  • "Broadway and movie star Carol Channing brought glitz to the gridiron as the first solo halftime performer. But was it this halftime? The NFL, a 2014 Pepsi ad and Channing herself all say it was 1970, so who are we to quibble. But the video is Channing-free, and she is not mentioned with the other performers. She supposedly sang "When the Saints Go Marching In," but the video shows the band playing that number sans Channing. Archivist Jon Kendle from the Pro Football Hall of Fame found no news clips from the days after the game that mention her - not even a New York Daily News story that mentioned Hirt, Piazza and the Southern band. Did the New York paper just forget to name-drop a huge Broadway star? It's another mystery. (Don't worry, she shows up for certain in Super Bowl VI.)" - Washighton Post

      I agree that this is a lot of fun to watch, and I'm glad it's available even though it's not the greatest quality video in the world. IMHO, the Super Bowl halftime show jumped the shark BIG TIME in the early 1990's. I much prefer these old-school halftime shows from the early years of the Super Bowl.

    Dear reelblack: Quite often when they refer to the "1970" Super Bowl, they're referring to the Super Bowl that was played at the end of the 1970 season, which would actually have been played in calendar 1971 (Baltimore 16, Dallas 13). You might check to see if Carol Channing appeared as a soloist in that halftime show. Similarly, this game, Super Bowl IV, is usually referred to as the '69 Super Bowl, as it was the game that capped off the '69 season, even though it was played on January 11, 1970. Certainly whenever I think of the '68 Super Bowl, I think of the Jets, even though their win over the Colts came in Jan., '69.

    • @SleepyLestatSF

    For those who don’t realize this was taken in 1970. The reason I say that is that Dr. Isaac Greggs from Southern University was Band Director starting in 1969. So if this was taped in the 1950s Greggs wouldn’t be the director of SU Band.

      Elvis Presto performed in the Super Bowl XXIII (1989) halftime show. Although I love old-time rock and roll, I was actually kind of underwhelmed with that show because with a name like "Elvis Presto," I was expecting to hear mostly Elvis Presley songs, and I think they only performed one of his songs in the entire show.

    It's just a damn shame that the NFL hadn't figured out yet that the Super Bowl halftime show could be the spectacular mini concert that it has become. Because if they had, we might have seen The Beatles playing at one of the early Super Bowls. That would be a nice thing to have archived on videotape or film. But alas, it wasn't until after the NFL started inviting the "Up With People" people in the 1970s that they finally figured out that their halftime shows were a showcase opportunity that they were basically wasting.

    • @timothysprengeler4071
      @timothysprengeler4071 6 месяцев назад +1

      I think a lot of it had to do with low TV ratings during the halftime period. Re: my previous comment about "jumping the shark"--while that expression is often used in reference to a perceived decline in the overall quality of a show, it originally referred to the use of some type of gimmick to try to boost the ratings. That is exactly what happened to the Super Bowl halftime show in the 1990's; they started doing lavish concert-style shows with big-name entertainers to keep the TV audience tuned in.

    Carol Channing performed at Super Bowl VI (6), not Super Bowl IV (4). Overall, I got tired a long time ago of seeing pop acts perform at Super Bowls. Unless it's someone truly talented like Prince or The Who, we need to go back to marching bands.

    • @kenkleiber7540

      It's very confusing because everything online says Carol Channing performed at both the 1970 and 1972 Super Bowls and she had said so herself. And odder, descriptions say she was right in the middle of it all in 1970, with the marching bands performing "When the Saints Go Marching In" after the battle re-enactment. And then she was invited back 2 years later to perform again. So this has always been very confusing!
