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.

Harry was an amazing trumpet player.

[@maximem1033]

What a legend ❤️

[@philiponcale1820]

Definitely a 1940's big band swing tone to his playing. He was great.

[@tommiller9230]

The drummer is cooking!

[@PhantomDrums917]

That's my teacher!! The amazing Tony DeNicola!!!!

[@williamchapman2371]

at his age in this video he still has a great pair of lungs to perform these intense songs. Bravo

[@Johnnycdrums]

Oh, yeah!
By 66' he easily still had it.

[@joksal9108]

He was only 50 here, though he looked older. Great player.

[@markgeiger7700]

ha! ,at his age you say!!😂😂😂.. this es 1966..I was 2 years old.... I saw him live at my high school in 1982 and he and his band were KILLLIN IT!!

[@Johnnycdrums]

@@markgeiger7700; Ya the were.

[@SuperKeswick]

How cool is Harry James here ! fantastic!

[@robmac6508]

It's definitely one of Herb Alpert's signature tunes, however Harry more than does it justice 🎺👍

[@johnperry5102]

put on more big bands there great

[@johnnytoobad7785]

The NYC Big Band Version of a classic song.

[@dagallgray]

Would love to see a listing of all the members of the band (names, instruments).
Great preserved record!

[@ubilo]

The Big Bands were special.

[@brucekuehn4031]

It’s hard not to hear Herb Alpert and the TJB on this arrangement, but Harry James shows off his trumpet skills that were always very impressive! The Tijuana Brass had a monster hit album, Whipped Cream & Other Delights in 1965, and this became a hit single.
Don’t forget though, The Beatles sang the song on their first studio album (Please Please Me) released in the UK in March of 1963.

[@trickydick6152]

Sure, he showed off his instrumental mastery but he had to pick up Alpert's arrangement, in spite of the mockery he made of him about his limited technique. That says a lot about pop and jazz approach to music. Alpert (or whoever) came up with the walking bass and the syncopated phrases: it was little but it made all of the difference.

[@haraldtrittner4396]

Top...very cool swingin, i like it!

[@that70sgirl90]

How Sweet it is!
Happy Maundy Thursday! 🕊 🙏 🐰

Wow!That was fantastic! Harry was a cool dude 😎 and I love his older swing stuff from the '40s too! Great orchestra!🤩

[@calvinbealer7264]
