    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.

    This has got to be one of the best songs to come out of the late 1950s. I’ve never actually seen the original group preform it on video. This is going to be awesome.

      It probably is the best late 50s song. I mean it’s good enough for modern kids to give up listening to rap music for a few minutes just to listen to this.

    I'm the guitar player on the right. We worked in Canada the night before. After flying to N.Y. and checking in to a hotel it was a mad dash to the studio for rehearsal and then the show. Needless to say we were quite wore out. ( I really enjoyed the experience) I didn't know this video was still around. This was performed 'live' and you'll notice the sound wasn't too good.

      We used a part of the track in a school play back in 1986, and ever since I've been looking for the track. What a surprise to find not only the track but one of the guitarists in the band which played the song! Wow!

    Two great instrumental hits came out in 58, this one and RUMBLE by Link Wray. The later Champs featured such alumni as Glen Campbell, Jim Seals and Dash Crofts of Seals and Crofts fame.. But this the original with guitarist Dave Burgess and sax man Chuck Flores. Gene Autrey who owned the label Challenge named them after his horse Champ.

    One of the biggest instrumental records of all time, and a number one hit in 1958. Written by Chuck Rio (as Daniel Flores). I hope you may also post Kathy Linden singing "Billy" on this episode, which was also a Top 10 record on the Billboard chart in 1958. I've never seen any videos of her.
