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.

Wow. I'm only 17 and recognize the historical importance of this! Thank you!
Johnny Horton's songs told stories. And no one did it better.
Back then, they wouldn’t even say hell… Look at what today’s music says!
I wouldn't even go as far as to call it music.
just remember cancel culture tried to get "Baby it's cold outside" banned while at the same time "wet ass pussy" was the number 1 song of the year
@@kcstott I wouldn't even put what you mentioned in the same class as music.
The difference is baby it’s cold outside implies rape. There’s nothing in WAP that’s not consensual.
I noticed that....wish we would turn back time. I can live without the conveniences just to have a moral world
Real traditional American music 🎶... ❤❤❤
Johnny Horton HAS A TON OF CATCHY TUNES AND COULD REALLY BELT IT. He's practically roaring that first chorus. He's so good.
We need to get him into the Country Music, and R&R Hall of Fames.
Let’s face it. One of the greatest songs in history. Every kid from the 50’s 60’s and 70’s sang this song and knows every word!
I love Johnny ! Glad he’s finally getting some recognition he deserves!
Finally! (In 1959)
@@Rhewin never enough attention
The best rarely get much attention.
Oh yes!!!!😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤
Had this 45 rpm record, and it was a song of my childhood
Me, too!
My 45 came with a picture sleeve. Still have it.
My older brother got the album for a Christmas present in 1959. He played it a lot.
Just like Elvis Presley, Buddy Holly, the Big Bopper, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Ritchie Valens, Jim Morrison, Patsy Cline, and so many other great musicians who died way too soon, due to a tragic car accident, Johnny Horton died way too soon! I was born in 1956, so I dearly wish Johnny Horton lived a full lifetime so then I would had a chance to have seen him perform on a concert tour.
Johnny Horton one of the Greatest singers ever.... Gone Way Too Soon.... :(
No kidding 😢
Remember this well wore that 45 out.
This song and sink the bismarck were my 2 favorite songs by Johnny Horton
I loved the greatest hits album as a child - 33 record as a child and a CD when it finally released as an adult. I learned every word to every song!
One of the most important battles in American history
Actually it wasn't, but it's still a great song.
@@60Cascade Old Hickory agrees
Battle of Lexington or Battle of Gettysburg were most important
@@Mark-nx5pkcant agree more (yes im late as hell💀💀)
My seven siblings and I would sing this song on long car trips in the stationwagon in the 60's!
I always loved this song. Neat seeing it performed onstage. The dancers did an excellent job. Thank you for sharing this. God Bless You & stay safe.
My maiden name is Horton. I grew up in Southern Middle Tennessee. I am a descendent of Issac Horton. My grandmother said that a cousin of hers had a voice like Johnny and that some of the Horton family went west when she was growing up. Who knows- may be related.❤ 2:33
That flash powder blanked out the shot!
*_Rest In Peace Johnny_*
*_Job Well Done, Sir_*
Something magical about music in the mid-50s early rock era until about early 64, before the Beatles took over pop music in America. The Beatles were amazing, but man, something about those old records, country, rock, anything, from "Lipstick on Your Collar" Connie Francis, "Til I Kissed You" the Everly Brothers, "White Sport Coat" Marty Robbins.
finally!!! a classic from the 50s. Also, an amazing performance. 50s tv was astonishing. 👏👏👏
Greetings from Ecuador 🇪🇨
Loved black and white TV......until we got a color TV!
i remember this like it was yesterday, it was the last week of school (third grade) , we all went to the local amusement park that weekend and Sunday night we always watched Ed Sullivan. Never thought I would see this again!
I was 11 yrs. old in 1967 and l listened to this song and north to Alaska over and over till l memorized them. They were on 45's. l still no them off by heart. Until tonight I have never seen this on Ed Sullivan.
Really enjoying the '50's hits which are being posted! "The Battle of New Orleans" was a number one hit for Johnny on the Billboard Hot 100 and the Country chart in 1959. It was written by Jimmie Driftwood, and won the Grammy award for Song of the Year. This was the song which gave Johnny his cross-over success in the mainstream pop market. Previously, all his records had charted solely on the country chart (such as "Honky-Tonk Man" and "When it's Springtime in Alaska"). He followed it up with two other big hits, "Sink the Bismarck" (also performed on the Sullivan show and posted earlier) and "North to Alaska" before passing away in a car accident at the age of 35 in 1960. Johnny was a close friend of Johnny Cash.
Thank you for posting this video! I would also love to see Al Martino singing his chart record, "I Can't Get You Out of My Heart" on this episode; his first appearance on the Sullivan show.
Tom, is the 3 year IME/SOFA agreement coming to an end? Or has it been extended? Thought you might know.
@@MostlyBrenda The original 3-year contract should be coming to an end in a month or so, and I don't know, but I have a feeling they have extended it, possibly for another 3 years, but we will see. I'm speculating that might be why they slowed the uploads to one video a day about a year ago. There were 3 less videos a day for the last year, so that would work out to another 3 years of daily videos. I'm also guessing that the channel has been more successful than they had anticipated, thus why a possible extension of the contract. I hope so, because I love this channel!
