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.

Im 24 years and i like this 100000 times more than trash whe have today
Yeah except I’m 11 and so is my friend who likes it
You are special….Remember that. Listen to The Beatles.
Intelligent guy
Yes!! Lil buddy I wished the youth would bring this music back I was born in 72 too late missed all this but fortunately I’m 51 and I am collecting the studio cameras used back then to film what you’ve saw I’m wanting the one that was used on American bandstand back in the day it’s in Atlanta I’ll put it in a room secluded I just love the 50s and 60s plus women were more decent then
@@JHedrick72 Yes, but we know what good music is. We certainly don't need youth approval. It's their loss.
That guitar solo is awesome.
@@Willi-Wucher truth. epic solo, never seen anyone nail it like on the record. those early rock guys had serious jazz chops.
@@Willi-Wucher Exactly. And that’s how Western Swing got started.
Shredding before shredding was cool
Too bad amps back in those days were so underpowered and weak. To modern ears it sounds like an unplugged guitar.
@@howardstern666
No surprise, 'cause Franny Beecher did have been a jazzman before he joint to the Comets *. . .*
Love the look on the guitarist's face after he got through that lead solo live. Talk about pressure, live on The Ed Sullivan Show!!
I saw that, too! His buddy on keys behind him has got his back but he's out there all alone on Ed Sullivan. Whew!
He’s Franny Beecher, a true guitar pioneer. Johnny Grande in keyboards. The Comets were an exceptional band, far more than mere backup. Finally they made the R&R HOF. Superb!
Actually I think Johnny G’s on accordion. My mistake.
@@newerafrican you know I thought that was some sort of electric piano...but it's actually a steel pedal guitar, just without the pedals
@@charliejdk That's right, Johnny Grande is on accordion. The steel guitar player was named Billy Williamson.
I’m 18 years old and this is better than what we have today!! This was where it was at!!
Big respect, you as you have good taste in music
You're darn tootin'!
The accordion is due for a rock and roll comeback any day now.
fleetwood mac did it too on tusk lol
Check out the cover of Sweet Child of Mine by The Heimatdamisch, if you want a bit of accordion.
Hope the double bass does as well
@@TheAlps36 In Rockabilly groups it's never gone away! The accordion was practical because on songs like Rudy's Rock and Straight Jacket it let Johnny Grande dance around (hard to do with a 200-lb piano) and it was more portable for touring too.
"This is the Wolfmannn ...and here's Mr. Bill Haley ...moving up the charts" 🐱
The guitar solo is short but oh so fucking sweet
Yeah, Franny Beecher did be a real genius with his guitar!
It is P-H-Y-S-I-C-A-L-L-Y IMPOSSIBLE to not at the very least tap your foot to this 😃😃😃
An accordion in a rock band….wow super stars 👍👍👍❤️
The first rock'n'roll singer on Ed Sullivan Show, father of rock
Ike Turner is the Father of Rock
@@christianjohnson3317 no it was Fats Domino
I’m 13 and this is one of my favorite songs; way better than the garbage people at my school listen to. Bill Haley is a legend!!!
This man and his music always makes me want a cheeseburger, onion rings, and a milkshake.
The True First Rock 'n' Roll - recorded in April, 12, 1954 by Bill Haley & his Comets who came recording proto-rock 'n' roll since 1952...
And Rock & Roll Was Born...
I like how Bill Haley's eyes roll around while singing, very animated and entertaining. This band has lots of high energy and catchy tunes, great style too.
As a child, he had an operation which severed his left eye optic nerve, rendering him blind in that eye.
Probably the biggest hit and 1st Rock and Roll song: An Anthem of early Rock and Roll. I didn't know that a damn Accordion was being used to make that bouncy sound throughout the song, along side and to help the guitar. Amazing.
In 1970 my brother's college roommate played "Born to Be Wild" for us on the accordion and wow, it was great. Who knew?
Johnny Grande, who played accordion with the group, was actually the brains behind their musical arrangements.
@@carlholm5558 Wow, that's interesting! This song has always been one of my absolute favorite from that era. Fantastic arrangement.
@@carlholm5558 yeah...I heard about that. Apparently he was the only member who could read sheet music
Happy Heavenly 99th Birthday Bill Haley July 6 1925 - February 9 1981
A Masterpiece of Rock n Roll.
