This was when there was real talent and real entertainment. How I miss these people.
You mean you don't like Billy Eilish?
How can you NOT DIG THIS...Pete Fountain is enjoying every second and so is everyone else. It is a Classic! They really swing do they not!
He was so young here.
And he was a usual Guest for decades -- Carson loved his talent.
What a clarinet player pete fountain was . Everyone played well on this
He sounds like the late Irving Fazola
Tommy Newsome in the background...WOW ... he's been with Johnny a long time.
I thought Tommy and one of bone players were the only players from the start of the show who stayed with Johnny until the end? I may be wrong….
Look how young Tommy Newsome was. This was before Doc’s time. There all gone now, But how FANTASTIC is it to still be able to watch it today.
Before Doc's time as leader, yes, but not before his time in the band. Doc was part of the Tonight Show band in the 50s when Steve Allen hosted the show. Skitch Henderson was the leader until 1966.
@@ApartmentKing66 Not all of them are gone...Doc's still blowing.
@@NeilTruick I'm not the one who said they're all gone, the original poster did. Doc's in his 90s now and, as you said, still blowing strong.
You can see Doc in the back, when they show all the drummers, playing his trumpet.
I used to watch Pete Fountain the Tonight Show in the 70s when I was an aspiring clarinet player in the elementary school band. I knew I would never be that good, but what an inspiration.
I notice as a drummer...that drummers have the best time Swinging to great music...happy, smiling, swinging, head bobbing...
Pete Fountain what a musician!!
I love this stuff! Thank you Pete for ALL The Great memories!!!
I completely loved this. I sure would love to see and hear more of Pete Fountain from the old Carson shows if possible. Johnny playing on drums was an added plus. Thanks for posting.
Pete is the master great tone
Pete Fountain was THE clarinet player of the TV age (I remember the bald Pete and he moves his neck like a chicken) - he was everywhere. And seeing Jack Sperling in his senior years was awesome.
When he had just started shaving his head I was on the New Orleans Police Department and had just started shaving mine also. It was Mardi Gras and as Pete and his group, The Half Fast Marching Band, came down the street with Pete's bald head leading the group I stepped out in front of them and took of my helmet revealing mine. Pete's reaction was to run up to me and kiss me on top of my head. What a thrill.
I appreciate this rendition of "She'll Be Coming Round the Mountain" that we used to sing in school as a folk song when I was a kid. The title "Marching Round the Mountain" is new to me.
Any rare posting of the great Jack Sperling is a gem. Thanks, John!
That was better than great. I cant thank you enough for posting it.
Wonderful. The drums are playing with a real, legit, "street beat" feel that's at the heart of authentic New Orleans jazz; playing right on the drum heads with the snares turned on. The way it oughtta be.
GOOD drummers that are really drummers first and foremost know this. All the others don't.
Johnny Carson had the winning formula right from the beginning. "From New York, 'The Tonight Show starring Johnny Carson..." became "From Hollywood...and now here's Johnny!" This was entertainment, America's Town Hall convened every weeknight during the famous "Monologue."
And the best thing about it was….no politics at all!
@@ShelleyVideo Johnny made plenty of political jokes. Back in the 60s he would joke about how poorly run NYC was a lot. Mayor Lindsay was the brunt of many monologue jokes.
As rare as finding this piece from the tonight show is finding Johnny Carson playing the drums on his show
my mom used to let me stay up to watch the Tonight Show, what talent he had on❤
Tommy Newsom looked the same all his life.
Johnny Carson was a great drummer & a fabulous magician at that, he started off his career as a magician back in the early 1950's MAY HE R.I.P. GOD BLESS HIS SOUL AMEN. 😇😇😇😇🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Pete was my cousin but I never got to meet him 😥 I do have some of his albums, but this was a nice find! Thanks for posting! 🍻
Fantastic
Thanks John for posting this super great video. Much appreciate everything you do for all drummers. We need more people like you in this world who share great video clips of legends., Once again we are grateful to have you. Thanks John Titsworth. BOOM
I've seen a lot of Pete's stuff on here, but not this. Thank you John Titsworth for the post.
That was amazing. Thank you for posting.
My dads favorite show
Rip everyone
Spectacular, all of it. Thanks for posting.
BadAss,,,,New Orleans Boy
Beautiful!
se los juro que me hubiera gustado nacer en esos años hermoso , hermosa música y que extraordinario clarinetista, soy músico y amor este tipo de música
Wonderful Jack.. so few sightings.... thanks for post.
that's cookin' with gas man
amazing
I remember seeing the "brought to you in living color" and having black and white tv...
The BEST!!!!!!
Johnny used to have Louie Bellson & Buddy on all of the time. He should've added Jack Sperling to that list.
This whole show supposedly exists; the monologue was posted on here, the Jake Erlicht segment is on RUclips from a color videotape source. Would love to see it start to finish.
This was way better than that rap crap heard on Jimmy Fallon's Tonight Show!
Careful...times and tastes change. Most of the folks your parents' age probably thought this was crap at the time.
Mestre pete
There ya go !!
Wow !!! 👌
johnny had some pretty good back up there man. ''like cool dadio''. lol.
Wow!
Press F to pay respects 😔
I believe that's Bernie Glow and Doc Severinsen back in the trumpet section.
Clark Terry as well
@@richardsalvucci3472 Yes! And Snooky Young! Now that was a trumpet section!
Would love to find the appearances on the Tonight Show of the Harry James band with Buddy Rich from 1965 or James with Louis Bellson in 1966.
This particular show with Pete Fountain was preserved on kinescope/16mm film sent to the troops in Germany in the 60s. It was unearthed a few years ago. And yes wouldn't it be great it the same would happen to the Harry James appearances in '65 & '66.
