I remember this episode of Ed's when I was 15 years old and I fell in love with both Ella and Sammy. I've seen them both live, Sammy on Broadway and Ella at Dangerfield's in NYC. I miss this kind of talent. These kids today can't touch this. Rap is all they know and everybody sounds the same.
When Sammy added that "Yeeeeeeeeeessss!!!" at the end of the tune, the audience applause had swelled to a higher degree of satisfactory approval! 👏👏👏👌👍 FYI: That wonderful ending was a big surprise out of the blue for the audience and people at home watching, & Sammy had never rehearsed that part of the tune! There you have it! DY-NO-MIIIIIIITE!!!
This aired Feb. 2, 1964--a week before The Beatles' first Sullivan appearance. But I consider this one of the finest and most signifiant moments in the show's 23-year run.

Loved this ICONIC DUET! Saw it on "Ed Sullivan Special." Thanks for posting. He really admired her & wanted to perform with her! Seemed like both were so overwhelmed.
2/2/64: What many people considered to be the greatest moment on the Ed Sullivan show up to that time. However, "that time" only lasted a week. For on the very next show......
@@michaelwoodward9894 no I doubt it , Sammy paid his dues defining his craft and talent , it was a much different experience and time back then and will never be duplicated again . Just like the movie studio system of the past.
Sammy Davis, jr. An all-time great performer. He is sitting there admiring Ella. And he is looking at her like "How in the heck does she do that"? When you can make soneone as great as Sammy look at you like that....I mean wow.
Samuel George «Sammy» Davis Jr. (Harlem, 8 de diciembre de 1925-Beverly Hills, 16 de mayo de 1990) fue un cantante, músico multinstrumentista (vibráfono, trompeta, trombón y batería), bailarín, actor y comediante estadounidense. Fue parte del Rat Pack, que dentro de sus miembros contaba con Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Peter Lawford y Joey Bishop.
Ella Jane Fitzgerald (Newport News, Virginia, 25 de abril de 1917-Beverly Hills, 15 de junio de 1996), apodada Lady Ella, la reina del jazz y la Primera dama de la canción, fue una cantante estadounidense de jazz. A pesar de una condición básica como jazzista, el repertorio musical de Ella Fitzgerald es mucho más amplio e incluye swing, blues, bossa nova, samba, góspel, calypso, canciones navideñas, pop, etc.
Two of the greatest icons of American music: Sammy and Ella! Oh how I wish they had more performances together. 🥰
Watching and listening to this just lifts my spirit. Ella and Sammy - what a delight.
It is a wonderful thrill to experience this clip. Sammy is terrific, Ella is sublime.
Love that Sammy seemed so genuinely thrilled to perform with Ella!! I love these two, who were performed when there was real talent!!
instablaster.
Cause he simply singing with the best Singer ever born on this planet called earth, anyone Will be thrilled too
Ella stating that Sammy Davis Jr. was "T-A-L-E-N-T" at the beginning of this video really says something about how incredible Sammy truly was.

This must be one of the ten best jams live in tv ever

If not for the DECADES CHANNEL bringing the Ed Sullivan show back on television, I wouldn't have seen this great performance.

Ed Was A Visionary. He could see the future, IMO. You can tell by his comments
Sublime. Appreciation Ed's heartfelt acknowledgement at the end.
That's wonderfully done by great ones
February 2, 1964: The Beatles appeared on Ed Sullivan the next week. This performance is truly classic.
This cut Sammys verse before they started scatting though. He was so excited when he got the idea that they’d both scat 8 bars each.
What a classy duo!!! Love them!!

WOW
NOTE: Listen to "Basella" with Count Basie and Ella Fitzgerald and also Ella's rendition of "What's Going On," Marvin Gaye's classic. AWESOME!!!!
Ella....instantly recognisable voice.....she always came across as being a bit shy ....one of the truly great singing voices.
I can now die happy !
It would have been better had the unedited version was used as apposed to the clip from Sammy's documentary.
HEAVEN!!!
When entertainers had real talent
Dang😭😮💨❤️🥰

Was that Richard Nixon in the beginning?
Of course it was ……. Or maybe Someone else
