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.

The first time I found out that my Dad was in Vietnam.
It was a Memorial Day. I was about 5 or 6.
The names of those who had served and sacrificed everything were moving across the screen. A solid blue background and white letters.
I must’ve asked what it was I was looking at.
I just remember my mom saying :
“This is about Vietnam. Your father was in Vietnam.”
The word Vietnam was so alien to my young mind.
This song was playing.
And I remember listening to it.
I love you Dad. Thank you for your service.
❤😔❤
This is about humanity and the world in general, far far more than just Vietnam. I was a teen when The Byrds released this song, and there was a lot more happening in 1965 than America's increasing military invasion of that poor country.
My father was a young man drafted into an unjust war just like everyone else who went back then. My point wasn’t what this song was about. It’s a memory I’ll carry forever, the first time hearing it. And what “more was happening “ in 1965? Civil unrest? Racism? Division? The same people who forced young men and women to fight an unjust war are the same people behind all of that as well. Same story , just like today. So go protest somewhere it’s needed.
A song not for the 60"s or a generation but a song for the century.
…and beyond!
I agree
A song of a lifetime beautiful ❤
The lyrics are from the bible
well said, thank you
Thanks to Pete Seeger who wrote this song.
I convinced now that we are living in another dimension, in another
time....problem is that I got stucked in....the 60th
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
3 There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under the heavens:
2 a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,
3 a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
4 a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
5 a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,
6 a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,
7 a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak,
8 a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace.
Where are we now what have we come too.
Amen 🙏🏻 thank you 🎶🎵🎶🙏🏻❤️
Amén.
תודה רבה

Those Granny glasses though, they were AMAZING
David was utterly GORGEOUS and at that time was one of THE BEST rhythm
guitarists in Rock. He was also one of the kindest people in Rock music, and
one of the very few who visited Joni Mitchell-both in the hospital and at her
home-after her stroke, giving her comfort and emotional support during a
very difficult time in her life. RIP to a brilliant artist and a true gentleman. 👍👍❤❤
Wonderful memories......now in 2024!!!
That's all live, the vocals and music. You can hear all the flaws throughout -- the mix, time, very harsh at times. The beauty in live music.
There IS no mix. Still sounds good for what it is.
It's that echo coming off the drums that really stands out--that studio must have been tiny.
Rest In Peace, David Crosby(1941-2023), Gene Clark(1944-1991), and Michael Clarke(1946-1993).🌈🌈🕯🕯🌈🌈🕯🕯
One of my favorite bands. Can't tell how much of this is live but I think it's all of it. The vocal mix isn't great but the band is. Thanks for posting.
Roger McGuinn and Chris Hillman are alive and well. God bless them. Thanks for the music and the memories!
Thank God that Ed Sullivan required his performers to actually play and not lip sync. This performance, although the recording is poor - way too boomy for some reason and all the instruments bleed into one another - is awesome. How McGuinn can execute that guitar break so well live is incredible. Go Byrds!
Unfortunately, he didn't require EVERYONE to play live!....See Dave Clark Five (18 lip synched appearances)
especially as the original recording took them like 17 takes...
The only thing I could figure is that they were expecting the same level of audience hysteria they had when The Beatles appeared, and nobody did a proper sound check, because the drums sound hollow yet overpowering. However, Roger McGuinn's Rickenbacker sounds heaven-sent.
@@moosecat It sure does. I've seen him perform - on TH-cam - that solo in many contexts; with Springsteen, with Marty Stuart, and lots more. He ALWAYS nails it. It's uncanny. Meanwhile, the guys he is playing with are smiling from ear to ear, going "holy fook, I'm playing with Roger McGuinn!"
@@alexandercalder2143 I find that solo to be so beautiful I get misty-eyed hearing it. If I had to pick the most beautiful rock song, it'd be a toss-up between this or "God Only Knows".
We don't have bands like this anymore.....
Zgadzam sie. 😓
I was 17 and madly in love with the 12 string guitar. It had a sound unlike anything I had heard to that point in time. I still love the sound.
I was 15 years old, and shared your love for the 12 string sound. I couldn't afford a Rick 360 for our band. So I settled for a Univox Coily U1825. But because of Jim McGuinn, years later, and still today, I play my Rick 360/12 and still love that sound. I wonder if McGuinn knows how many people that he influenced?
A live performance here, and despite all the technical issues, there's a warmth and goodwill feel about it that makes it altogether more convincing than any overproduced studio version.
