David was my favorite! I was so in love with him.

David sounds like he was just as nice and good a person as his younger brother. I have to believe that them being the way they were was a very good reflection of who their parents were and how they raised their sons. 🙂👍

I always enjoyed the Ozzie and Harriet Show. It's too bad that this type program no longer exists on television.

What a lovely man David is. I am blown away by the kind kind adoring words for Ricky. Boy Ozzie and Harriet should have received an award for Best parents. These two children are testament to being brought up with such lovely values and respect for one another. 😘

What absolute gems these two gentlemen were. Honest, polite, good-looking, talented. They will long be remembered and missed.

Won't ever forget Rick Nelson, nor the whole family. I still watch the shows.

David was a class act

I loved the Ozzie and Harriet show as a kid. Good feelings always from that show and time of my life as a little kid. David and Rick Nelson were are great people wish we had more men like them around. They are both gone now but to know them and the entire family was to LOVE them. Sweet sweet times gone by. 💕

Met Rick at a party in Aspen, CO around 1975. I was a musician as well at that time. We met in a buffet line, sat down across from each other and had a long, wonderful conversation about both of our lives and families. One of the nicest people Ive ever met in my life. Everyone else was drinking some form of booze. Rick was drinking coffee. A true professional. A wonderful experience and I’ll never forget it.

I so enjoyed this video. I've often wondered how David felt about Rick's rise to fame. This shows family at it's best. Celebrating the good things that happen in families and the sorrows. I grew up as a young girl watching Ozzie and Harriet and having my first crush on Ricky ! Lol ! Telling my age, but those were the good old days. I remember being in tears,crying my eyes out when we heard the news of the plane crash ,Ricky's death and everyone with him. Meet you in Paradise one day !!

Wow, I totally love that! Mr. and Mrs. Nelson sure raised two respectful and kindhearted gentleman. What a treasure this is! So sad that we lost David also, must be about 10, 11 years ago. Thank you to the person who posted this awesome interview, it's really is wonderful!!! 🌼

Well done interview. David and Rick must have had a very good relationship for David not to have felt overshadowed and somewhat jealous of Rick's greater success.

Thank you for this amazing interview with David..DEFINITELY A CLASS ACT AND MORE. 🙂

What a joy to hear David speak.

Miss these guys! Class, talented and over all, wonderful people.

What a classy, well spoken man.

David’s love for his younger brother was obvious after his death when he was out front defending his memory when the haters choose to try to bring his reputation down. His Stone Canyon Band doesn’t get enough credit as a pioneer in the LA sound that was the foundation of modern country.

Thanks to the entire Nelson Family for some of My Favorite TV Memories!!! Love U ALL!!!

Rick and Dave were both good guys. It surely was a different time in America sadly

David , a polite man who was grateful for his life. He loved his brother and it was obvious they were different in that Rick loved performing and was a natural. I’m sure thru Rick’s personal challenges that he was fortunate to have an older brother like David to share things with.

I absolutely loved hearing this wonderful interview with David Nelson about his brother and also their life together. Sadly they are both gone now. I remember well their television series and always enjoyed seeing it. David and Ricky both have always seemed like the nicest guys. They are both remembered with much affection. Thanks for sharing this.

David was just as handsome as Rick. He had a kind of quiet charm about him. He was my favorite. Nice to know he did not envy his brother but was happy for him.

Dang David was a good looking young man back in the day!

Very respectful interview and David is a decent man.

Great interview. Lovely guy 👍🏼😁❤️

Thanks David, when the show was online, I enjoyed your program on tv always. I remember the radio show not much, but I enjoyed it and it moved me to want to view the tv show.

Enjoyed this interview very much. Dave Nelson was a stand-up gentleman and family man himself. I always admired their entire family on their TV show and it helped me develop a '"moral compass" as to how people should treat others, esp. the opposite sex. Unfortunately, things started going sideways when the late sixties hit, and the music and culture changed for the worse. We will really have to work at it to return to the attitudes of the golden era of American family life. Loved the later years show with June ( a real beauty) also, although some fans thought she was overly at times. I think she is still living last time I checked.

Good interview. Loved the Nelson's, especially Rick.

I use to watch Ozzie & Harriet When I was a kid, loved that show & loved the Nelson Family Was a real Ricky Nelson fan. What a great Family with great principles , I liked the comedy of The show & This interview that David Nelson was one of the best I’ve seen. Learned many things I hadn’t known. David , thank you so much for sharing the life you had with your beloved brother Ricky & your family and you were also a favorite of mine. Best to All The Nelson Family 💕🥰💕

both boys had big fan clubs... no cell phones, no internet... sweet

David and Nelson Rick Nelson were good people

It’s so refreshing to hear this interview and you could hear and feel the love that the family had fir each other. In todays world there is so much fighting and nastiness with the Hollywood families this was such an uplifting story of great loving parents that is getting rare in the entertainment world. David seemed like such a good human being.

