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.

In reading recently about Handy, I wondered if any film footage existed & now I can see there is. This truly is a priceless artifact!
I'm not an American but this performance should be preserved as a national treasury or something, i can tell you.
Wow! A giant of American blues music, performing his own signature composition.
So glad to see this piece of AMERICAN HISTORY IN THE FLESH. Thank you you tube.
You would think as someone from St Louis, whom grew up watching the hockey Blues and listening to blues, and while having heard this song before every home hockey game, I never new this song was called St Louis Blues lol. It’s funny when you discover the true meaning behind things that you take for granted.
This is my great great great uncle
The father of American music, playing his most famous composition. Of course, Louis Armstrong would make this classic his own with Handy's full blessing a few years later.
My hat is off to you W.C. Handy... play me some of those "St. Louis Blues!" 🎩 Thank you for sharing! 💖
A glaucoma patient
Louis Amstrong's Blues is eternal, beautiful and unforgettable!
He is from Florence, Alabama. They have an annual WC Handy music festival in the summer. It’s very popular!!
This makes me proud to be an American❤️
I agree. Was pleasantly surprised to see a bronze statue in his honor at a plaza in Memphis, when I was there for a Bob Dylan concert..
Like someone else said here, this performance should be preserved in a national archive.
@@carmenfernandez5234 yes indeed!! Thank goodness for the RUclips archive central anyways💥
I'm Not American And That Makes Me Feel One.
Heartwarming ❤️
Legend!!
Sweet music by a great musician and I wonder how much it will take for the young people to sit back and enjoy their heroes in music, this man loves music and loves the poor folks that make it best!!!!
This is beautiful!
Not real obvious in this clip, but W.C. Handy was blind at this point in his life (76 years), sustained in a 1943 fall.
It looks like Ed and the backstage crew handled it well.
Legendary
Wonderful!
Wow! God bless America!