I am totally freaking out right now.
I was in high school when my mother took me and my brother to dance lessons in Tustin, CA.
The guys were on one side of the dance floor and the ladies on the other.
I always had my eyes on the most beautiful one and sprinted over to extend my hand to her.
I danced every one with her.
The final dance was to the #1 song on AM radio.
The Byrds “Turn, Turn, Turn” on 96.3 KHJ boss radio Los Ángeles.
I just locked onto her eyes and was in a trance with her.
We won the dance contest. However, I can’t dance at all.
It was all her ~56 years ago.
Thanks for putting up with me.
At the Whiskey on Sunset it was The Byrds, Love and The Doors.
I was fortunate to see all three. I am an old fart.
Good memories
One hell of a gig
I would trade all 100+ concerts I’ve seen in my 57 years to have been able to be at that exact location and time. That’s really cool you were there. The Doors first album played live. David Crosby and the Byrds and Love as well. Im in Awe!
I love Los Angeles KHJ. It was my favorite. I also remember how angry I was when it went country for awhile.
Amazing!❤
WOW! Even with the poor mixing this is what it sounds like in the GARAGE! What a treat!
They appeared on Sullivan the week this song hit #1. Happy birthday to David Crosby who, despite his best efforts, turned 80 this past week.
@Tony G. Pizza “[W]ho, despite his best efforts, turned 80 this past week.” Damn, that was funny!
@@lesliegoodman-malamuth9796 indeed!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👀
Damn🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
McGuinn and McGuire couldn't get any higher, so Crosby thought he would try.
@@MostlyBrenda a time to get high??? 🙈
" a time for peace I swear it's not too late." ☮️
The CIA, the Military-Industrial Complex, and the Neocons of both Democrat and Republican parties disagree.
Considering that the words are taken from the Bible, Ecclesiastes verse 3: 1-8 and many of the songs of the 1960's and 1970's were inspired by the Bible and Hyms that were sung by Coirs in Churches around the World, like Morning Has Broken by Cat Stevens was also sung in Europe's Protestant Churches, I'm not a Religious person but I've been surprised by how many people who claim to be Christians who have never picked up the Bible, or been to Sunday School, which was a chore for most children.
That Rickenbacker tone is killer and makes this song stand out among all the others.
"That Rickenbacker tone is killer and makes their canon stand out among all the others." [Fixed, with respect.]
@@FirewindII their canon?
@@mikibishop1516 I'm sorry, but at this point I can't remember what I was commenting on because it seems to be gone. I've been seeing suchlike happen a lot lately.
@@mikibishop1516 guess it means their body of work
@@FirewindIIyou were being a geek with a new word you had just learned
This is the greatest live version of this song with the original band you will ever find.
STILL LOVE THIS SONG IN 2023!!!!
Such an awesome old video. They hadn't figured out how to make the drums sound like not pounding on a cardboard box. Crosby and McGuinn hadn't figured out what they were going to do with their hair. But this is absolutely where it all began. Still makes me want to buy a 12 thing guitar every time I hear it.
Crosby looks like he can't remember the lyrics, and is plotting some prank. Or maybe he is just high?
You and George Harrison. And he did buy the guitar. 😊
@mosart7025 --he was mouthing the verses where Gene and Roger sing the dual lead ... the camera just happened to be on him when he was doing that. (On tbis song, David joined the two on the harmonies only.) ✌️🎵🙂
Great band and song from an truly unbelievable era!
RIP Gene, David and Michael.
Timeless lyrics from God for every generation.
Never tire of this song. David Crosby sure didn't take care of himself. He went from looking 18 to looking 55 in a one-year period.
He made it to 81 and took his last breath today. RIP
Diabetes is hard on a body as well as substance abuse. And yet he survived when so many others never made it out alive. RIP 💔✌🏾🙏🏽🕊🌹
@@cottontail8084 Yes... but with someone else's liver for the last 30 years.
@@Jonalisa754 Substance abuse and abuse of other people did him in.
@@Jonalisa754so is the mountain of cocaine and weed he did lol
I always crack up with I see David Crosby fumbling his lines and Roger staring at him above hisglasses like "Dude, don't you know the words by now?" We called them Byrd glasses back in the day.
"granny glasses"
OMG I thought it was only me. How could he not know the words?!! LOL! He was probably stoned.

One of the most beautiful songs of the 60’s
after j get around
Truth Indeed
Well Said , beautiful song forever !!!!
Biblical 🤓
Ecclesiastes.
