    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.

      Thing I always find funny about the old days is just the amount (and quality) of sound some drummers could get out of just the most basic drum kits. Like if you watch Greg Errico from Sly & The Family Stone - - - half the time he's on a friggin' Sears Silvertone set!! But then after they've made it big, they'll upgrade to something choice like a Ludwig, or Gretsch kit and forever chase the sound they once had with the el cheapo kit.
      Life's funny like that, y'know?

    Mark Volman was quite the showman judging from this old footage. I remember as a small boy growing up in England in the 1960s the Turtles were always being played on the radio. As they were American, we knew little about them. Such an underrated band. It's good that, thanks to the internet, we can revisit the music from that time.

He went on about his business like a pro in front of the whole country. My favorite T song along with Elinor.

    Another classic by this underrated band, and don't forget, it was NOT lip-synched but performed live.

    back in the late 60's a friend and I hoping to see the turtles went to the coliseum in Phx, where they had a concert the night before, hoping to get a glimpse of the Turtles. We arrived as they were heading out ... followed (chased) them to Sky Harbor airport, and hung out with them while they were awaiting their flight. Really down to earth (a little crazy) ... kind of picture the 'Monkees' on television. (I got to hang out with three of the Monkees .... a bit longer story ...)

    She'd Rather Be with Me" is a song written by Garry Bonner and Alan Gordon and released by the Turtles in 1967. The song was the follow-up to "Happy Together".

      Thank you for giving the credit to the Song Writers. Just this morning I commented on a Video about John Denver where in the Comments People were Praising him for the Song, "Take Me Home Country Roads" when he didn't write it. Bill Danoff and Taffy Nifert of The Starland Vocal Band who had a Hit with their Song "Afternoon Delight" wrote it for Johnny Cash but when John Denver heard it, He wanted to record it and then he helped finish the song so, he only wrote part of it.

    Incredible string of hits from 1965 to 1969 gave us great memories for those who lived during that time. This song peaked at #3 in June, 1967. This sounds better than the studio recording.
    It really bothers me that for years the only song of theirs many radio stations play is "Happy Together", forgetting that their were eight other top 40 hits.
    These guys should have been millionaires by this time but their label White Whale cheated them out of as much as they could. When the group left the label folded not long after.

    Loved them from kiddo on up! If I’m ever having a bad day, this song is a great pick-me-up! Turtles and the Monkees should be in the R&R Hall of Fame. This performance was so smooth and engaging. The 60s hippies colors in the background are awesome too!

      You've got a second vote in that nomination. Anyone who was young during that period,(1967), could not avoid the ubiquity of those two acts. The Monkees, The Turtles and yes, Paul Revere & The Raiders were all over the place that year, and what a good one it was.

    I probably saw this watching Ed Sullivan with my Grandmother when I was 3 years old...It's still a great song to this day and the only Turtles song that has stood the test of time....The great vocal style here is very similar to other singers from that era John Sebastian And Don Ciccone (Mr Dyingly Sad)...This is the sound the Turtles should have stayed with. If you listen to their greatest hits their song styles were all over the place and mostly not sounding good. This was their one great fun song...

    My father was a collector for music-industry types. He was in conversations with execs, who said more than once, that despite great talent and songs, the reason they didn’t hit bigger with the pop-loving teen set, is that they didn’t have the looks. And that fucking sucks, but on the other hand, it’s also the animal deep within us.
