guests---and this non-sense about his personality is a smear.
We never missed the Ed Sullivan show. He gave many entertainers a chance.
Great video about Ed Sullivan..... my parents watched it all the time and so have I at times he is total history...again a great video....
Ed Sullivan and his talent scouts had a real knack for finding new and unique talents and have them appear on his show. Mr. Sullivan pave the way for other variety shows to follow. John Sebastian of the Lovin' Spoonful once said if you were asks to appear on the Ed Sullivan Show you knew you hit the big times.
Reality competition variety show that we have today on television can't compare with the Ed Sullivan Show. there was no competition among the acts just pure entertainment in a variety format.
In 1990, Andrew Solt founded SOFA Entertainment Inc. and acquired The Ed Sullivan Show from the Sullivan family. In 2020, Josh Solt left Google to lead SOFA as CEO of the company. The Ed Sullivan Show is the most respected and revered variety show in television history. Originally called Toast of the Town, it is considered one of the most eclectic and storied archives in American television.
I've ALWAYS LOVED WATCHING his shows, he did so very much for the INCLUSION of ALL TALENTS regardless of race...😊😊😊
He gave a voice and face to many future stars of that time.😊 .
No one would talk about Sullivan had Elvis not appeared on the show.
@@Noel-ji8nm Elvis.... 😂
My name is José Jimenez thank you very much
Jiménez.
The " Ed Sullivan Show " was a MUST WATCH all through the 1960's. It was REAL QUALITY TV VEIWING! There is NOTHING like it on TV today. It was the Very Best VARIATY SHOW on TV. Ed Sullivan brought on the VERY BEST in UP COMMING AND ESTABLISHED TALENTS from a VAST and VARIED POOL of Artists. Television producers would be hard pressed to be able to recreate today anything that would come close to the " Ed Sullivan Show " . Those that lived through the era and times the show was on the TV airwaves were really treated to a Very Special Television viewing experience!!
Elvis made the show famous.
One of my FAV shoos was Herman's Hermits "Kind Of A Hush".
@@Noel-ji8nm I'm as big an Elvis fan as you might come across, but Ed Sullivan was already a number one show --one that was resisting having him on at first. Sullivan had him on repeatedly for the great ratings--but also went had giants on from BIll Haley; Bo Diddly, Buddy Holly; Bobby Darin; Brook Benton, James Brown, Jackie Wilson, the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Janis Joplin, the Young Rascals , the 4 Tops, the Supremes, the Jefferson Airplane. and too many to mention.
That became "Appointment Viewing" all through the '60s - long after Elvis' 1960 Sinatra TV special, his last until the '68 NBC special. . So its wrong to just say Elvis made the show. That's not the case at all. He only appeared 3 times -- three monumental times--but that wouldn't make the Sullivan show last until '71 --and arguably they cancelled it too soon anyway.
@@AndrewVOdom The show would have been cancelled or run of the mill had Elvis never become known. Remember without Elvis their would have been no Beatles or thousands of other musicians.
My family used to watch The Ed Sullivan Show in the 50s and 60s. Mr. Sullivan is an icon of television history.
The family watched him every week. We loved his show.. ''' Really big show''
You forgot to mention his beef with Jim Morrison of the Doors. Jim was supposed to change the part of the lyrics of light my fire and leave out " girl we couldn't get much higher" which Jim agreed to. When he got onstage he sang the lyric as is anyway. Ed was livid n banned the group from the show. Jim Morrison couldn't have cared less.
They did mention the beef. Did you miss it? I think Ed also had a problem with the Rolling Stones. He wanted them to change the lyrics from "Let's spend the night together" to "Let's spend some time together" and they didn't do it either.
Of course Ed's favorite British band was The Dave Clark Five who were on Ed Sullivan's show 18 times.
Morrison really leaned into it too! Didn’t care, obviously. The stones did change the lyrics, but Mick rolls his eyes very theatrically every time he has to say let’s spend some time together, it’s pretty funny.
He did mention The Doors
Jimmy was always a big brat! He wasn't a nice guy.
@@bjbell52 I think someone nodded off part way through this documentary.....Funny how people get on their soap boxes without double checking their accusations!!
