I knew Steve back in 1953/1954. My name is Stuart Krell. I played tenor sax with Lionel Kaplan's Thomas Jefferson dance band. Steve did play as i recall an alto sax. He wasn't a very good sax player, but he had a singing voice that came straight from heaven. The most beautiful voice you could want to hear. I also remember that a show that we presented to the school called Student Aid. In that show then "Sid" now "Steve" sang. Seated in that auditorium was a gentlemen (talent scout), and if my memory recalls, by the name of Fred Steel. It was this gentlemen that introduced Steve to Steve Allen. He was the person that started Steve's career. Steve went on to join the Steve Allan Tonight Show. In life we all need a lucky break. I believe Steve would have achieved his great singing, acting career anyway. Steve, i have enjoyed your music throughout all the years. You are in my prayers.

Miss Gorme was truly in a league of her own....what a doll! what a voice!!!

We'll never see this caliber of talent performing LIVE again in our lifetime!!!

Steve Allen was a genius!! Terribly underrated!!

They don’t make them that great any longer - Steve and Eydie you were the greatest and I have the best memories of listening to your beautiful voices in all my youth and happy times ..

Love Steve Lawrence...he was also SO hilarious on The Carol Burnett Show!❤😂😘👍

Steve and Eydie were such an amazing couple, so very talented.

There will never be anything like this again. These were entertainers they did it all

I love Steve Lawrence’s voice even when he speaks he has a beautiful voice truly gifted

I love this. You could see how much they adored and loved one another. And when Steve Allen sang that song to them for their anniversary. I thought Steve Lawrence was going to cry. He always treated Eydie like a queen even up to the end. RIP Eydie.

Steve and Eydie were my absolute favourite singers in the industry.

Wow.....what heart-felt talent. Steve and Eydie are tremendous.....and a talent extraordinaire is Steve Allen....loved him on the Tonight Show as well....

I love this so much - and I wish there were still shows like this for musicians & singers. I can’t believe that this is where Bill Maher got his start... how great!!

Steve Allen was one of a kind....self taught on piano, I believe.

This is when talent was REAL TALENT, folks!! you'll never see the likes of this greatness ever again!!! Just incredible stuff right there!

Steve Allen was a multi-faceted Entertainer, Author, Compser, Musician and the original host of "The Tonight Show." Terry Gibbs was outstanding! Several of the guys from Doc Severinsen's, "Tonight Show" Band jammed out. "Good Stuff!"

Steve Lawrence born on July 8, 1935 died March 7, 2024 he was 88. He is now with his Eydie again. Singing beautiful songs together again in Heaven for Lord Jesus Christ Rest in Peace Steve and Eydie. Two of our Lord Jesus Christ 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

I love Edie Gorme. Such a beautiful voice. ❤

I love Steve Allen. When I was little girl I had a huge crush on Steve Lawrence and I adored Edie Gorme. And I'm a jazz fan. What a treat to find this.

Steve and Eydie were the tops. Forever.

Steve Lawrence had a great comedic timing

They don't make 'em like this anymore, very fond memories. Very wholesome television back then, thanks so much for posting.

I wish I was around in the fifties to have seen Steve and Eydie on the Steve Allen show. My mom loved watching Steve Allen each and every night.

They're such a cute, lovely, beautiful couple, Steve and Eydie! I love them!

Steve wasn't kidding around, he and Terry Gibbs got the hot-shot L.A. musicians in town to help him with his program!

Tommy Tedesco part of the Wrecking Crew studio band. Magnificat!

Utterly charming! The world needs entertainment like this! No foul-mouthed perversion like today.

Truly a treasure. The best voices in the business eternally. Much love to Steve and Eydie.

Wow what a fantastic show ! I never saw this before. How genuine and really entertaining in a classy funny way. I adore the mentality of before when people were still well-mannered and all that cursing like nowadays was not in style. I discovered Eydie Gorme here on KZfaq ( Thanks KZfaq ! 🌞) and was immediately blown away by her voice, even more in Spanish. I studied her songs for my Spanish class. Now I am even discovering these fantastic performances of Eydie, Steve and other stars of back in the day. It is so refreshing to watch these exquisite performers. I am now 45 , but I just love and adore the older music. Lots of love and respect from Belgium.💯👍🍀👋❤️

The real deal!!! Those were the days.

We’ll never see the likes of this again what talent and a pleasure this was to watch

LOVE Steve & Eydie. Steve Lawrence was so good-looking, had such a superb voice and style, and came across as a thoroughly nice, decent guy. Also love Steven Allen & gorgeous, sophisticated Jayne Meadows. RIP all of you. Wish we had people like this in show business today. A different world.

thanks TG. what a song.. "Steve and Eydie" lovely. heartfelt, RIP beautiful Eydie my favorite Singer of all times.