Being able to witness stuff like the birth of rock and roll, or the first moon landing, as it happened on TV must have been a trip... I grew up a couple decades later so I got to witness such live spectacles as the Challerger explosion and 9/11. Times have sure changed.
So you know they made a movie about Elvis? They should totally make a movie about Bill Haley as well
You can see by the line up that the Band were basically a Country Band they even have a steel guitar. I played support to Bill and his Band in a London Club back in the Sixties and being a Country music fan had a long talk with him in the dressing room of the Club about Country music, he was a real Gentleman.
Holy cow. Did he know at the time that he was part of the foundation of a new genre of music?
@@JCFRFutterman He probably knew that he does something unusual, but I don't think he knew that he's making a history.
Check out the vid for Crazy Man Crazy. There is a steel solo.
@@JCFRFuttermanHe did. In some interviews, he said rock n roll actually started in 1949, and they struggled a lot to get it recognized in the very early 50's. Up until 1954/1955
One of the most classic Sullivan clips! When "Rock Around the Clock" was heard at the opening of "The Blackboard Jungle" and teens went wild listening to it in the theaters, that was the signal that rock and roll had arrived in the mainstream, and there was no turning back. Bill Haley and his Comets really got young people fired up and excited during 1955 and 1956 with the new sound (a melding of R&B and country, among others)! Great stuff!
Great trivia just there! Thanks!
@@DanyTV79 You're welcome!
Wasn't born when this came (was born in 57), still one of my all time favorites.
I actually know this more for the opening for Happy Days lol
It is in the end of movie.
This song is 70years old this year and as popular as it was new!!
Rock around the clock forever!
FOREVER!!!
I listen to Bill nightly
Gone but not forgotten
So much changed and so much stayed the same. The rockin' beat, the guitar lead, the way a rock n roll song ends. They were truly pioneers and what they created still exists today.
I see why today's generation looks back to these good simple times. And the abandonment of these times is why this generation is so messed up now..
My gosh ; we had Elvis , Bill Hailey , Ricky Nelson , the Everly Brothers , and so many more . I was born in early 1956 ; & my older brother & sister always had a radio going ; I’m so glad & thankful that I grew up with my ears glued to this amazing music ! 😢❤
My favorite rock n roll song!!!!!!!!!!!!! I used to play this song on ukulele back in elemantary school (I'm 18 & in my last year at high school, now!)
Ringo Starr said when he went to see Blackboard Jungle at the theater when he was about 15 the kids in the theater literally tore it up when this song came on. He said "that was good for me to see" and laughed
The true KING of Rock n Roll.
These guys are so badass..
Here listening to Bill Halley on one more anniversary of his passing away (February 9, 1981).
The first R&R to reach #1.
Was that rock around the clock or earth angel ?
@@theog2315 Earth Angel was #5. I am going by Billboard. Your mileage may vary 😎
always loved the variety of instruments in the band and the various solos in the different songs
I was reared on Rock and Roll. Lucky Me. Miss you Ma♥️🙏
I love the keyboardist cheering on the lead guitarist.
Thats a steel guitar
@@50sRocKabilly Oh yeah, you're right. I see that now.
@@50sRocKabilly omg im a subscriber of your chanel
It truly is amazing to see the foundations of rock/metal music as we know it today! This generation started something revolutionary and they didn't know it!
Ed Sullivan has to be one of the greatest men that ever lived.
Respectfully agreed
Every time I see old Rock and Roll videos like this, I wonder what my parents thought when they saw it live. Elvis, The Beatles, I wish I had memories of that when it was first happening.
The best start ever to early rock & roll !!! Fantastic lead guitar solo !!!
Go listen to the original 1954 recording, turn it up loud - it is the best thing ever! Truly, Haley's breathless vocal and that amazing guitar solo! It's the record that started Rock and Roll which gave us Elvis, The Beatles and everything else (good and a heap of bad) - Go listen to that original record, which by the way, was for decades the biggest selling single of all time.
Cheers to Franny Beecher for playing such a great solo. Not quite a note-for-note of Danny Cedrone's solo from the studio version, but still excellent. And is it just me or is the guy on the far right like the most superfluous steel player in the world?!