I didn't watch Ed Sullivan when it originally aired, I was a little and I don't think My Parents even watched the show. But now that they have it in reruns, I Really like the show, it was Very Versatile for it's time. Thanks for introducing the World 🌍🌎 to ALOT of Musical Talent Mr. Sullivan... Good Night and God Bless You Ed... Rest In Peace 🕊️🕊️🕊️
You forgot to name his alleged “arch-nemesis.” All anybody who watched this video knows is that Elvis and Buddy Holly weren’t favorites of his. I don’t think that qualifies either of them as an “arch-nemesis.”
"Arch-Nemesis" was used for clickbait!
@@tonyt8805 I know. I hate when they do that.
I respect he allowed Jackie Wilson on his show multiple times, as well as other African American performers and treated them as equals.
I remember watching an entertainer spinning plates
Our whole family used to watch Sullivan every Sunday night. Thanks for the great video about Ed.
Ben Stiller should play him in a movie.
There isn't a child of that era that didnt look forward to watching his show Ed Sullivan was an institution in American TV and its history
I have lived vicariously in watching METVs rebroadcasts on SUnday night (in front of my own kids) but you all truly lived in a golden era -the Ed Sullivan years, in effect.
In Australia too.
Wow, Ed was like another Lincoln or Kennedy.....People of colour, over the ages have certainly benefitted from his unbiased attitude to life....I'm 64 and never knew he was an advocate of racial rights.
Lincoln and Kennedy did nothing for blacks test tgry we’re not forced to do
@@crewshaw2122
Want to try that again in English🙄
@@crewshaw2122 Yeah, Lincoln had nothing to do with freeing the slaves and defeating the Confederacy..and JFK just another Woodrow Wilson... You nailed it. 😆
@crewshaw2122 that's right
Well written, well presented.
I wish they had not click-baited me with a susposed "controversey." But I guess that is the new America.
Missed it again! never did find out who the singer was that he couldn't stand, maybe I will try watching one of these without skipping through it. eagle
it's Tiny Tim.
@@sharksport01 It's A-I click-bait. Sad, because about 75% of it is really good but its obviously done by a computer and is laughably bad in spots.
The Beatles appearing on Ed Sullivan was such a big deal, my parents and four other families got together to watch it... In black and white of course!
Every Sunday you could put on Ed Sullivan and know it would be great entertainment!
J Edgar Hoover’s picture was shown with another man’s name as a friend that sat in his home often and giving him advice. Think the name was Kirkpatrick or something like that. He also was responsible for putting together one of the biggest funerals of all time for a black entertainer that had fallen on hard times Bill “Bo Jangles” Robinson. I believe there were a million people that attended.
In 1955 Bo Diddley had a hit song. That is why he was on the show in the first place. But Sullivan, for no apparent reason, decided he wanted Bo to play a Tennessee Ernie Ford hit called Sicteen Tons. That struck me as nuts. It must have struck Bo that way too. Bo played his own hit instead of 16 Tons, and Sullivan lost his cool. I had a hard time havimg any sympathy for Ed Sullivan after that.
I now have a new respect for Ed.
Oh I loved ed Sullivan
In the 60s everyone knew who Ed Sullivan was!!
I DIN know, so speak for yerself... :P
Born in '69..and know my rock history ..but have come to really enjoy seeing all the episodes every Sunday on METV. Some of us were born way too late..Them was the days!
My favourite was Topo Gigio. The cute Italian mouse.
Both Carson and Sullivan had their issues but I thought it was good that Sullivan would let people make fun of him, yet Carson was not so much that way.
Ed was nice looking when he was younger. I enjoyed watching his show growing up in the 70s
Our family watched EVERY episode of the Ed Sullivan show until February, 1964. My dad and grandparents drew the red line on The Beatles. Damn that TV Guide!
Pretty tame stuff in '64 (even arguably vs. Elvis in '56-57) ...If he saw the Doors, and the Jefferson Airplane, let alone James Brown, he'd have lost his mind. Ed Sullivan was a cultural revolutionary in his own quiet mainstream way.
"Red brick home?" (1:08) Coulda fooled me.
Big white one!!
That's not the house; you can see the actual house on Google Maps.
I liked the scene clip with Bogart from "The Big Sleep."" Had not much to do with Ed Sullivan, I don't think..
I use to watch it every Sunday night at 8pm
Then Bonanza after....
Not to change the subject here, but his head and upper torso remind me of a PEZ dispenser.......:)
😂😂😂
Ed was the most important TV personality of his era.
This is a REALLY BIG SHOOOW!!!
Grew up watching the show. Because we only had two and a half stations( black and white ) and it was the least scratchy.
