A marvelous souvenir from TV's Golden Age! Kate was fantastic, and Jackie and his orchestra were phenomenal! I also liked Jackie's lyrics to 'Melancholy Serenade'.
No one matches the glorious voice of Miss Kate Smith! Her rendition of "Melancholy Serenade" performed here is brilliant; she's so connected to the lyric.
Thank you so much for sharing this show. What a great pair of talents. Not to be outdone... 50 years from now, people will be commenting on great talents... like Dead Mouse, Lady Gaga, and Johnny Depp. Ahhh the good old days.
Wow - I never knew Jackie Gleason was also a composer! That Riff Jazz stuff is very catchy - I like it a lot and yes it does remind one of the War years music - Big Band.

No one like her before or since!
I used to listen to her radio show with my parents when I was a kid! Then early TV shows!! Glad they’re on U tube!
amazing old television entertainment
This was the era when people SANG .... LIVE ... with nothing pre-recorded. Wow. I'd love to see someone, anyone do that today. Dennis
While the show was pre-recorded, Kate's vocals were indeed performed LIVE before a studio audience.
Encore! I'm speechless!
Kate Smith was the consummate professional and a truly wonderful, great lady. This was an awesome program! Thank you very much for sharing it with us!
About six weeks before I was born. But I knew that world as I grew.
Wow - I never knew Jackie Gleason was also a composer! That Riff Jazz stuff is very catchy - I like it a lot and yes it does remind one of the War years music - Big Band.
I never heard the words to Jackie's great theme song before!
Kate lays it down smooth, man!
Jeepers!
Please more videos of her complete TV shows. More please more, more and more !!!😇🤗😱❤️
Never knew it had lyrics! Two musical giants in one video!
“This is Johnny Olson speaking…..goodniiight!”…CLASSIC
He later became Jackie's announcer on his variety show during the 1960's.
I'd love to know the names of those orchestra soloists. Fantastic.
Tollway Treat - best JG song ever!!! Hands down!!!

That's conducting?
Jackie Gleason could do it all he was marvelous and Kate Smith was a lovely lady with a magnificent voice !!!!!
Scott Miller perfect pitch and time
He also co-produced Kate's program with her manager, Ted Collins.
@@fromthesidelines - Noticed quite a few names who would later be connected with Gleason's later '60's variety show, including Ronald Wayne.
And Jackie's announcer, Johnny Olson!
