    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.

    Sublime. I'm a crusty old Englishman, not known for effusive emotional display, but this brought a tear to my eye. A master at the very peak of his profession, giving an excerpt from a truly wonderful movie. Thank you for this memory.

      I remember watching this as well! It was a few years after the original airing and it was in syndication late at night. And I also remember how I was struck by his performance!
      It wasn't until my mid thirties that I began to really appreciate his phenomenal talent.

      A song???
      He memorized *the entire script* (his part of it anyway) including *several* songs. 🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵
      (I'm only saying.)
      And by the way.
      His portion of the script was probably around half the script.
      (Or maybe only a third. But still, a lot anyway.)

  • @123abcdef3
    @123abcdef3 Рік тому +13

    I enjoy both versions of this song with Richard Burton and Richard Harris. Richard Burton had an hypnotic gaze and could convey a sense of melancholy when he sang Camelot. Richard Harris had that glint in his eye and conveyed a sense of mystery and hint of mischief when he sang it.

  • @MrRichiekaye

    Might for right, right for might and justice for all! Those words still ring true at least in some of our heart. Camelot is still my favorite movie, every since I first saw it when I was only 12. It's too bad we live in a world without leaders like Arthur and a place like Camelot and brave knights who use might for right!