@@TomElvisSmith Oops, it's actually UMe. I looked at the website and found nothing about an extension, but also nothing about a 3 year limit either. Maybe it was misreported in 2020? Anyway the start date was 12 Jun 2020, so we will soon see. In other news, the Midnight Special channel started a couple of months ago. Great live stuff. The Jim Croce stuff there is top notch. Hall and Oates too. Also they actually post complete shows sometimes. Only four so far. It will take a long time to do all nine years at this rate, but it is great to see everything.
@@MostlyBrenda Yes, the contract was signed between UMe and Sofa Entertainment. UMe controls the music rights and Sofa owns the Ed Sullivan footage. The initial reports of a 3 year contract were in several of the initial press reports in 2020, so it was definitely intended to be a 3 year period at one time. I also remembered the start date being around the middle of June.
Great to hear there is a Midnight Special channel now. A little later than my main music tastes, but I'm glad to see more official YT channels for vintage music shows.
@@TomElvisSmith
My main take away from watching a full episode is what a wide range of music was on the charts and popular. Somehow it's much more narrow today in the digital age.
The old chant of the ancient medieval minstrels about feats in battle, but brought into modern times...
Looking forward to this all day
You can see the look of Joy in Johnnys face when they set off the Alligator, absolutely wonderful watching this
One of my favorite radio songs when I was a little shaver. Maybe cause I could understand the words..☺
What an all-time American classic.
Rip Johnny Horton
Echoing the other comments, what a great live performance. Awesome.
true pure human voices 😊We don't need autotune!! WE ARE HUMANS!!
I always like Johnny Horton’s songs, nice to see him singing it live. Those tv cameras could not handle bright lights very well. Thanks for sharing.
I think he is lip synching, not really singing live.
@@mitchflorida You are probably right, but there a few films of him performing his songs, so I will take what comes along.
@@mitchflorida It's live.
@@sananton2821 Where's the backup singers? It sounds exactly like the studio version. Still very entertaining.
Unbelievable and so "cool🐻❄️" i love it 👌
Of course! A live performance of my 1st FAVORITE SONG! Only on Ed Sullivan!
I love this song! My wife & I visited the actual site of The Battle of New Orleans (in the current suburb of Chalmette) a couple of times when we lived in The Big Easy.
Johnny was lost much too soon.
Oh how wonderful it is to listen to him and see these old clips. One of the greats!
Early Music video Before it's time
If there is a 1:21 after life I sure hope to meet the Great Johnny Horton.
Absolutely brilliant performer ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Love this Great ,Great Song and Video !!!Johnny sang it Wonderful !!!
I was 1yr old in Kodiak Alaska where my dad was stationed when this came out. I still have the vinyls that my dad bought. My dad was attached to VP-19 Squadron
Loved this song
This song is great and Johnny made some great music
Us kids in the 1960's loved Johnny Horton's songs, singing along with the radio on car trips!
My parents used to rock to this song, thank God music has changed so much in my lifetime.
Sick
❤😊
He'd be dead in less than a year.
RIP, Johnny.

The duo Harpers Bizarre did the remake in 1968 & their last Hot 100 swan song.
The question that will never be answered: what would have the 60's brought Johnny had he lived? He had crossed over to the pop charts with this and there would be two more. "North To Alaska" was in the US top 40 pop charts for several weeks when he was killed on Nov 5, 1960.
hit me at work this past week BIG TIME
He left this world too soon and not have won good awards and put in hall of fame.
😔
Back when people actually sang instead of using gizmos, autotune and lip syncing
It's the alligator for me
That has to be the weirdest thing I've ever seen on the Ed Sullivan Show.
This must've been around the time they were switching to VT instead of Kinescopes. Surely this is one of the last Kinescopes of the show before being recorded to VT?
The great thing about being anti-British is that it helps to be pro everyone else.
The Brits are awful even today
Who wrote this song? It wasn't Johnny Horton.
the British was angry because they thought we giving the France weapon on sea so they retaliated but the France was robbing our weapons which is why we lost the war of 1812 cause we gave lots of our ammunitions' away we surrounded august 1814 but didn't sign the treaty till December of 1814 that's basically the only war the us lost cause most our ammunition was France possession if we had more weapons we might have won then history would have been very different then the Monroe doctrine wouldn't have existed Andrew Jackson hung one of British in 1818 which angered James Monroe but James Monroe forgave for his mistake
Johnny died the next year after Ed Sullivan show, in a car crash...@ 35...
Brits out!
Who the hell pick these costumes for this appearance ? The Village People ?
The tinkling banjo sets the "Mood" but THERE ISN'T ONE IN THE GROUP ! 😯 😢 😢 😢
ATTACHMENT: Never take '"CRITICAL THINKING'" for a College Elective 👎 🤪 👎
What in the hell are they wearing?
alaska suits
Kinda gayed it out with the fairy dancing in the background
lol bro chill
You gayed out the comment section with your trash opinion