Two of the all-time best withouta doubt...head and shoulder above anything that purports to be talent in the (c)rap era of noise...this is real music the way GOD meant it to be. The nicest thing I can say is a quote from Old Blue Eyes, the Chairman of the Board, Francis Albert Sinatra. When asked "What is it like to be the greatest singer of all time?" Sinatra said "I wouldn't know, you'd have to ask Steve Lawrence."

What a wonderful hour! I've been a Terry Gibbs Dream Band fan since I "found" them in the 1960s, so this was real treat. Likewise, I've loved Steve and Eydie for years, and saw them a few times, live. Thank you so much for posting this treasure. If only we could have this sort of stuff on today............

The musicians are incredible. Mr. Allen was an excellent piano player. What a show!!!!

They billed the band "Terry Gibbs and His All Star Orchestra," and that is not hyperbole! The band consisted of some of the absolute best studio musicians in the business.These musicians could sight read these superb arrangements with incredible accuracy and pizzazz!!! It doesn't surprise me though, knowing Steve's commitment to excellence when it comes to music. BTW, bandleader Terry Gibbs is still with us. He will be 99 in a couple of months!!!

Even better than the brilliant music, they all look like they’re having so much fun!

Such a delight, such a different time, so lovely to remember, so heart warming.

I love Steve and Eydie. RIP

Yes, on writing to Steve on the sad passing of Eydie I commented that she had one of the great voices of popular song. Steve was forever the first to praise the talent he had the privilege to be with for over 50 years. Not only probably the most talented singing duo but truly a special couple.

TG thanks SO MUCH for posting all these Music Room videos. True treasures of American music and incredible musicians!!!!

I see yet another additional uncredited piano player, the very talented Terry Trotter who was Steve and Eydie's piano player playing right behind S&E when they sung. In 1983 this was a who's who of the finest LA session musicians! Wow!

Absolutely superb ...

Here in the UK (and even more so the musical and cultural desert that is Scotland) we had daytime shows like Pebble Mill at One where you had maybe Jack Jones on to sing 2 numbers, and other quality guests of this genre but I'd have given my left left to have been around when shows like this were aired in the US. My favourite big band, so many superb MUSICAL guests - no awful reality TV fillers for the masses. The UK TV channels certainly catered to the musically illiterate in copious supply then, and it's so much worse now. This is a joy to watch.

I was around in the fifties when Steve and Eydie were my favorites. Including my starter wife. We were married on the same day they were. I think Valentine's day 1957.

I had never actually heard Steve play before. What a talented man. And funny.

I was SO fortunate to have seen them multiple times at Westbury music fair. They were magnificent, their orchestra was outstanding, their rapport on stage, the schticloch, the jokes and banter between them, came as a result of talent, hard work and a lifetime of dedication. Nevermore.

Great singers of all time!

As much as I adore Edie's singing style I do wish they would both hold that microphone closer so that I could hear that dynamic soulful voice above the accompaniment. Edi love you.

I miss these Old Pros!!!!! ALL EXCELLENT!!!!

Always loved Steve Allen..This was a great show that brought tears to my eyes because!!!!when he did the tonight show before CARSON HE WAS VERY GOOD TOO..Steve/Edie/Don Knotts/and Louie Nye ha ha the man on the street bits were so funny..then jose Jimenez....They did this show one week a year at the Ambassador Hotel Pool. my dad managed THE HOTEL AND THE FAMOUS NIGHTCLUB IN THE HOTEL 'The world famous 'Coconut Grove'in Los Angeles....Its now the Robert Kennedy high school...I used to go outside the pool area when they did the show..I met everyone and played putt putt golf with them all..I won,I played everyday..lol..I was 13/14 years old..Steve also did the same thing at the Saxony Hotel in Miami Beach when dad managed two hotels,the Saxony and the Fountainebleau hotel..I was in 11th grade...

Steve Allen did the musical version of Alice in Wonderland. It was amazing.

Steve Allen as usual a pure class of a show from this most versatile of artist. Steve & Eydie probably the most talented popular music singing duo. So very special - Mr & Mrs Entertainment.

Soooo good. What tv used to be.

This show is excellent from start to finish. I miss all of them so much, though I feel lucky that this and other videos exist, and that I can still listen to their music. We didn’t know how good we had it until we didn’t have it anymore. Thanks so much for posting this!

What a jewel I've just found!! Thanks you for uploading. Also thank you Jô Soares!

Steve Allen was an exceptionally talented entertainer!!!

