@@tomkelly4336 they all died too soon, along with Elvis. they were definitely on the list. i know. interviewed Peggy and Sarah. separately, of course, and both sublime singers.
Goodman is almost in tears toward the end - I feel he's remembering the first recording, done with a very young Peggy Lee a few weeks after Pearl Harbor was bombed and the U.S. entered the war.
Yes - restraint in music creates a space of partial silence that pulls you in - to an interior space. It's a lost value in modern performance, especially in singers.
MISS PEGGY LEE/ Absolutely gorgeous innovative woman with her loving unique style and Timeless talent and approach! XOX (Rest in Peace pretty lady) 3 thumbs up Lionel; o and you to Benny
so wonderful, so spare, so heartfelt, and so very, very glamorous as you sang the perfect song for this occasion. one of the highlights of your singing career. it proved Benny Goodman was right to have the faith he had in you.
NOW, THIS IS REALLY GREAT MUSIC. LIONEL REALLY SWINGS WHEN HE PLAYS THOSE VIBES. ONE OF THE GREATEST PRESIDENTS OF AMERICA IS IN THE AUDIENCE WITH HIS BEAUTIFUL FIRST LADY. I LOVED THIS TIME IN AMERICA! GREAT MUSIC, GREAT PRESIDENT AND MY LIFE WAS FULL OF HAPPINESS JUST KNOWING ALL WAS RIGHT WITH THE WORLD. AND, AS ALWAYS, GOD WAS ON HIS THRONE! SYLVIA!
Peggy Lee was so seductive when she sang. Her clothes fit her perfectly and no one had her color hair. You just couldn't take your eyes off of her. She had a most unusual voice. I always loved her. SYLVIA!
Daniel Weinstein, true. So genuine and sincere. Do you imagine any pop stars of today making such a HUMBLE and TRUE statement like this on such a big night and occasion? Nope!
Breaks my heart that Miss Peggy Lee was never selected for the Kennedy Center Honors.
Neither Mel Torme or Sarah Vaughan were selected either.
Right, what an injustice!!!
And then I asked myself - Is that all there is to a medal?
@@brucekuehn4031 Yes!! I met Peggy Lee a couple times and she probably thought just that. Hehe

The delight on Benny's face when he sees Lionel Hampton dance onto the stage...
I keep coming back to this clip just to hear "Where or When".
Hamp walks onto the stage and sets everything on fire!
Goodman is almost in tears toward the end - I feel he's remembering the first recording, done with a very young Peggy Lee a few weeks after Pearl Harbor was bombed and the U.S. entered the war.
What a wonderful era! Bravo to the magnificent Peggy Lee!
I so miss Miss Peggy Lee
They should have given Peggy s standing ovation. So under appreciated. Their is great emotional power in restraint.
Miss Wonderful Peggy Lee.R I P

SHE HAD THAT MAGIC ABILITY TO MAKE THE FAN LISTEN TO THE LYRICS...LIKE SINATRA, CLOONEY, ETC...A REAL ARTIST...MISS HER.....
She had a sexy voice. I don’t believe anyone else has had one like hers before her or since.
YOU HAVE FORGOTTEN JULIE LONDON. SHE, TOO, WAS A SEXY SINGER AND A BEAUTIFUL WOMAN. SYLVIA! 4.24.21
Such dignity for the arts, such consideration for all their efforts bless them all for the care of our spirit, hopes and desires

I wish they would teach kids in school about these incredible composers. This is Benny Goodman!!!!
American MASTERS .....this is what America gave to the world. JAZZ both the music, the style and the culture. HIP
How do you not have a big grin at Mr. Hampton's joie de vivre and big tug at your heartstrings at Miss Lee's delicate rendition?
In awe. They do not make them like this anymore
What a music. ♥️it.
you can hear a pin drop when she sings. total focus on her and her music.
God I miss these wonderful times.
I see class, dignity, style and Judy amazing polish and musicianship.
Makes me happy and sad at the same time
THE ONE THE ONLY, THE IMMORTAL MISS PEGGY LEE
Fantastic entertainers. Great music. You don’t see them like these anymore .
Beautiful in 1941 and beautiful and sexy 41 years later.
Excellent,Thank you

Touching...
Marvellous musical talents.
Gosh, I wish I could meet Benny Goodman.
Back when America was America.

Peggy brought tears.

Чудовий, і улюблений музикант, великий маестро, народився в Україні, в місті Біла Церква! Алілуйя!
Milt Hinton on bass
The energy and joy of Milt Hinton!
WOW!
У 60-х роках, Бенні Гудман, відвідав свою батьківщину, Україну, місто Кихв, а також рідне місто Біла Церква!
E sempre um prazer escutar Peggy Ler
An old Dizzy tune. ❤
Is the tribute to Lillian Gish at the same event not posted for some reason? I would LOVE to see that!
Que maravilha! Congratulation!
where's the clarinet
Sitting, listening and enyoing the concert
YEP
Is Ronald Reagan was there ?!?
Both he and Nancy were there ... jump to 7:32 in the clip.
Sad to see the rest of Peggy Lee´s own face after a lot of plastic surgerys. Why the hell so many people can´t accept natural signs of aging???
