    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.

    The song is adapted from the mezzosoprano aria, "Mon coeur s'ouvre à ta voix". Interestingly, Wilson hits (and leaves far behind) a note, near the end that Elīna Garanča doesn't attempt when the sings it. People ask why we have no popular singers like Wilson today. It's because they are so extraordinary. We were lucky to have had him.

    Performed 58 years ago , and Jackie's performances are consistently getting more views than most other videos on this channel.....and deservedly so .
    Truly the most gifted and talented recording artist / performer in the rock and roll and rhythm and blues area that ever lived .
    Now if this channel would post Jackie Wilson's performance of " THE GREATEST HURT " and also his performance of ""HEARTS" from this Ed Sullivan Show ; I have no doubt they would each get 50,000 views within the first week ......I'm looking forward to it .

    This is absolutely incredible! Another one of my favorite singers! First Mary Hopkin, then Teresa Brewer and now Jackie Wilson (and yesterday, Connie Francis)! I have absolutely loved everything you have uploaded today; this is one of the best channels on UA-cam! :) Jackie had a phenomenal voice. "Night" was actually his highest charting single on the Billboard Hot 100 going all the way up to #4 in 1960 (it also charted #3 on the R&B chart) and it is one of my favorites. The melody comes from the Saint-Saens aria "My Heart at thy Sweet Voice", one of the most beautiful melodies ever composed. Thank you so much for this fantastic video!

Some fans are going to prefer Doggin’ Around, others will prefer Night. Both songs showcase his raw skill and talent. Can’t say that about many performers, then or now.

      Jackie sounded better live than the studio. You can't judge from this performance which was "rushed' in order to fill the time schedule.
      I saw Jackie perform approximately 150 times, and NO ONE has ever come close to him...I was there when Elvis first saw Jackie in 1966 at the "Trip" in Hollywood, and he went totally crazy watching him...he told Jackie, "There is no reason why you're not the #1 singer in the world."

      @@CDR807 Elvis was perfuming in Las Vegas in 1956 and went to see' Billy Ward & The Dominos'. On the recording of The Million Dollar Quartet...had Elvis, Roy Orbison, Johnny Cash and Jerry Lee Lewis on the LP cover...Elvis is heard saying that one of The Dominos performed some his songs better than him, however he did not mention, the name of the one who sang them, he only referred to "Mr. Ward's Dominos" .
      Billy Ward told me that it was not Jackie that sang the "Elvis" songs, though he could not remember at that moment who did, but was very certain that it was not Jackie.. Remember that this was 1956, that is also the year Jackie left the Dominos to pursue a solo career. Jackie had never met Elvis until 1966 at "The Trip" nightclub in Hollywood,Ca. where Jackie was performing. Jackie told me Elvis said to him, "It's about time the White Elvis met the Black Elvis". I also have a tape of Jackie being interviewed in the UK that they had never met until "The Trip". There are so many false "Jackie-Elvis" stories on the internet and they keep being reposted that they've become the "new facts". One-story goes that jackie was on the set of Elvis' movie "Girl, Girl,Girls", and was even sitting in a nightclub scenic in the movie. That movie was made in 1962, FOUR YEARS BEFORE they met, but you will find that "fact" all over the internet.
      As to "The Million Dollar Quarter" album which features images of the four artists mentioned, including Johnny Cash...Johnny is not even on the album, he had left the studio before they started taping the conversation.