@@luvnglife This is a good clip, and I do appreciate it. But why is the color gone? It's disappointing that the color isn't there...
Oh, man, Louie Bellson is THE best drummer ever, to me! 👍
@@luvnglife can you upload the whole show? I'm sure johnny carson fans would appreciate it! Someone was kind enough to post a whole 1969 tonight show. Show! And fan can finally see it! Show do you mind posting the while of this particular show?
I think that's Tommy Newsom on tenor sax behind Pete.
Супер !
Leon Redbone and Pete Fountaine were and are two of COCO-NANDY'S biggest heroes. He only wishes that he could have met them.
I wish the tonight show with Louis Armstrong was available
Believe it or not, I'm Pete Fountain's fourth cousin!! I play trumpet but I want to strive to be at his level one day!:)
I played with Pete on stage a number of time in NO and Bay St. Louis. Pete gave me much over 40 years....incl double case and 2 clarinets.......one of which recorded a number of Coral records. I use to play on it sometimes with Pete.....I recog. the serial no. when he gave it to me......cheers. I miss Pete everyday.........
opps! Vivienne is girlfriend name....lol. My name is Greg Harrison and I also wrote the article in December issue of The Clarinet Mag. "THE STYLE AND SOUND OF PETE FOUNTAIN". Pete's pic is on the front cover!! This was publi. in honor of Pete after he died Aug. 2016. Greg not Viv.....Hi Benny!
Johnny Carson plays DRUM.
Alguém sabe que boquilha pete jogava na sua clarinet???
From New York
Is that Tommy Newsome on tenor?
I think the white-haired drummer is Paul Edwards and Sperling is playing his Rogers kit.
The white-haired drummer is Godfrey Hirsch. Godfrey's first instrument was the vibes, but he doubled on snare for struttin' kind of numbers.
If you have that entire program, a rarity, please send it up. RCA erased all of the tapes or reused them so few if any of the first ten years of the Carson Show exist.
Why I really want to see a Blue Man Group version of this is a mystery to me.
Pete Fountain could have been cast as a villain on Columbo.
Kinescope?
Really amazing time capsule stuff.
Thank you for sharing this. Pete appeared many times.Where are all those clips? There is supposed to be a cd box set of Pete with Lawrence Welk. Any for sale?
dinkorub I'd have to look at the logs from the Burbank era (1972-92) of Carson's "Tonight" re: Fountain's guest shots, but with the exception of kinescopes like this and super rare original color videotape, all of Carson's New York years (1962-72) were wiped by NBC without Carson's knowledge. I was quite tickled to discover this kinescope clip.
dinkorub I forgot to say in my other reply, but the album "Lawrence Welk Presents Pete Fountain" is available digitally, and used copies of the vinyl record are for sale on Amazon and elsewhere. I'm not certain about a box set.
Yeah, the great Pete was with Welk from 1955 until December 1959. Pete walked out on Welk because he wanted to jive up a Christmas carol, and Welk wouldn't hear of it. As a sidenote, he also lost Alice Lon the Champagne Lady for showing "too much knee" on camera, telling her that "cheesecake does not fit our show." Lon responded by saying "all I did was sit on a desk and cross my legs! That's how a lady sits down!" Enough irate viewer mail persuaded Welk to try to coax Lon back, but her decision was made.
Johnny Carson plays drum.
Do you have the full episode of Austin City Limits from 1982? Featuring Pete Fountain and the Jazzmanian Devil.
I didn't know Carson could play the sticks.
Is that Tommy Newsome behind Pete Fountain?
Yes
What a show, Johnny kept up with the rest. No where is the talent like this today. Just political animals.
Why do some drummers look like they are having so much fun?
Who's the older guy playing tthe drums, Chrustchev?
Just curious if Tommy Newsome was with the show from the very beginning. I'm pretty sure Doc was. I don't remember why Skitch Henderson left or how many years into the show it happened. Ed McMahon's intro with heeeers Johnny got noticeably longer over the years. Wish the very first episode existed. I have heard an audio portion of the very first monologue. It was played once on an anniversary show.
Skitch left in 1966, wanted to stay in New York while the show was moving to California.
@@markbuckley8675 No, according to the Carson Podcast, Skitch got a bit too flirtatious with the daughter (or niece, I don't remember which) of an RCA bigwig who in turn told Johnny to get rid of him...or else.
This is only yesterday. What has happened?
The day before I was born..as if anyone cares
Dec 7, 1964 for me
Aw! 🙂
Where was Ed Shaugnessy?
Playing gigs
Scrolling quickly through youtube and went "wait, is that Hitler playing the clarinet?"
No just Mussolini
Doc Severinsen is the trumpeter with the mustache, right?
Yeah, looks like him.
Why so many drummers?

Johnny is playing right handed. I thought he was a lefty
A lot of lefties play righty. In my case, my first drum teacher was an elementary school band director who didn’t know the drums well enough to know that lefties set up differently than righties. I learned how to play like all the other righties in the class. Ringo Starr is a lefty who plays righty, and there are many.
Jerry Lee Lewis brought me here, he's parked out back in the bushes.
0:44 - Poor Johnny, with the tobacco drug which KILLED him!
It should read "Johnny Carson plays Snare Drum..."
They got the band together and bent the gig out of shape
Especially when you hear Pete's album version:

John how much are Dolly Parton's worth?
Drums too loud!
that cat looks like hot-lips hannigan from the flintstones.
His video came onto my homepage, and I thought the exact same thing
I can't watch this without thinking of the moronic NBC bean counter that went ahead and erased the tapes of Carson's New York era.
