I love Carol, she was an unusual and amazing lady

Neither could really sing but they both. Communicate with their entire body face arms , and spirit to entertain. Pearl and her ready smart Alec ruined the song it te green apples, rushing through some of the words- after all , It’s all aboutPearl. Pearl loves herself more than any other human on the planet. Carol plays a gay man in drag. Both highly entertaining with just a scratch of real talent. Streisand just stands there and her true talent overwhelms you. Judy Garland aimed to please plus the talent , it was almost too much to witness but all of us did . Pearl and Carol will be forgotten in one hundred years but Barbra and Judy will never be forgotten

They were the greats!

A friend was in final 3 up for Cornelius in Channing’s last Dolly on Broadway. He was 6’4” flat foot and they cut him because of his height. Miss Channing ran and caught him at the door. wrapped her arms around his waist (as far as she could get) and said “You’re fantastic my dear, but you’re just too TAWLL” He floated home. 2 days later he was called in to audition for a scheduled revival of Guys and Dolls. The director hired him and said that “Carol was right,,,tall as a redwood and voice like Howard Keel.” Rick danced all the way back to Brooklyn.

I always loved the way Pearl Bailey would phrase completely without regard to the meter of the band and yet always ease right back into the rhythm to finish the phrase in perfect time. That’s Jazz.

I saw Pearl perform in a NYC night club around 1980. A great opportunity!❤❤❤ I saw Carol perform in HELLO DOLLY in her last tour on Broadway. When she walked on stage for her entrance to the restaurant, she looked at the audience with those big eyes, as if she was saying, "Now you applaud!" Of course it became a standing audience of love.❤❤❤

They don’t make them like this anymore.

What a pleasure to see and listen these two wonderful ladies 😍😍😍

Yeagh but I have a cush on ,Carol. She's so lovely and sweet!

Back when famous women looked beautifully unique, their personalities just beam from them. They're dressed beautifully, elegantly, and they are enjoying each other and the crowd so much.

Love them both so much

What an absolute treat 🥰🥰🥰🌺🙏🏽

Class, sass and brass. They had it all. These are the type of shows that you just won't experience on today's stages. However, it is shows like this that set the pace great shows, comics and more. They sang, danced and gave their audience a real show without stripping and gyrating. The costumes are gorgeous. They worked so well together. I enjoyed EVERY moment and hated to see it end. Thank you for posting this marvelous Broadway production.

Loved these ladies! Talented and beautiful. They lived through and dealt with some hard times but you never heard scandals of either one.

Thanks to Jerry Herman and all of Jerry's Girls, Dolly will NEVER go Away! 🌹 💐

True talent!

Two amazingly talented and professional performers who don’t miss a beat. Such quality and show-woman-ship of a past bye era.

The talent of Black Women on display

This my first time seeing this lady and i love this lady

She remind me of the lady on girls trip I can think of her name

Pearl sexy

Carol and Pearl together positively Brilliant

These 2 beautiful talented ladies brings me to a happy place!!

16:44 timestamp for myself so I can listen to that gorgeous Bb2.

Sometimes I forget how old Queen Latifah really is

Great to hear Pearl's husband Louis Bellson playing drums with the orchestra and sounds like his arrangements too. Thanks for the upload ❤

Wow! What a pair of ladies!

Chills. What talent!

I’ll bet conductors had their hands full trying to keep the orchestra in time with carol… she always seems like she’s singing it slow and yet, she’s right in the pocket…

Pearls voice is like velvet with a shot of whiskey… soft, soothing and a touch of heat…love her timing too…!!

A couple of years ago while updating my family tree using Ancestry, I discovered Pearl Bailey was distant relative of mine.

They were magnificent

Pearl walking was so graceful on wives and lovers

Astounding! Carol Channing was the first-ever Dolly in the 1960's run of "Hello, Dolly!" and Pearl Bailey was one of the last (Ethel Merman closed the multi-year run.) The notion of putting Channing and Bailey together was inspired. There could not be two more dissimilar performers, and yet - they each have a sense of tremendous humor, ebullience, and freedom as performers. They complement each other beautifully. Some people have carped, online, about the fact that this concert-for-television was rough around the edges, but --- with two stars who are not afraid to be silly, that "looseness" (with costume malfunctions and occasional uncertainty about blocking) only adds to the buoyant sense of fun. I wouldn't change a moment of this priceless concert. It's marvelous. I must add that I sat in the audience for a 1978 revival of "Hello, Dolly!" starring Channing and Eddie Bracken, in New York, in 1978 -- and some eight years later, at Ruth Eckerd Hall in Clearwater, Florida, I saw Pearl Bailey in concert with her drummer husband, Louie Bellson, and orchestra. I am so pleased to have seen two great female stars, in person, who were larger than life. Oh, the energy and joy that each of them radiated! Would that it could have been bottled and sold.

There will never be another one like these two, ever, they were Americas great.

So these caterpillar like lashes chicks be wearing is not new? They both got them flappers on they eyes

I wonder if Pearl knew she was black 😩😂

Good night that fine Pearl looks like she can be the mother of Queen Latifa!!!

This reminded me of my grandmother. I know these great entertainers and many more because of her. She was big on live music and going to see entertainers like Cab Calloway and Duke Ellington before I was even born.

Oh wow. Its carol channing and queen latifah

2 black women on stage.

Wow!!! Beautiful

I absolutely loved this!!! This country needs more entertainers EXACTLY LIKE THIS!! NOT THE EVIL SMUTT we’ve had for for the past 30 years 💕🙏🙏

Those ladies really put the FAB in FABULOUS! Thank you for uploading this!

Carol tanning 😂

Notice how Carol keeps coming into a musical phrase late or finishing it late. She is always a beat slower than the music, dragging it back a little. That is 100% intentional. Carol said if you keep the band and the audience waiting for you , they listen harder, anticipating for your entrance and wondering when you will arrive. That means you have them paying attention. Every time I hear Carol sing one her standards, she decides her own pacing, not the band.

2 black Dolly Levis…

Both are supreme at what they did, but whoever choose that horrible green frock for lovely Pearl, shoud have been fired

This was so amazing! ❤‍🔥💝💘Brought back a gazillion memories for me and my childhood. All the people from that time who enjoyed these talents with me are all gone. I'm not crying YOU're crying 😢