King James.
The Byrds were never the same after the great Gene Clark left the band. R.I.P. David Crosby...you truly were the 'Master of Harmony'.
This music makes me miss the days I wasn't even born.
Seen them at The Fillmore SF, they were great.
@@thervers2140 Wow! I can wonder how fantastic it was!
Ok..... let’s sit down on that one.
I may have to use that line, awesome!
RIP David Crosby (1941-2023). It's always sad to see the good ones go, no matter how fulfilling their life might have been.
RIP David Crosby - So thankful you were in my generation and I grew up with your awesome music.
I always love the look on David Crosby's face in each video I see of him with The Byrds. That wry little smile. A bit of a naughty boy at times, so I've read, but a fabulous musician without a doubt.
Una de las bandas mas infravaloradas de la historia de la música
It's SO funny when that woman screams for David, you can see all the band members crack a smile, especially David
Love the girl screaming at 2:50. It just seems to come out of nowhere.
Nope it’s when they say the word “love”, she was waiting for it 😂
"A time for peace... I swear it's not too late".
Beautifully inspirational, eternally prophetic, and relevant still. More people need to listen to this.
Agree, though the latter half is an addition to the biblical verse
@@dsaulw "I swear it's not too late" - Pete Seeger
As long as humans are humans?.... we'll never change.
Love the girl screeeming about 2:55, then at 2:57 "David!!" (Crosby just grins). I remember asking my older brother why girls were crying and falling down (they were fainting, lol) at 60s rock bands performances. He was a very thoughtful teenager and I was a pesky little sister ten years younger. He put down his paperback (probably Fritz Lieber), thought a bit, and then he said "Because music is a powerful enchantment that says different things to each one who listens to it".
Hmm, Okay, I thought I understood even then...but I especially understand now. RIP David Crosby, in your time on Earth you were among the most grand of enchanters.
I had the honor of interviewing David Crosby this past November. This song strikes me quite personally now that he’s gone. It’s very surreal. RIP Croz.
Wow. How did that go? He was such a character! Seems like he instigated a lot of trouble, but Hillman said in his biography that when he (Chris) got hepatitis David was there for him with advice and encouragement. Did your interview run in print somewhere or was it on air?
Rest in peace Mr. David Crosby, so young in this video.
Yep that's him at 0:34.
I clearly remember my father taught me how to play arpeggio with this song. That was 40 years ago and I felt like the sound coming from the heaven. Every time I listen to this, I miss you and your sound from heaven…
Their harmony was sweeeet!!!
A time to dance a time to morn....David we will miss that smile..
Peace and love from all the hippies of the world!!🎼🎵🎶☮️☮️☮️☮️☮️🦋🦋✌️✌️✌️💔💔💔💔love Sunshine 🌞🌞✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️
We chose this song for my husband's celebration of life on August 6,2021......timeless❤
It's nice when someone takes time to celebrate life with their friends & family.
Great song and performance!! What a shame only Roger and Chris are left!!
David Crosby died today 19th January 2023 he was such a big part of our Lives growing up and sharing his music. I met him on June 2nd 1998 and he had a lovely smile. I consider that day a wonderful time of my life. I am 70 years old now and I will always love him.💜
I won't forget your name David Cosby
Rest in peace David Crosby I'll miss you're beautiful tenor voice
McGuinn's granny glasses became all the rage, but his unique guitar sound and the fabulous harmonies of the Byrds launched the folk-rock genre and even convince Dylan to go electric!
I would have to disagree wiht you my friend. The Bryds really took inspiration from the Dylan! His first (half)electric album "Bringing It All Back Home" was released in march of 65. The Byrds Released their album "Mr. Tamborine Man" (of which Turn, Turn, Turn is on) in June of 65. the Byrds covered the Dylan song "Mr. Tamborine Man", and even named their album after it! Dylan went electric and they all followed. The Byrds were all former folk singers after all. And this unique guitar sound was actually the Rickenbacher 12-string of which they took inspiration from George Harrison of the Beatles.
@@zk6642 Actually, the group began working on a folk-rock fusion in 1964. The 'Mr. Tambourine Man' recording session happened January 15, 1965. The Dylan album came out two months later. Dylan couldn't use the recording he'd made with Rambin' Jack Elliott, who was off-key. The Byrds were given a copy and McGuinn arranged it. Rehearsal takes appear on the Preflyte album in its various released configurations.
Zach you’re so wrong!
