This episode was largely devoted to the talents of Sammy Davis Jr. and Ella Fitzgerald. After performing several solos, the legends got to sing this legendary duet. A famous moment on the Ed Sullivan show! Thank you for this video!
Excellent visual quality and clarity on the image. Thank you for the upload and it's appreciated having these wonderful pieces watchable in a higher resolution. And many thanks for the wonderful showcase of the greatest talents to grace the stage from the 20th century.
Great performance Ella and Sammy together…thanks for sharing…at least the audience let you hear them perform unlike the following week…😂! Have a great day!
I've watched this performance on RUclips so many times. It's one of my all-time favorite videos. 💜💜💜 And now that you've posted it, I'll watch it several more times! 😊
The First Lady of Jazz and Mr. Cool Cat. Over the years we have enjoyed may great singers and songstress, Eli immho, is one of the few who could do it all: sing, sang, story telling, phrasing, scat, and blow! She is one maybe 2 or 3 that I would say could be the "GOAT". She is the first "Diva"!
I remember this, she was one of the best. She struggled with her weight for some reason. Sammy was such a cool guy he could do anything! Class acts I miss them 🥁
Ella Fitzgerald, probably the best singer of all time along with the great Sammy Davis, were both brilliant musicians, they could make any song swing, they could make a duck swing and quake at the same time by just listen to those 2 great people sing
It brought joyful tears to my eyes to watch how much Ella Fitzgerald was enjoying herself. There was so much heart and delight in this performance. For me, it’s a blessing to behold -- one of those performances along with Sammy Davis, Jr's performance of Mr Bojangles -- that is seared in my soul.

A delight!! You have to be very brave to dare to challenge the great queen of scat... but I think that our daring little great Sammy comes out alive from the attempt... This performance spreads good vibes!
✨🌟🥇👑🏆👑🥇🌟✨It’s Wonderful it’s Marvelous that Ella Fitzgerald and Sammy Davis Jr are sing 🎵 🎤🎶🎹together like two cool cats on a hot tin roof 🤩Yeh that’s Jazz Man ✨🌟💖👍
What….wait…..! He called her Ms. First Lady. ‘’Mr. Sammy Davis” 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾😎 Not treating another Professional Singer in Public Causal that’s Pure, Professionalism even at their age’s WOW!👏🏾❤️💪🏾😎💯! Even better both dressed Neck to Ankle That’s Easy to noticed they strictly have *Voice’s ,& Talent’s, on * Displaying Decency Should have never Been Compromised!!!
I'm so glad Marilyn Monroe helped Ella Fitzgerald get her start in the big-time clubs. Imagine being able to go to those clubs in those days. I hope Ella got to really show her appreciation to Marilyn before she passed away.
Undeniable talent and passion for what he loved would be part of the reason. Pound for pound that man was one of the most talented performers to ever plant his feet on a stage.
Sullivan was the most "unracist" person on TV at the time. He always had Black (African American) acts on his show despite the fact that he was told there would be problems with broadcasters in the South..

Man I need that full episode
Facts
Legendary!! That is what both Sammy Davis, Jr and Ella Fitzgerald was and always will be!!
Echoed sentiment
Ella Fitzgerald is still one of my all-time faves! Her voice is so rich, full, and glorious!
Ed singing! 😄 That was cute! I've loved Sammy since I was little, and Ella's is a gift from the heavens! Great duet! 😊💜
Indeed! I didn't expect Ed to sing as well.
@@lonestarfriendThey clearly inspired him with that wonderful performance
Wow! Talk about 2 of the greats! Sammy & Ella. 😳

This performance was so wonderful .
One of the best performances on the Ed Sullivan show
高校生の頃にテレビでみたこの映像に一瞬にして心を奪われました。
今みても褪せることなく私に感動を与えてくれます。エドサリバン
エラ、サミーデイビスJr.にとびきりの感謝を！
The love and admiration in his face when watching her sing was priceless!
Marvelous! Wonderful!!

I'm not a big fan of scattin, but this entire clip was just magical... including Ed singing!
I love scattin! This song is one of the best! I wish more folks would bring it back.
I remember this, she was one of the best. She struggled with her weight for some reason. Sammy was such a cool guy he could do anything! Class acts I miss them 🥁
200% on Perfection "It's WONDERFUL and it is still MARVELOUS"👌👍✌️
Thanks for this absolutely GREAT Upload!
One week later was The Beatles first Ed Sullivan appearance. 2/9/64
Two of the greatest performers/voices ever! What a gift!🥰
Absolute perfection ❤!
Ella Fitzgerald, probably the best singer of all time along with the great Sammy Davis, were both brilliant musicians, they could make any song swing, they could make a duck swing and quake at the same time by just listen to those 2 great people sing
Soooooo great to see these marvelous people together
They were soo sweet.
So many good stars...
Little jazz- Roy Eldridge on trumpet!! Brilliant clip
A TRUE CLASSIC FOR THE AGES!!!

