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 most important Jazz Musician of the 20th Century. Though these 'pop' performances aren't what he's really known for(except for the incredible scat singing which IS his classic style; Ella Fitzgerald was also a master of that idiom)..it's the Pre-War recordings and performances that cemented his legendary and historic status for all time.

Spyder Logan; "Pop" nothing. This is fine-as-wine jazz from the old masters at a time when network television would carry stuff like this regularly. Network TV today is unwatchable.