@@zk6642 Correct. Good call. Roger even said they were inspired by The Beatles twangy sound.
Dylan turned electric already 1964
Saw a mini-documentary about Gene Clark. He was very well spoken, likable and smart as a whip. Too bad he left us too early.
Truly iconic, The Byrds are absolutely one of the best 60s bands around!
True Corey one of my favorite byrds tracks is Boston the instrumental the jingle guitars are amazing 👍
Agree!
Correction:
One of the best BANDS around.
they are good, but they only had three hits, so I wouldn't go as far as saying they're one of the best, pete seeger is an AMAZING songwriter. he took words from the bible and transformed it into this. might i add roger mcguinn is a good 12 string player
@@matthue1 When they kicked out Cros they went downhill
I remember seeing this on The Ed Sullivan show
Man I miss music.
Happy eightieth birthday, David Crosby.❤️
I love David Crosby’s grin. He was doing IT!❤
Song written by Pete Seeger. Great rendition by the Byrds. Cool guitar.
With a little help from Ecclesiastes...
He composed the music and borrowed some words.
@@piustwelfth You are right about the origin of the song. I do have a Rickenbacker 660 12 string sea foam green. I like Roger McGuinn and the song a lot.
Are The Byrds in The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. If not they should be.
Yes. Inducted in 1991.
One of the greatest songs ever written
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Isaiah 54:17
King James Version
17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord.
RIP David Crosby-legend. Thanks for the music and the memories.
There is an interesting story about how Roger (Jim) McGuinn achieved his Rickenbacker sound. When The Byrds were recording initially the studio put compression in McGuinn's guitar to protect their recording equipment as recording rock music was in it's infancy. The compression punched up the sound of the Rickenbacker so I believe that McGwinn started using compression all of the time. Also at the advice of Paul Kantner (Jefferson Airplane), he also ran the guitar through treble booster. Rickenbacker actually issued a Roger McGwinn Rickenbacker guitar with compression and tremble boost built into the guitar. True story.
What is compression?😮Ty.
Power stuff! I remember the 1960s even though I was young. It seemed like it was the most real and most powerful decade of my life.
This must have been revolutionary for people watching it. They even have the hypnotic spiral behind the band, signifying the brain warp programs would begin to have on the American public who tuned in to them.
This is my favourite rendition of this song.
RIP David. Classics never grows old. Still perfect for today. Was 12 when this came out.
Pete Seeger was a great song-writer for sure.
Man the world must have changed before your eyes
happy 70th burfdae this year!!
@@dabneyoffermein595 So was whoever wrote Ecclesiastes (the Bible). :)
Happy Easter Monday & this song fits all seasons perfectly. RIP David Crosby
It was the greatest era for music. There was a vibe that, as Leonard Cohen said, and Buffy St. Marie sang so well that God was alive, and magic was afoot
The song is timeless as its message is biblical (Ecclesiates 3)!
If I had to choose the 5 best five songs not just of the 60's but all-time songs, Turn! Turn! Turn! by the Byrds would be one of them.
l am now a young 75 and as a teen through the1960s I enjoyed the London club scene big time and all my pals thought The Byrds outstripped the likes of The Beatles and The Stones by miles! Hanging on the wall in my studio, in a place of honour since 1965 after I obtained it during my first visit to Arlington Virginia is an album cover containing a vinyl LP of Mr Tambourine Man signed by the entire group which I treasure to this day. When I met Mick Jagger in Mustique in 1988, as we both shared the same Italian architect Mario Spinella, when we built our villas on Mustique and St Vincent I showed him the signed LP which he would have bought at any price, but was not for sale and remains priceless to this day. At least then I got Mick to sing at my Norwegian wife's 40th Birthday party celebration's in January 1989 on Basils Bar in Mustique and Ringo Star and Barbara Bach turned up so a great party that finished at 8 am the following morning! I still listen to the Byrds at least 2 or 3 times a week. They were then and to this day remain the best Folk Rock group EVER!!!
Hey!.....Keep Dream'in.....
Oggi 27 /03 /2022 il sogno continua , con i miei 75 anni 👍👍👍🥰🥰🥰🇮🇹
Beautiful
My oldest brother’s favorite song.
Craig is gone but I can still envision him playing the guitar melody. Why are so many songs throughout this time so memorable?
Because they spoke about our lives. Civil rights, Vietnam, injustice, etc, etc. And perhaps most importantly, they spoke the truth. The one and only truth can not be denied. There are NO ALTERNATIVE facts. Just the reality as seen by God.