I literally used to watch your show when I was literally in nappies. I was born in 1957 so I am assuming it was in re-runs. Loved Ricky all my life, loving his music & voice & & still do. RIP.

Wow that was my favorite shows back then.loved them all.when rick starting singing on the show.ricky was sooo cute growing up.

Rip to Rick and David Nelson loved the Nelson grew up watching them still watch on reruns or DVD. Happy birthday Ricky, may 8.you are missed.

I’ve seen Rick in many photos with his children & 2 videos & it’s clear that he had such awe & love in his eyes when looking at them...it seemed as if he was thinking they were such amazing & beautiful children, he almost couldn’t believe they were his! There seemed a reverence he held for them...take a look, if you haven’t. It’s beautiful to see it! And how he was a very hands-on dad when he was home. I’m sure both these guys were that way, given the parents they had. Love them both! Sadly miss them both, as well. ♥️♥️

I am so happy to know that David was just the sweetest man I always thought he was ! Such a nice interview . David was my favorite in the show! I watch Ozzie and Harriet everyday .A decent and fun family show that had so many good memories !

I was heart broken when he passed.

Ricky Nelson is really a great singer.

I loved growing up with. "Ozzie & Harriet"... I "fell"hard for Ricky Nelson in my teenage years... 😊😊

A wonderful interview. I remember David and Ricky all the way back to my earliest memories as a very little kid and television just starting and seeing them on the O & H Show. As I got older and started to do things with friends...going to dances, ect...I enjoyed his songs . Also his roles in he movies...always thought he did a good job. It was a terrable shock when the accident happened and I struggled with that because as I said, I grew up with him, in a way. It was certainly nice to hear David talking about the family and his kid brother. Thanks for doing this. It was very nice.

I had the BIGGEST crush on David growing up. Yes, Ricky was definitely a cutie pie, but David!!!!

Beautiful to hear David speaking about his brother Rick. Thoroughly enjoyed this interview through tears. Rick is gorgeous in heart, body & soul❤️‍🔥

Remembering David as well. RIP David Nelson.

Great interview!!!! Thanks for sharing it with us. May GOD bless you and yours.

A great family great people wonderfully memories good family values. Love them as a kid. Always admired them

Ricky Nelson was gorgeous. David was the older sensible brother. Love them as a kid.

I agree with the lady it's a shame our children can't enjoy this type of programming today

Was a big fan of the "Ozzie & Harriet" TV show. Great interview of David Nelson. Really good questions. Thank you for posting.

Great interview Dave your a wonderful person

Yes I do remember them I enjoyed all of there shows I hope David has nice life , nice family also

Love you, David Nelson. You are just as sweet as when you were a kid. God Bless.

I loved Ricky Nelson music.

I met Dave and Ricky when they cam to see "The Graduate" and they were just as real and wholesome as they were on there TV show.. I always related to Ricky because I was the younger brother and majored in acting and then became a singer songwriter and did a single act, But not everyone becomes famous. "The Newbie Brother's" is our you tube channel with 17 original songs we were blessed to write.

Wow, what a great interview. David was amazing

Yes sir friend. DAVID I REALLY REMEMBER RICKY ALL THE SHOWS IVE WACHED SO MANY TIMES ON DVD WE HAVE AND REGULARLY TV. MAN DAVID ITS AN JOY TO SEE YOU LOTS OF FUN WATCH ING. YOU AND YIUR WHOLE FAMILY MAN . TIME JUST SUITS AWAY I AM HAPPY TO SEE YOU DAVID. GOD BLESS YOU VERYMUCH.

I STILL LOVE, THE OZZIE AND HARRIET SHOW, I'M 72. IT WAS FUN TO SEE TEENAGE STARS AND SINGERS. REALLY COOL!