I was 8 when the Beatles were on. I had four older sisters. OMG !
He was in love with Diana Ross, but the feelings weren’t reciprocated. As a result he successfully promoted an previously unknown singer named Frieda Payne with whom he had a romantic relationship
There are AI errors 😂 like football and the Patsy, the Godfather’s Corleone family as Sullivan’s wife’s family. Did Ed Sullivan have the privilege of meeting with Popes or “The Popes”? 😂 Did Ed Sullivan have a feud with Arthur Ashe and Rod Laver? Was Charles Laughton an Alabama advertiser? Not to mention the liturgical dance sequence 27:36
Excellent review...
I Remember seeing the popular british tenor of the mid 1950s David Whitfield of Cara Mia fame appearing on the Ed Sullivan show in the mid 1950s David appeared on the Ed Sullivan show on 8 seperate occasions , i have all of those tv appearences on dvd..
Never really said who was the singer he could not stand. I suppose it was Jim Morrison of The Doors.
Why do they do that? Say they are going to tell us something and then don't
@@andreamcafee9970 Clickbait... it's the TH-cam way.
He didn’t like Bo Diddley.
Not even that. LIke any employer, Sullivan & stafff answered to those who write the checks and brazen rebellion is trouble. I dont think Ed had a problem with the Doors- he saw their appeal but it was the failure to stay on the guidelines that blew up. That doesn't mean he hated Morrison. Its tough to push the envelope as Ed did almost every week with socially revolutionary acts--who increasingly wanted to control the stage and the program. It was bound to blow up....
@@donnasharpe3451 He didn't like that Bo switched the song out that they agreed he would sing. It was a bad idea to begin with but Bo's rebellion meant that he never became a mainstream cross-over act -whereas Chuck Berry and Little RIchard arguably had much more success in any event.
Is it me, or didn’t that first picture remind us all of ‘LURCH’? 🤣🤣🤣
Interesting video.
But I guess I missed the part about the singer he couldn’t stand. Click bait
I guess AGT is the closest thing to what Ed did all those years ago. A toast is in order.
The video is really entertaining. Thanks
Well, I have new respect for him being completely unaware (from the UK side of the pond) that he championed racial equality with such determination.
Sing along to the classic "Camp Granada" song by Allan Sherman in this fun video tribute to summer camp! Join in on the fun and nostalgia with this timeless campfire tune.
There was hollywood pa;lace too.
I remember it as Toast of the Town.
like other folks- i still don't know who the arch nemesis singer was. . Was it Morrison.????Buddy Holly?
Mel Torme
So surprised they didn't go into detail the Beatles appearances in 1960s. They were top viewership for ESS and Should not have been bypassed
Jim Morrison for an example you don't ask a genius like Jim Morrison to change the lyrics on light my fire never ask an artist to do that and it's very unlikely Morrison even cared he was banned 🚫
Not convinced on the 'genius' label for Jim.
@@truerosie he's poetry and lyrics are Tought in major colleges so yes he was a genius just because you don't think he is doesn't mean he wasn't
No one tells an artist what to do. Brilliant Dylan got it right.
Artists (even folkies) exist in a commercial market. Thumb you nose at the mainstream and you will lose that big chance. Thankfully Bob Dylan rose to fame on less political material and arguably spited his nose to save his face. So many other cultural revolutionaries of a kind did get their spotlight on Sullivan.
The “big chance” rarely comes to artists, and when the pipedream is realized it frequently brings personal disaster coz some aren’t strong enough to handle it. Fortunately I have never given a damn about money and ass kissing for fame and the insanity of showbiz. The art is everything, buddy, and changing your thing for jealous wannabe powermongers ignorant of music is…. I’m a happy man coz I saw the writing on the wall. Save your words for the clueless. My mind was made up when a nightclub manager refused to pay my blues band in 1978. We sat in his office and looked ugly till he got out his chequebook, I am truly blessed I dumped showbiz. I was 27 back then and 73 now. I never kissed ass. Some said I was “the best blues guitarist in the world”. So what? It’s better to be happy … I sing arias now and live with my godwoman 3rd wife in the Philippines, collecting a pension from pleasant and challenging work for 30 years as a government male secretary. I’m the lucky one. All the guys about 60 and doing weird little bar gigs with no chance of a pension agree. ✨🙂🐦🐕🐥🐭🕺💥
@@AndrewVOdom Congrats, the channel host loved your comment so much the deleted the comment of someone who knows what he's talking about. Perhaps you can learn something, and both you and the host are forgiven. I'll delete my Op soon ... you ... Sb your ... Thumb you nose sounds like soneone insulting their nose ... Hope you're having a good day! Thank you, it's been fun! 🤣🤣🤣
Why did they use a picture of Luca Bracci.
