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.

Pearl Bailey was such a talented and versatile performer and she was a knock out in Hello Dolly. My sister came to see this show while it played at the Minskoff Theater...her leading man was Billy Daniel's and they were perfect together. It was a night I will always remember.

I had the incredible good fortune to see this production when it came to the Kennedy Center for a limited engagement. After Ms. Bailey and the ensemble performed the title number, the audience gave them a standing ovation for 10 minutes. Finally, Ms. Bailey had to step forward and address the audience directly. She said, “I guess if you enjoyed it that much, we’ll have to do it again”. Then they reset the stage, and did the entire number a second time from beginning to end. Another five minute standing, ovation followed, at which point, Ms. Bailey told everyone they were going to have to get on with the show. I have never witnessed such an amazing energy at any other theater performance before or since; I treasure the memory of that experience to this day.

In my humble opinion, Pearl Bailey was the best Dolly. She won a special Tony award. Not usually given for a revival but Pearl Bailey was a Legend on Broadway.

@BrooklynDreaminCG Жыл бұрын

I think it was actually a re-cast rather than a revival. And that was what made the award so special. I had the LP of the show with her and her cast when i was a teen. Phenomenal.

@@BrooklynDreaminCGAs a teen in NYC, I was in the audience for the Pearl Bailey version of Hello Dolly. She was unforgettable. Cab Calloway played her husband, Horace. And sitting behind me was Loretta Young. Ms. Bailey asked Ms. Young to join her on stage for a reprisal of the song Hello Dearie at the conclusion of the performance. That too was an unforgettable moment....Broadway magic! I also saw Ginger Rogers play Dolly before Pearl Bailey. And her energy was larger than life and oh so entertaining. Many years later a friend of mine got to meet Ginger Rogers and I enquired: What was she like? And my friend, with tongue in cheek, said, 'Very Blonde'.

Yet another clip that shows just how much superb musical entertainment TV offered up to the mid 70’s. The review shows like Ed Sullivan and Hollywood Palace, the dozens of variety shows, the specials - every great entertainer of the time right in your living room. It really was a golden era of entertainment, but we just didn’t realize it.

"Hello, Dolly!" was one of the first shows I ever performed in as a kid, and our director used the cast recording with Pearl Bailey and Cab Calloway as a temp track so we could learn the choreography without the pianist. To me, she will always be the one and only Dolly Levi.

The show was starting to look a little tired (it had been on for three years, which was a good long run in those days) and looked like it was about to close until David Merrick put in Pearl Bailey and the Black cast and made the show a hit all over again. This clip partly shows why.

Funny how I found an old LP from 1960ish at a thrift store that she did on a budget label just the other day. It's such a budget label (Diplomat is the name, if you can find it) that she has to share the album with another unknown cabaret singer of the day - who is equally as good as Pearl - named Margie Anderson. This was a common practice for this label so they don't have to pay the bigger star more money. And then this video pops up. KZfaq is reading my record collection apparently. Anyway I recommend the album which is called "Singing and Swinging">

No. Watch Carol’s bootleg videos, her acting is unrivaled. You’ve probably just seen her rushed Tony Awards performance… when Carol performed the monologue in an actual show… she broke hearts.
