- A special hour-long tribute to composer Jule Styne, featuring Ethel Merman, Sammy Davis Jr., Betty Comden, Adolph Green, Marvin Hamlisch, and Phyllis Newman. Styne performs several of his hits. 1978 TV. Suitable for children.
Jule Styne is so great Broadway owes a lot to him.
WOW! What a great show... Unbelievable talent on this entire show... thanks so much for posting!!! Sadly, everyone on the show has passed on.
Julie was the Greatest.
A True Gentleman in person. RIP
Betty Comden is such a treasure. Elegant but relatable. Regal but down-to-earth. Brilliant but still humble.
Merv- he made you feel like a neighbor, a confidant and mensch. He was enamoured by talent and guests just felt confident in his company. I waited every day after high school to watch his shows.
His name had always been familiar to me but when I read down a list of the notable songs he had written the cliche that my jaw dropped to the floor certainly applies. "The Christmas Waltz" and "Small World" are two of my favorites. The fact that his Broadway career wound up with three flops including "The Red Shoes" which opened and closed the year before he died and lost a reported eight million is so sad and yet I get the impression he just was not the retiring type. He simply did what he was born to do.
WOW!!!! What a blast from the past. I adored this from beginning to end. why can’t this be what daytime TV is now?!?!
Jule Styne, great composer Broadway!
They cut out the interview with Davis and Merman. Shucks.
Brilliant...... I'm talking about Sammy Davis's 6 Rings
Funny, you're a stranger who's come here,
Come from another town.
Funny, I'm a stranger myself here.
Small world, isn't it?
Funny, you're a man who goes traveling
Rather than settling down.
Funny, 'cause I'd love to go traveling.
Small world, isn't it?
We have so much in common,
It's a phenomenon.
We could pool our resources
By joining forces from now on.
Lucky, you're a man who likes children.
That's an important sign.
Lucky, I'm a woman with children.
Small world, isn't it?
Funny, isn't it small and funny and fine?
We have so much in common,

I actually bought Merm's lp of disco. Was a trip. Saw her at the Hollywood Bowl performance. Miss that era.
Jay Hartbarger lol I remember that disco merman stuff
At the beginning of the movie Gypsy (1962) the great Jule Styne is shown conducting the orchestra playing the overture.
Love It. Dem days ain't never comin' back.
Come to think of It. Neither am I.
Wow, I didn’t realize Merv could sing! Beautiful show!
Ryan H. Lee he started out as a singer, was in a Musical with Kathryn Grayson So This is Love. Also released a few albums.
They say that Sammy is leaving to go to his show at the Westbury Music Fair. Merman is interviewed after her song.
Ethel is great here! Thanks for sharing yet another gem!
I know all his songs but never heard of Jules. I need too look into his catalog. His songs are what we call standards.gold standards...
Check out "Gypsy", "Funny Girl," "Bells are Ringing," just to name a few.
Love Miss Merman!
I like P. Newman, but that show sucked big time. Watching her do a number from it was a fine example of that.
🤣🤣
But I love her so much she could sing the phonebook as far as I’m concerned
Sammy Davis was a fantastic entertainer.
Merman will always be the Gold Standard for all Broadway musical performers.
They did not acknowledge that Stephen Sondheim wrote the lyrics to "Some People."
I just love Jule Styne.
Yes, a musical genius.
1hour of top-notch entertainment!.
Those TV shows, like Merv Griffin were more sophisticated when the show was made in NYC
Great show!
Can't believe they didn't start the show with Ethel!
What an amazing talent.
Isn't her best performance?
Adolph Green's tan looks kinda scary.... Otherwise, this was amazing. Merman's voice is just astounding!
TALENT!!!!!! BRILLIANCE!!!!!!!
YIKES! They are ALL dead now!
It’s over 40 years ago and they were all older then.
Rest in peace to all of them. You will not be forgotten.
@@filmmekker Marvin Hamlisch was pretty young then. Sadly, he died at only 68.
Talent of their level never dies. They live on.
Rex Lex: YIKES! And so someday will you!!!