Wow!! That song "Steve & Eydie" composed by Steve Allen is so beautiful!! I cried so much while listening to the song. Really really nice, wonderful song and lyrics.

Best hour I've spent in years...

Eydie is so beautiful in ANY STYLES!

Tommy Tedesco, a member of "The Wrecking Crew", which was the group of studio musicians that played for all the great recording artists of the 60's.

We lived in Burbank for many years and were fortunate to witness history. It was early TV, live and Steve Allen was famous in Hollywood to seek out serious talent. While the show seemed a little silly and goofy at times, don't be fooled folks. Musicians and guests were real pros and most of them built careers well into the future. These videos bring back sweet memories of a bygone era. Thanks for the great post!

Dear TGmovier. Thank you very kindly for uploading these rare Disney Channel originals of 1983. I can finally enjoy these one of a kind programs that i was unable to see when i was a kid in the eighties. Reason for that my parents wasn't spending unnecessary money for a cable box for more pay cable 📺 in the house. HBO was more than enough. And i was getting bad grades in school because i focused on too much television already. What a shame. But once again. Thank you so much for reviving Steve Allen's Music Room.

What an incredible talent! Miss him!

THIS WAS SOOO MUCH FUN!! Real entertainment by really incomparably talented artists.

I LOVE THEM AND ALL!!!! THE MUSICIANS AND MUSIC ARE PERFECTION!!! LOVE THAT JAYNE!!!! I wish these performers would be on every night!!!! I loved them as a child and am so happy to hear them sing!!! God Bless all!!! :)

This is a treasure, thank you so much. ♡

This is superb. Thank you!

What a pleasant surprise. I never knew this existed! Absolutely priceless. I hope there are more episodes.

Those were the days

Wonderful

What a Band line up . Plas Johnson the Pink panther Tenor Guy.

GLORIOUS!!!! STAYED UP LATE ALL THRU HIGH SCHOOL TO WATCH THESE AMAZING PEOPLE BUT MANAGED TO GRADUATE ANYWAY, A MUCH HAPPIER FELLOW.

I think it's important to note that no toupees were harmed in the making of this sequence.

What a great show this was. Thanks for posting this

Very fun!

Brilliant talents all 'round. A performance from the golden age of Pop Entertainment.

I have lots of Steve Allen dvd's but not this one, Thank Yoooou !!!

As of May 27,2021 Steve Lawrence is still alive

One actually had to know music back then, no digital anything. Swing out!

Rest in Peace Steve Lawrence.

Most enjoyable!

My family loved Steve and Edye so much that followed their schedules in Variety and if they were performing in Las Vegas we packed and went to see them!

Steve and Eydie are very funny. They could do a comedy show along with their great singing!

1984.....everyone had a white shirt! Old show biz is the best show biz.

The Best Eydie and Steve

Superb ... thank you very much indeed.

Half the band are Nelson Riddle originals.

Wow. Young Bill Maher as the MC. Classic.

Terrific. Thanks.

I was 19 when this was on the air. I certainly knew of all of them...and recall my feeling that they were pleasant, if somewhat benign TV and recording stars, but they were my parents and grandparents time. My time was early SNL, Eddie Murphy, Steve Martin and Robin Williams. Now, seeing this from much farther in the future and juxtaposed through that lens of change that embraces decades of edgier and often cruder tastes, they seem to be the epitome of what is long-lost, old-school good taste. These collective talents were learned, polished and honed in countless theaters, nightclubs and stages, all while embracing the hard work that true talent requires to become something enduring and memorable. Their performances, banter and wit are seemingly effortless, breezy, sweet and completely approachable for all people of all ages. Especially a man of wit and charm like Steve Allen. He was a singular tour de force of the early television era, and a man of multi-dimensional talent....and not just performances. He was also quite the author and wrote numerous fiction and non-fiction tomes and he also had a knack for picking out upcoming talent. In this special you see Steve Lawrence and Eydi Gorme...who he gave a big stage to in the mid 1950s, to having the scandalous Lenny Bruce on his late 1950s show ....to this show with cameos by Bill Maher..who we all know today.

I wasn't paying attention to the announcer until Steve said Bill Maher. Went back and listened and, yep, the comedian. And for those in the know, Tommy Tedesco was one of the Wrecking Crew.

What a superb bunch of cool vats!

Where was I when this show started?!!! Fantastic!!!!

Fantastic beateful

Wonderful to hear the side men taking solos without playing ten thousand notes per measure. And Tommy Tedesco playing something other than nylon.

I miss those tv days

omg - Plas Johnson (ts) in the Terry Gibbs Band. Plas played the original Pink Panther theme!

Steve allen!!!!!!!