Song writing. Song singing.
Band at work, working, meshing, instruments.
When the days were wealthy with this.
They read the lyrics (originally from the Book of Ecclesiastes) at Queen Elizabeth II 's Service of Thanksgiving at St. Giles Cathedral in Edinburgh, Scotland today. She would have been 29 when the Byrds played it on the Ed Sullivan Show .
39
a time to live, a time to die....rip Croz. A troubled life but a great talent.
And, man, 1965 was an astounding year for music...
Man...do I feel 'blessed and honored' to have lived the sixties (H.S. and college) and the phenomenal music of that time- great voices and wonderful wonderful songs (their meaning and beauty while being performed by masterful young artists). Today's music can hardly touch it! Yes, I feel blessed to have been a part of that musical era...so timeless and true.
Spend time in Austin. That's where the muse is today.
Born in 1996. I’m jealous.
The seventies weren't too shabby either.
@@Tom-ld9hp Agree. But the '60s always get the rap, for better and worse.
Whoops, just dated myself by using that word an arcane way...
@@Poway19 Don't be. You'll be able to love it a lot longer.
David Crosby as an original member of The Byrds, played good supporting guitar for the group. RIP ... forever.
For many 60s bands, their Ed Sullivan apparences are considered their “official videos”, due to their excellent production.
With live TV, it didn't have to be perfect. And that's why this show's music performances were so good. No special effects, no digital, no choreography. Just actual human performing. I am so glad I got to grow up with the Ed Sullivan Show. We viewers _experienced_ the bands, rather than just watch them.
Nice to hear that they were actually live and not just lip singing to a recorded track, those days are long gone.
“Lip singing”? It’s lip synching as in synchronization.
David Crosby! Smiling with dimples and before mustaches! Awesome talent.
Love this song!! Those blue glasses are groovy!!
RIP David Crosby. Thanks for all the great music.
RIP David Crosby. Your music will live forever.
Nothing like the raw, unfiltered live versions of the Ed Sullivan sessions where you get to hear stuff that you don’t catch in the studio versions like Gene Clark’s tambourine playing or the drum fills
Can't go wrong with God's Word. Ecclesiastes chapter 3. Good stuff.
Do you think that these hippies care about God?
@@jdowies In 1965, the God of the Bible was probably the farthest thing from their minds. However, In the late seventies, Roger McGuinn became a follower of Jesus Christ and still is today with his wife Camilla. Chris Hillman (bass) and his wife Connie also are now devout Christians.
@@chazbo3071fun That's great news. It's always good to hear about when someone get's saved.
Halleliuh!
@@starguy2718 Oh, you can safely bet that those who had custody of them for 1500 years have been remunerated handsomely.
One of the best songs ever.
this is precious - i was 14 years old, and i'm sure i saw this as it happened - the byrds were a game changer for me :)
It's impossible to imagine the impact of this song on a lad, just out of the Irish Catholic ghetto of education of Melbourne of the 1960s, at the University and in the Newman Society, experiencing Ecclesiastes in a mode foreign to that taught by the Brothers. We boomers in western countries are and have been the most blessed ever. I'm now a grandfather, my children don't practice, I can't imagine that my grandchilden will. Thanks for the memories, Byrds
McGuinn's guutar plaing was magical. The song was a song for the ages.
That audience was totally lit but this Byrds song smacks of greatness!
Actually the typical audience of Ed Sullivan was people old enough to be the bands parents with a few kids sprinkled here and there
@@michaelrochester48 These parents reluctantly took their kids to rock concerts while kicking and screaming.
The Byrd's is one of my very fav bands and the way their songs are getting old without losing touch and freshness is out of this world. Folk rock can be so impressive.
The Byrd's is one of the best bands in the 60s. This song is a masterpiece. The word as so true also in this time. May rest in peace: David Cosby. Best music never dies. Thank you: The Byrd's. Thank's for sharing this brillant perfomence.
I loved those days. I still do.🕊 and ❤.
My all-time favorite rock song. I truly love it and never get tired of it.
RIP David Crosby January 19, 2023 - 81 yrs old.
Love love love this tune. Praise the Lord!
A super group of the 60's
The Byrds were my all time favorite band. I saw them back in 1965 at the Veteran's Auditorium in Providence RI in 1965.
RIP David Crosby 🫶
The electric 12-string was a revolutionary sound !!!###
Love the Richenbacker guitar and the way McGuinn can work it.
