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.

Something special about these classic Globetrotters that makes me happy. Thank you Meadowlark and Curly for the fun times you’ve given us.
They do!
I never saw their older warm ups. My mom suggested this video and it’s joyful.
"Meadowlark" Lemon-36 and "Curly" Neal-22 were the stars of this group.
They might’ve been the “stars” of the Globetrotters but there’s a whole future NBA Hall of Famer on that stage with them. 😉
I'm a simple lad: I see Harlem Globetrotters, I click
You must be THE MOST grouchiest person on the planet if this does not make you smile!
That even brought a smile to Mr. Stone Face Ed Sullivan.
😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁💖💖💖
Like a well oiled machine. So much coordination and talent.
These guys are great to see live.
I was about 13 when I watched them fromsitting on the ground next to the field...as they taught the national team of PRC /World Champs!/ why basketball is best when "played". BTW: They won of course...
Never get tired of watching these dudes. CGI couldn't do it better.
My all time favorite was Curley Neal.
In the 70s they would be on the Wide World of Sports with Howard Cosell announcing. Kids went nuts waiting a week to see them when they found out it was going to be on. RIP and thank you, Meadowlark.
Great memories. I remember watching too
Ed Sullivan was awesome about finding and bringing us great talent and entertainment! And not only were the original Globetrotters talented with a ball, but stupendous comedians as well! It's sad that we only have out past to look back on as a wonderful simpler time with pleasant people, as we watch society erode today!
I always love to watch the Harlem Globetrotters as a little kid in the 70s. Yes they clowning around, being silly but yet they were excellent and wonderful basketball players. They had their own cartoon episodes on Saturday morning cartoons with granny and a dog who dressed up in a globetrotters uniform. They were super heroes on their cartoons? Harlem Globetrotters appeared on Scooby doo on 2 episodes. Meadowlark Lemon and Curly are the only 2 guys that I know by name, others I have trouble their names.
Don't forget that Wilt Chamberlain, possibly the greatest basketball player to ever live, first played for the Globetrotters in 58 to 59. Anybody who claims they aren't every bit as skilled at the game as they are at entertainment is telling you a lie.
They were the best!!😁
It’s kinda infuriating to see Connie Hawkins here knowing he should’ve been dominating in the NBA at that time instead of being stuck with the Globetrotters. But the NBA had Connie blackballed behind some bullsh*t. The league eventually settled, paid him a few dollars and let him in the league by 1969 but nothing can make up for all the years he lost having to clown around for pennies while wearing down his knees. R.I.P. Hawk 🙏🏾

Such Talent!!!#
That was great. I remember I saw them about 15 years ago and they were awesome.
They were great.
america gots talent!!
Great showmen all!
The best.
I bought a 📀 DVD on the Harlem Globetrotters, I didn't know that they went back to the 1920s or 1930s. I bought it at the 99 ¢ store. Now they have a girl on their team years ago, I think of them as all men.
Like watching Rembrandt paint.
I love Harlem Globetrotters. Brings back many childhood memories. What happened to the description in the video, somebody's getting lazy, would at least like to know what year it is!
It’s from October 31, 1965.
The best group
Are they still alive? That was back in the day. 😊
Meadow lark Lemon, Curly O'Neal.
They even had a cartoon back in the day.
There was a debate in the day, if the Harlem Globetrotters, and the Milwaukee bucks played who would win...
Well before with the 24 second shot clock , the Globetrotters would have won. They would score 2 pts, then steal the ball and pass it around for 47 minutes.
The Harlem globetrotters already beaten the best team in the world the Minneapolis lakers not once but twice!
Everybody is in the flow state of mind. Not sure what they smoked before the route🤔
THEEE ... Fuzziest of Wuzziest Feelings in my Tum-Tum!!
!What in the Sam Hill does Simon Miller know about Sports Entertainment?
HHHAH!!!
Little known fact: Wilt the Stilt played with them.
Curly Neal was the best man
They invented "situational awareness" but the opposite of it too!
Muito bom ! Quando apareciam as exibições deles , todos paravam para admirar.
I remember Meadowlark being #36. Was that him? I guess he was really young at that point so that's why it didn't look like him initially.