I'm with Ed.
16:05 look it's Richard Kuklinski on the show !
My father was on the Ed Sullivan show.
For what?
What did your dad do?
He was a prison guard at the Charlestown state prison. (Currently bunker hill college, Boston, Ma) He and another were held hostage. It was a big deal at the time. 1955
"A really big shoe"😊😊😊😊
Can't believe you did not show Dinah Washington together with Sammy Davis Junior
Wow... I didn't realize how scary he looks
In your opening you state that he was born on 9-18-1901. Near the end of the video his GRAVESTONE shows he was born on 9-16-1880! Nice job. You sure know what you are doing! LOL!
I looked it up. The gravestone in question was that of an Ed Sullivan, but not THE Ed Sullivan🤣🤣🤣. What a ridiculous and sloppy mistake by the channel.
Very interesting but why must there be irritating background music?
They did!
Reminds Me Of Bogey.❤
Kill the music bed. It's too loud and distracting from the voiceover.
@ 25:04 that tomb stone cannot be Ed's Dates of Birth and death was that his Dad and Moms>
Ed was not Born in 1880 - it was Sept 28, 1901 Died Oct 13, 1974 >>> ???something is off here - HELP lol
How old was he at the time of his passing ?
So,who was the singer he couldnt stand? Did I miss it?
AI strikes again. The number of complete idiotic images having nothing to do with the script astonished me.
The Doors was one.
19:22--why is Charles Laughton shown for backlash (to integration)?
Wasn't Laughton into eating shit sandwiches?
Why do Americans always think that if you are famous in the U. S. that you are famous world wide?
👍
It’s the national delusion of American Exceptionalism that precludes any notion of a world outside of the US.
Because they are, Blanche.
Who put white siding on his childhood brick home?
He looks like Lurch in the thumbnail.
Almost 20 Times ?
At 25:03 it shows a gravestone that has ED Sept.16,1880 to Apr. 6, 1966 and RUTH Apr. 4, 1893 to Aug. 13, 1973 but at 27:47 it shows a mausoleum crypt stone stone that says SYLVIA 1903 - 1973 and EDWARD V. 1901 - 1974. Why the descrepancy? According to the internet his parents were Peter Sullivan and Elizabeth F. Smith Sullivan..Why is this?
I would think MR SULLIVAN WASN'T A FAN OF THE MUSIC BEING OLDER THAN THE ARTISTS BUT HE SEEN TIMES WERE CHANGING IN MUSIC AND HE DIDN'T MIND GETTING PAID 😂
Video doesn't match sound track. This is better off if it was just audio. Poor production.
Popularity began to wane . . . Was that intentional that as the word wane was spoken the footage shown was . . . Wayne Newton? Or just funny coincidence?
There are some dates you have wrong..........
Could that be Elvis or ?😊
Your headline is not truthful
Ed Sullivan startrd ad a spirts reporter in the 1920s.
It would've been better if your AI Bot could actually pronounce the names you highlight in your video !
So, according to this crap. Elvis or Paul Anka would have been nobodys withouth him ?
Your title is misleading, you named on nemesis. What a waste of time.
Channel going on Blocktube list due to clickbait.
Unfortunately, the nice guys don't get to be household names. Ed was nice enough, but cross him...and find out for yourself who's a nice guy.
What was that annoying ticking sound in the background? I nearly left your page several times. Drove me batty. (A short jaunt)
Yeah yeah yeah 🙄
He didn't like Diana Ross.
He LOVED Diana Ross. The Indeed the Supremes were frequently featured.
My mother’s friend would help the stars at Radio City Music Hall get ready for their show. They had strict rules cast upon them to “Never look at Diana Ross in the eyes”. Ever since I heard that, I couldn’t stand her. Who the heck does she think she is? Another Barbara Streisand who’s also a beatch from what we hear.
He loved Mary Wilson and Florence Ballard "the Supremes" but didn't like the snobby " Call her Miss Ross"
The Boss
Sullivan looks worse than Frankenstein’s monster!! A face made for radio😂
Awful Ai generated photo
Why does Sullivan look monstrous in clickbait? He was of course no match for a pretty girl!
