    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.

    Who would have thought that these men from Newcastle, England would have made the impact that they did. As a 15 year old guitar player, our band, The Beau Street Runners, Franconia, Virginia, played every song of the Animals that we could given our ability at the time. And the bass player, Chas Chandler would, little did he know, discover and bring Jimi Hendrix to England September 1966 and the rest is musical history.

    Another amazing performance. This is pure, raw talent, at its finest. What you see is what you get. There is no autotune, no lyp syncing, with Eric Burdon's powerful vocal delivery and genuine musicianship, from the entire band. Eric Burdon and the Animals made incredible music. May Chas Chandler and Hilton Valentine rest in peace. Cheers! ✌️

    most likely organist Dave Rowberry's initial gig on American television. i always liked him more than Alan Price. I saw them a year after this show opening for Herman's Hermits and by that time drummer John Steele had left and Barry jenkins took over the drum stool. Right here was their best lineup.

    Also list their cover of John Lee Hooker's 'Boom Boom'. This Ed Sullivan Show performance of 'Bright Lights, Big City' was what this original band was all about(Alan Price had left the band on organ and replaced by Dave Rowberry) This was still a great Animals line-up, but after Chas Chandler left and found Hendrix and produced and managed him, the Animals started to loose some of the magic that wore off, but it was Burton's amazing vocals that top their sound. Most people take the Beatles and the Stones, I take the Animals and the Yardbirds. The Animals fifth album Animalism from 1966, a very underestimated album indeed. From songs from Sammy Cooke and B.B. King to Muddy Waters and Howlin' Wolf(don't know which version of Smokestack Lightin' I like better, this one by the Animals or the Yardbirds version from '63 with Clapton) and a song by Donovan, Hey Gyp great little song and two new songs written by Frank Zappa, an album not to be passed by on. Those were great days of music from great bands. 🎸🎤🎸🥁🎹

    This was from May 1965, the same month original keyboardist Alan Price left the Animals. You can see his replacement in this clip, the late Dave Rowberry. Alan quit on the 5th, this clip aired on the 30th.

    • @EarlHutton2030
      @EarlHutton2030 6 місяців тому

      Alan Price didn't screw his band mates over the "House of the Rising Sun" royalties, their manager Michael Jeffrey did. The naive Animals went along with it, hoping that I'll be fixed later, but within the passage of time, unfortunately, Alan truly began to believe his own solo credit on that recording.

      Yes, replaced by Dave Rowberry in early May 1965. This was most likely Dave's television debut with the Animals.

      @CloverTheBunnyABDL 6 місяців тому

      @baldey67 Haha! I have no sense of music history?! Playing music is what I do for a living! Oldies and Blues are, in particular, my favorites. I also teach kids about Blues through a program called Blues In The Schools Program. Let me give you a history lesson since I have no sense of music history.
      This song, "Bright Lights, Big City," was originally recorded by the Blues artist Jimmy Reed in 1961. In 1965, it was released by the group the Animals. Blues had a major impact on the creation and development of Rock and Roll. A lot of the English groups who became part of the British invasion started out as either Blues bands or had been influenced strongly by the Blues. A lot of Bristish Rock bands such as the Rolling Stones were avid Blues fans.
      Now, let's get back to my comment. My comment was strictly from an opinion point of view. It wasn't from the view of historic significance. So before you tell me I have no sense of music history, think twice.

    • @EarlHutton2030
      @EarlHutton2030 6 місяців тому +1

      The Animals' version is ace, I'd say. They did a version of it for their second American album The Animals on Tour, later released a few months later on their second British LP Animal Tracks.