A week later this show would change America forever.
What a fabulous treat this is!
Wonderful artists. What a show. This was fantastic. The next show, Ed introduced America to The Beatles.
Oh, I've been waiting on this!
I love it. This is wonderful. Now that's music!
2 GREAT ENTERTAINERS THEY DONT MAKE EM LIKE THIS ANYMORE❤
It's marvelous Ella Fitzgerald.
Roy Eldridge (tp)
Tommy Flanagan (p)
Bill Yancey (b)
Gus Johnson (ds)
Sammy had the same look watching ella sing at his 60th celebration.he is mesmerized by her voice.
The Good Old Days I Was 3 Years Old When I First Seen This Show On CBS
That's what I call talent....
Amazingly beautiful....love it!
Grandioso esto demuestra qué el talento y el arte no tienen idioma, nacionalidad, ni raza. Grandes cantantes.
Two giants of this or any era, period!!!
This isn't the whole clip. The whole clip really knocks it out of the park. Copyright laws probably account for the shortened version.
❤❤ Absolutely fabulous 🎤 🎤 🎶 🎶 😊

So awesome. Singers in that era had so much talent & creativity.
Miss Ella is simply marvelous.
👍legends
Ahh, “Lady Ella,” & Sammy!!!
😍🙏🏽 🎼 🎤🫰
What a treat to hear these two legends.
Speaking in the tongues of "JAZ'ER'IOUS",😉😁👏👏👏💐👍🌷👋✝️☝️
Ella had a beautiful voice....decades long gone....
A delight!! You have to be very brave to dare to challenge the great queen of scat... but I think that our daring little great Sammy comes out alive from the attempt... This performance spreads good vibes!
agreed. Sammy gave 'crooners' a bad name! (and didn't return until the 90s).
I love both more and more each day. They're wonderful
What about that ! s'wonderful..... Ed on time and pitch ! Wow.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
"Maravillosos recuerdos que siempre estarán presentes....Gracias y Saludos
✨🌟🥇👑🏆👑🥇🌟✨It’s Wonderful it’s Marvelous that Ella Fitzgerald and Sammy Davis Jr are sing 🎵 🎤🎶🎹together like two cool cats on a hot tin roof 🤩Yeh that’s Jazz Man ✨🌟💖👍
There's one good singer in this duet.....well done Ella. The second best singer on the stage was Ed.
OUTSTANDING
Fantastisk and wonderful 😊❤
What a marvellous toe tapping body swinging rendition. Love them lots.❤❤❤
WOW!
👍
Don’t leave out the Great George Gershwin! Makes me proud to be an American!!! (PS the glamorous/ amorphous rhyme knocks me out!! Ira?)
Real talent unlike some of the jokes of the current day.
That was a great duet! Does anyone know whether that's Tommy Flanagan on the piano. He's my favorite jazz pianist!
Before my time but fantastic
What….wait…..! He called her Ms. First Lady.
‘’Mr. Sammy Davis”
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾😎
Not treating another Professional Singer in Public Causal that’s Pure, Professionalism even at their age’s WOW!👏🏾❤️💪🏾😎💯!
Even better both dressed Neck to Ankle

I'm so glad Marilyn Monroe helped Ella Fitzgerald get her start in the big-time clubs. Imagine being able to go to those clubs in those days. I hope Ella got to really show her appreciation to Marilyn before she passed away.
Just a week later, a minor British group, named after insects, would appear on this very same show, on that very same stage!
The Sunday before The Beatles appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show.
Amazing how a short scrawny funny-looking guy like Sammy Davis made it big time. Good for him! He's a ball of energy.
Undeniable talent and passion for what he loved would be part of the reason. Pound for pound that man was one of the most talented performers to ever plant his feet on a stage.
I believe that was Count Basie on the piano
I'm afraid not, he was Tommy Flanagan...
The following week, the Beatles appeared.
When Ella got low she got high!
Sullivan was the most "unracist" person on TV at the time.
He always had Black (African American) acts on his show despite the fact that he was told there would be problems with broadcasters in the South..
He and Dick Clark...Wonderful Broadcasters !!
I`m speechsless.
You had to really know your stuff to do that
