    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.

    He was FIFTEEN when he filmed this performance. Barely knew the father whose long shadow he likely was not ready to step into. The man has had a difficult year: losing his daughter, bumped off the Monday Night Football telecast he had been synonymous with. But he became an iconic entertainer in his own right and a deserved Country Music Hall of Famer.

    Hank Jr loved his mom but it’s well documented by hell just about EVERYBODY that she was narrow minded in her advice to her son about his music. She was not a good listener at all & it took Hank jr getting into his twenties to break her one track minded management of his career. He’s a very uniquely skilled maverick and his own man. It would’ve been absolutely fascinating to have seen how Hank sr would’ve handled the same situation. I suspect he would’ve said just do your individual art and style son.

    There's an interview where George Jones talks about meeting Hank Sr. for the first time when he was 15 years old. The lady that introduced him told Hank that he could sing just like him. According to George, Hank told him that he used to sing like Roy Acuff. But then he realized that they already had a Roy Acuff.