I remember where I was at and what I was doing when news aired Ricks passing a very sad day love his music

Loved the nelson family

37 Yrs today Dec 31 2022 since Rick , Band, & Helen died in that plane crash. Today I will do what I do every New Yrs Eve. Say a prayer for them & play Ricks Music. I remember fondly seeing Rick & The Stone Canyon Band at New Yorks Bottom Line where they put on a great show playing songs from, their just released Intakes Lp & Ricks hits from the Imperial Records Yrs. Rick up in Heaven jamming with his friends Carl Perkins, Elvis, Jerry Lee, Buddy, Eddie Cochrane, Chuck, Fats, Roy! .Ozzie, Harriet, David residing in The Kingdom Of God. Love them all🎙🎸🎹📻🕇🌷🕊💕

Võrratu näide kahe venna vahelisest sõprusest! Kogu see neljaliikmeline perekond on üldse eeskujuks kõigile. Sealt edasi kujunes imeliseks ka Ricky enda pereelu. Andeka muusikuna ei muutunud Ricky ülbeks ega hoolimatuks oma nelja lapse suhtes. Hea on kuulda Davidi meenutusi oma vennast.

I LIKED this FAMILY. And SHOWs. GREAT Interview. R.I.P. OZZIE, HARRIET, RICK & KRISTIN🙏

David sound’s just like his brother

I always liked David. He was handsome. Rick was cute.

I love them both so much. May they rest in peace. Streamed all shows and going to watch again. Love every one except Ozzie was annoying. God bless the Nelson family.

Excellent !!!

what a wonderful Guy . humble and kind. a big fan of Rick`s Records , having dinner at a restaurant in Studio City , seated right next to us was Rick and his Wife , early 1980`s . I never said a word , didn`t want to act like . . . 'Fan Boy'.

Would be great to make shows that brought out good manners and loving family relationships. Those were good lessons for life!

Loved all the Nelson 's , also Dave's wife and Kristen...❤

Loved the show as a young kid ❤ Ricky was my first school crush.

I always thought that they were as good as anyone you'd like to know.

David really looks like his dad.

Love the Nelson’s

I have never seen Ozzie and Harriet show until now, I discover it on Roku - so i’m binged watch it and love that show 😊

David mentions it, but Rick was a great tennis player in his younger years, and considered doing more with it, but entertainment took off.😊😊

"Hello MaryLou".......another beautiful song, by Gene Pitney! A fan of these two when I was a young lass.

How to remember Rick? He was a really really nice guy. And, he & the band kicked a||.

DAvid and his wife June owned a summer house a block down the street from us in Newport Shores, Newport Beach, CA in the mid-60s. Never saw him, but my mom talked to June. I was 11 and knew more about Ricky than him at the time.

Loved the story about the Hitching Post, where the kids went dressed in western clothes and had to check a gun at the door. Hilarious. I didn't get into O & H before 1956, when maybe I was allowed to stay up a little later. If it was on Friday nights in the beginning, my dad watched the Friday night fights, so I wouldn't have been allowed. Besides, I was 5 in '52 so starting in early '56 I was 8, the right time to pick it up - around the time Rick cut his first record.

David looks like Ozzie

Great interview, except that the speed slows down somewhere around 18.00, then the speech becomes very laboured and difficult to hear. Hope it can be fixed.

It was different world back David and Rockie growing up. Things just started changing with the kids Rockie was wat high school age. Now there s all kids crazy habits people have dressed so different. Language way different now. Way way different

I haven't listened to thus all but I think he is discussing Ricky to much. David did a lot of interesting things.

Nice family!

David Nelson died January 11, 2011 at age 74.

Does anyone know where parts 1 & 2 are of Remembering Ricky? I’m only seeing Parts 3-6 now! A month ago I could see Parts 1 through 6! This was a wonderful labor of Love! Thank you, Mr. John Powers! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

What is David doing now ?

lovesong😇🥰😍🤩😘

Hi, David ist so friendly, always Smile, very nice. His Brother looks always unfriendly, He looks grim. I thought He arrogant. David ist an modest Person. Ricky Nelson was an good Singer and guitar Player, but James Burton was ver, very, very good.

It's on the Roko channel

Always wondered if they were a Christian family who lived the values of Christ ... And Ricky's wisecracks were classic ...

This is not new! David Nelson died in 2011 at the age of 74 years old!

We loved Ricky, the Family showed us that it was usual be a good kids. It’s the one TV program we never missed. Now, TV is just grossly dumbed down. I stopped watching after the d’🤗ranged Monarch showed up.

ADDED NOVEMBER 26TH SUNDAY 2023 I am listening SOUTH PACIFIC SEAS ON AN ISLAND KIA ORANA E KIA MANUIA

David was an

This was great but, how about asking ABOUT DAVE! You're remembering DAVID not Rick. Dave had a great life too. This wasn't fair to Dave.

Absolutely not happening with the crap they have on today.

Died 1/11/2011

A literal duplicate of his dad.

Wait a minute david died of cancer in 2011.
