- Great Special from the mid-1970s. A Salute to Irving Berlin.
The opening medley is incredible. Of course, Steve Lawrence and Eydie Grome do a great duet to close the show.
In between Carol Burnett joins Eydie in a sort of military themed medley. Sammy Davis joins Steve for a medley of Irving Berlin songs made famous by Fred Astair. Pianist Oscar Peterson also has a standout performance.
Note: During this show, Sammy sings Alexander's Ragtime taking it from the minstrel in blackface to disco. Some people may find this offensive.
What has to all of us? We have gone straight in to the toilet. Back then everything was about class, dignity, integrity and pure wholesome entertainment. Now its all about swearing, talking about body parts, hating each other. This clip is an escape when my life was surrounded by classy acts and extraordinary human beings.
Well, Steve is now with his sweetie. Hope they sing to the heavens forever. Thanks for the music. This show is too much...in a great way.
We lost Steve on March 7, 2024. So sad. I heard he was really sick by his son David. It must really take a toll. In the beginning he said it was in the early stage and that medicine had slowed it down. RIP Steve your with Eydie now. You always looked so lost without her.
Eydie Gorme was a powerhouse as a singer, so was Sammy Davies,Jr. as an all-around entertainer. How glad and proud I am to have enjoyed (and still enjoy) listening and watching artists of this caliber as this four ones. Oscar Peterson was a great jazz pianist and was influenced by the great Nat "king" Cole on singing.They don't make them anymore.
I didn't realize Carol Burnet was such a great singer❤😊
She's fantastic. She doesn't think so. She
more than holds her own with the fabulous Steve, Eydie and Sammy. These were the days of music and stars.
Absolutely Ms Burnet was truly a powerhouse of talent and excelled in every department. She was entertainment personified.
Just getting to listen to Oscar Peterson once more made it worth it. That is Jazz at it's best.
Now, That's Entertainment !!! 😊
I love this show
I'm glad you enjoyed it.
28:11 Just yesterday I was singing "I Love a Piano." Came to me out of the clear blue. Don't know why, but there it was tripping off my lips. And then Eydie says this! I love these kinds of coincidences.
The original context of "Suppertime" was that of an African American woman whose husband had been lynched, and she didn't know how to break the news to her children. Irving Berlin wrote the song for Ethel Waters to sing in the 1933 Broadway revue "As Thousands Cheer".
Listening and watching this on 14/05/24 Israel’s 76th Independence Day is cathartic on this more than sombre occasion due to the atrocity inflicted upon us on 7/10/23 by a marauding heinous entity called Hamas. A Jew who went by the name of Irving Berlin having escaped with his family similar outrage in another land brought happiness and joy to a nation through his genius talent of words and music. May “Blue Skies” prevail through these very dark days.
I never put it together just what a great singer Carol Burnett is! She keeps up with the BEST of them ❤❤❤
You should see one of the specials she did with Julie Andrews. She holds her own up against THAT voice very well. 💕🎶
And Beverly Sills. Watch Carol's rendition of Send in the Clowns on her show (my favorite tv show of all time) in a sketch. I defy anyone else to sing it better - including my beloved Barbra.
I was always wondering why Sammy had never had them on the 60th anniversary show. They were in the audience. Stevie Wonders sings I've got to me. When Steve recorded it and Sammy made it a hit.
There were a lot of people in the audience who you would think should have been on stage. I wondered about I've Got to Be Me, too. It must have been pretty hard to stand in front of a friend and sing when he couldn't sing anymore. Maybe Steve just couldn't do it
@@sammydavisvideovault8302 Agree. Thats sounds exactly like Steve. Thank you for that.
This was on TV August 1978
Anymore please such as Sammy Davis jr grand marshal Hollywood Christmas parade his Macy’s parade appearances
We can all thank UA-cam for keeping these classic songs alive. This era will never come back for the younger generation is simply not interested in this genre. Let's hear it for Irving, Cole, Lerner, Lowe, Harry Warren, Roger's and Hart etc.
I think Carol Burnett would have been fantastic in a revival of Annie Get Your Gun.
10:18 wow. she held that note for so long😅
POWERHOUSE talents, gone but never forgotten!
Do you happen to have the full “duet” of Steve Lawrence doing “White Christmas” with Bing Crosby?
No, Sorry
That's the rule for Carol Burnett. When making a formal appearance, don't do it without Bob Mackie and his costumes.
I know it's Steve and Eydie's but it feels like it's her show and they're all her guests. lol

Also, besides things of entertainment, we went through class and racial discrimination, fight for civil liberties…
Do you any more with Steve and Eydie and Sammy?
I don't think so. Some other folks have Sammy singing with Eydie on Sammy & Company, Joe Wellington has Steve & Sammy singing the Not Even Nominated medley during the 1979 awards.
@@sammydavisvideovault8302 Thanks. I know Steve and Eydie loved Sammy. Eydie took Sammy death really hard.
The very bes
carole burnett is a special guest star with Sammy Davis Jr sitting there?
No