You mean Danny Cedrone on the original recording. The steel player is Billy Williamson who was in the Comets since their formation and before in Haleys Saddlemen.. Listen to their earlier recordings to hear what a great player he was.
As Elvis was the King of rock n roll, Bill Haley was the father of rock n roll and Johnny Cash was the father of the country music for myself !!
How you like them apples? The song that ushered in the modern "Rock" era...Rock n Roll's forgotten hero...Bill Haley
they should send this one into space capsule next time
First R&R artist to perform on Sullivan, with a slide guitar and an acordian, go figure?
The accordion makes the whole performance. Puts in the backing texture. LOL.
So Brilliant!
This is the very best of bill haley and his comets i love this version
This was, literally, the birth of Rock...and arguably of modern Pop music.
It's easy to forget this as those who first danced to it are now sadly mostly gone.
Some say this is the very first Rock n' Roll Hit
Got to
Fix my
Time machine 😊😎📀🌛🎷🎸🙃👍
Actual live performance. Pretty cool.
early rock what and exciting time
My grandma love this song
The song that started it all.
This is how rock n' roll began.
I 💗 this song especially when I hear it during Happy Days😊👍
Gosh I love bill haley
Where it all started 🎸🤘🏻✌🏻
Rock in roll raiz
i never get tired of this song
Everyone after lock down
Amazing
O rock é eterno
잘 보고 들었습니다.
This amazing clip completely live ❤️
And thinking without this I'll probably not be able to headbang to my metal favorites on Spotify today
Awesome!
Fantastic
The quintessential rock ‘n roll song!
Very good!!
Bill was like: Okay so we are gonna do the song in a little faster tempo and you could see the lead guitarist was sweating bullets during the solo
In the original recording released in May 1954, the guitar solo was performed by virtuoso Danny Cedrone (who unfortunately died in the summer of '54).
@@markmmv Yeah he died not long after the song was recorded. I don’t think it had even hit the national airwaves yet.
Just BRILLIANT
Un grand du rock, toujours un immense plaisir de l'écouter. Jamais oublié.
C'est vrai...
♥
Simplesmente espetacular 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Wouuuu.... brutal el solo de guitarra🤩🤯🤯😲😲de ayacucho_peru
Buena apreciación, compañero Dany...
wow, the song that started the rock story. I love it
Andres Manosalvas Huh? Little Richard and Chuck Berry started it all. Sorry to piss on your delusion, but this did NOT start rock n roll.
Andres Manosalvas lmaooooooooo. BLACK people started rock n roll.
@@TempeSoldier123 what ever, BLACK LIVES MATTER puppets. Little Richard is awesome and Chuck Berry too, but it was the first no. 1 record of the whole Rock story. Stop to be racists and divide people. Enjoy music GROUP OF IDIOTS.
@@2young2old BLACK LIVES MATTER puppets. Little Richard is awesome and Chuck Berry too, but it was the first no. 1 record of the whole Rock story. Stop to be racists and divide people. Enjoy music GROUP OF IDIOTS.
@@TempeSoldier123 This didn't start Rock and Roll, but it was the first big Rock and Roll hit. And for that they deserve credit. We may have never ever heard of Chuck Berry, Little Richard, or Elvis if not for this song.
Watching this on Bill Haley's birthday.
My cousin Rebecca performed this at a dance show in High Wycombe, England in 2003.
Holy shit!!!!
Gracias. Lo comparto.
Haleys original Comets before most split off and became a band called the Jodimars.
Bill Haley said Bob Wills invented Rock & roll
Except he didn't, so...
reminds me of my grandad
🤗🤗❤❤
Verdadeiro pai Rook Bill Haley da música linda ❤️💜❤️💚💙💚💜❤️💜🤍🌺🌷🌸🌺🌷🌸🌺🌷🌸💚💙🌺🌺🌺
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣Eat your heart out Jimmy Page!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
And that's how you create Memorable lead guitar🙄👍🏻👍🏻, instead of 1,000 notes a second that gives a hoot about
...and so it begins !!

Клёво!
Great performance, but sadly the primative TV mic setup didn't pickup thel lapsteel or accordionist...
Sad, things lost to time, but still a wonderful early TV Rock and Roll live performance.
Very good song. At least we can hear properly the bass here...only one mic ?
La musica es el elepsis de la vida