Goddamn, those were the days my friend.. I thought they'd never end.. I checked all the comments and oddly enough NO ONE recognised that the cat wearing a Harlem Globetrotter uniform with the #31, IS THE ONE AND ONLY CONNIE HAWKINS!! That's right, the man himself --- "The Hawk"... Played in both the ABA & the NBA.. World Class player basketball player, and from all accounts a very nice man as well.. Wasn't allowed to play in the NBA for many years because of a "fixing basketball games" scandal that he was accused of being involved in some sort of way.. He may have actually spent some time in prison --- but I believe he was innocent in the entire matter because he never admitted any guilt as to being a knowing and willing participant to the crime.. I'm a little foggy on the details of the case at the moment; but I do remember that none other than David Stern was the head of the NBA's legal team during Connie's lawsuit/petition to gain entry into the NBA.. That's right, THE SAME David Stern who eventually became Commissioner of the NBA (succeeding Larry O'Brien) for what seemed like a tenure that lasted 400 goddamned years!! Ain't that just the loveliest thing in the whole wide world? Fortunately, Connie eventually won his suit against the league, but not before he was forced to forfeit some of the best years of his professional career.. Even still, he became an NBA-All Star and remained an extremely dynamic force for any opposing team to deal with.. Basically unguardable.. Check out his book "Foul", which is something of an expose about the whole "match-fixing" thing that nearly ruined his life.. I don't remember how long he stayed with the Globetrotters, but it wasn't very long.. As an adolescent, I saw him a couple of times when he played for the Phoenix Suns against the Detroit Pistons downtown at Cobo Arena in the late 60's/early 70's.. At that point he was ALREADY a little past his prime; but damn, what a player!! He could palm the ball like Wilt Chamberlain and swoop to the hoop like a giant eagle on the fast break.. If he took off from the free throw line, he could dunk the ball EASILY.. No problem whatsoever.. Kids today think Dr. J, MJ, & Dominique Wilkins were the first to sky-walk from 15, 16 feet away.. Naw, not really.. Truly fascinating to watch him play.. He had a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT presence on the court compared to other players of his generation.. A different kind of energy with incredibly graceful, ballet-type moves.. In general, Connie Hawkins was a finesse player; but his height, length, and natural strength (6' 8" with a wingspan like a 7 footer) allowed him to deal quite efficiently with players who tried to play physical and utilise the "bully-ball approach", hoping to deter his effectiveness.. They had very limited success in doing so.. He was a very dominant and extremely unique player.. Incredible to witness.. David Stern? YUK!! Actually, let's make that DOUBLE YUK!!
Connie didn’t spend any time in prison, he wasn’t even arrested for the gambling thing. He was accused of introducing players to gamblers who fixed games. Connie had no idea the 2 men were gamblers & fixers and he never actually introduced any players to them anyway so he vehemently denied he was an intermediary at first but he was interrogated for nearly 2 weeks while being sequestered in a hotel room with no contact with the outside world. So Connie eventually cracked under the pressure and confessed to being a paid intermediary even though he wasn’t. He falsely confessed in order to get the hell outta there and make the interrogation stop. Connie was then forced to drop out of college and spent the next 8 years in exile from the NBA (he spent nearly 4 years with the Globetrotters, by the way).
Another misconception is that David Stern was the head attorney for the NBA and the guy who fought so hard to keep Connie banned. That’s not exactly true. Yes, David Stern was a lawyer who worked with the law firm who was helping the NBA but the lead attorney who was trying so hard to trip Connie up during the lawsuit was a guy named George Gallantz. If memory serves me right, it was said that David Stern was one of the attorneys pushing Gallantz to settle with Hawkins. I’m not a huge fan of Stern’s but I don’t think he was the villain of this particular story. 🤷🏾♀️
The Hawk was incredible 👌
Before And 1, before Allen Iverson, before Magic Johnson it was Curly, Meadowlark & the Boys
I believe the only one still alive from this group is Hubert "Geese" Ausbie.... everyone else is now gone
I knew a chick who got passed around like that. 😅😅😅
Futurama
im the 600 liker
... two players with number 35?
There were two traveling units of the Globetrotters in those days. An international and a national unit. Hubert "Geese" Ausbie wore #35 for the International team, not sure who the other player was but #31 was Connie Hawkins, #22 Curly Neal and #36 was Meadowlark Lemon. They're all gone now with the exception of Geese Ausbie I believe
Patrick Mahomesboy should be on this video!! LOL.. 😂👎🏻💩
