    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.

      If Cass had lived, she'd be considered one of the greatest stars in the world by now. I'm talking Oprah level influence. Her talent, her wisdom and vast collection of friendships would have led her to movies, television, you name it. Can you imagine her talk shows?

      She only shuffled out of necessity. She had so much fat stored in her legs that her leg muscles were unable to lift her feet off the ground! In short, she was a grotesque revolting woman. Her voice is only to be heard, but her face and body is never -- never -- to be seen. The producers should have just dubbed her voice over Michelle Phillips' body and face. All problems solved!

      Her voice beaconed to the heart like a trumpet 🎺 & the she spoke of was not a physical destination, but a destination within the heart mind soul and spirit of us all & that is love In it’s purest simplest and absolutely most powerful state . It’s a place we must all attain to if we are to cross that gap between particle and wave , between physical form energy comprised of particles molecules atoms and everything else that exists as matter & pure waveform energy that has not particles , molecules or any other form of physical matter but is rather pure energy ( spirit) and the only way to make that transition is through by and in the power of love that transcends all knowledge, all understanding and all wisdom.

      I doubt it. In the day all variety/ tonight shows and even Bandstand was strictly mimed, why I don't know but I suspect it may have had to do with costs for performances -live v mimed. As the shows then were always live they would not chance a stuff-up by the band or artists, it was the only way to make sure a live show was aired perfectly.
      In their E S Show performance of "Creeque Alley" Cass actually shocks the group by saying "cue the tape" at the beginning of their performance, this was taboo as it was meant to be a sacred secret that all live shows like this were mimed.

      Most underrated female voice all time, I don't think so really. Maybe with the passage of time, a number of people today don't know about her, I don't think that was the case back then. And there have been a lot of great female vocalists. Aretha Franklin. Diana Ross. Sandy Denny. Annie Haslam. Ann Wilson. Patsy Cline. Karen Carpenter. And a number of others I'm not remembering right now.
