I am 74yrs and like you still have the album. I first heard them when I was 13 or 14 and I remember quite clearly telling myself that they were bound for greatness.
Only if they put away some money and start a business.. Something tangible like a milk bar or car salesman.. Even save $500 for a 10% deposit on a home 🏠..
What's so great about RUclips is that you watch the legendary Stones in their infancy in 1964 and ion a matter of seconds switch to them performing 58 years later in front of 50,000 fans.
A moment frozen in time for future generations to enjoy how rock and roll was played without all the fancy gizmos, stage props, fire shows and the works. I was very lucky to live through these times.
The 1960s was the best time to grow up in. So much was changing and so much was new. Music was changing and we were at the dawn of the space age. Kids, no matter when era they are in, dream, and there was a lot to dream about back then. Black and white TV became color and short hair gave way to long. We saluted the flag in school and played with toy guns and no one had bad thoughts about guns. We had Marilyn Monroe, Elvis, The Beatles and The Stones. Try and top all that.
Their hair was even longer than the Beatles and that was radical back then. It was great how open minded Mike Douglas was to put them on his show. He was probably curious to see what they were about and he recognized that this was the next wave of Rock music. He was also trying to scoop Ed Sullivan and he did. I’m so glad this was preserved for posterity because back then they erased Tapes and this could have been lost forever. Instead we get to see it and enjoy seeing their debut on American TV! 👏🏻🎸😎 And thank God for RUclips!
I heard a story about how a principle back then called a troublemaking student in and said-"If you're going to wear your hair long, why don't you keep it long and neat like the Beatles?". The kid said-"No. I want it long and scruffy, like The Stones". That pretty much sums up the Beatles vs the Stones.
@MarkRNY That’s an accurate story from the time. Back then the Stones were considered more unruly and the bad boys because the Beatles had a cleaner image. Teenagers wanted the unruly look. That appealed to them. Good story!
@@dynjarren8355 Appeals to me! The Beatles were great but, imo, overhandled and overproduced. The Stones just let fly. I think that's a big reason the Beatles broke up and the Stones are around 60 years later, still packing them in. Also, the Beatles music was "Then"--the 60s, and it was geared towards white middle and upper middle class kids. The Stones music is timeless and appeals to all races, income levels, etc. When I lived in the south, they loved the Stones. When I was in Central and South America, there were Rolling Stones tongues everywhere. I was in a bar in Harlem a few weeks ago, and they were playing Gimme Shelter. They're also THE iconic "bad boys", and always will be.
@@markrny5183 You like what you like. The Stones have some great songs! No doubt about it. And quite a catalog to choose from so I’m not going to argue. They achieved greatness! I like several of their albums like Let it Bleed, Sticky Fingers and Some Girls. So to each, their own! Enjoy! 👏🏻🎸😎
Mike Douglas was on the cutting edge of music with lots of big stars on his show. He was also very generous giving them time to sit down and speak. Hoe cool to allow audience members to come up on stage. I bet they still remember that to this day.
He was actually an old school schmaltzy pop singer but was surprisingly friendly with and respectful of the "new guys". That week the Stones played In Cleveland where he was still based. First time I saw them. So glad they have this particular clip up.
His afternoon TV show was casual and unformatted, unlike other shows that required “lip syncs” and “live-to-track” performances usually mandated by the labels
I will always remember when David Bowie described one of their first London gigs: he told a few kids rushed at the front, and a man from back rows snapped “Get your hair cut! “ to which Mick replied “ Yeah, to look like you?!” I laughed to tears!
It must have been wonderful for the fans, watching a new dawn arrive. Raw, raw talent, with no skullduggery digital effects. This was an age of 'letting loose'.
I saw them tonight in Atlanta, they're still the same band no messing around just a band playing on stage, no tracks, no bullshit just a damn good rock and roll band
While the Stones would go on to be a great band, this show was anything but a new dawn. One song they should have had to pay Chuck Berry royalties on, one unremarkable pop song, a Buddy Holly Cover, and a Willie Dixon cover. The best thing you could say about this show is that they chose great source material.
This was just stuff for teenagers. Not taken seriously by anybody but 17 year olds etc…no one knew what was going to happen in the next 50 years. …including the Stones.
Yeah I caught the stones Texas Jam in the early 80s ZZ Top was warm-up band and as far as I'm concerned they blew away the Rolling Stones...... it wasn't even a contest
Brian Jones...the "soul" of The Stones...sadly missed! I am a great Beatles fan too...for me the whole "battle " of the bands was just publicity...They admired each other and both bands brought incredible creative originality to popular music...in sometimes very different ways.
@Duncan McKeown Definitely! Jones was the "soul" and on those old recordings he'll always have a spot and be counted as part of the Band despite Jagger and Richards tossing him out!
I remember hearing the phrase "generation gap" growing up. This was it. Cool that Douglas had them on and gave them serious air time without going Ed Sullivan or censoring their songs. Still, pretty awkward interlude there.
@cockyhemi-123 Brian was the heart of the band. Too bad drugs destroyed him. As far as image, Ronnie Wood & Keith stole the show in later years, But that would not have happened without Mick Taylor in between. Bill Wyman just retired, he was NOT looking for a solo career and he sure was not going to bring his new lady around that bunch.
I saw this when it aired! I came home from first grade and my mom had this on. "Come look at this group, they're like the Beatles". Well..not exactly. I remember the giant polka dots vividly-- and being sort of confused by the band! Amazing that this has been preserved in such high quality after 50 years, Thanks a lot for uploading!
That is so cool. I remember the Beatles on Ed Sullivan but mainly because my older sister made a scene about it all day. She took pictures of the TV screen.
Brian Jones was the heart & soul of the group, but he damn sure didn't have Keith's tolerance for drugs. It's easy to hear the influence of southern Black performers on the group, and to their credit, they've always acknowledged that.
55 years later in 2019 they are the world's number 1 concert draw and money earners! The Rolling Stones have been around my entire life and I dig them big time!
This is the only Stones line-up that worked. Brilliant combination of musical styles all in the same bag but unique. RIP Brian & Charlie. Bill your bass playing made the band.
Keith,Brian and Mick smokin hot back then. Mike Douglas was so aware but his show was on like min afternoon. Can you imagine back then 2 pm and watching this with grandma . Man the good old days from sure. My granny was one hip chick.
Bull S... T, i bet you not there in the 60s it was the greatest Mick lovely lad.Student in London during that era and the music played in the background while i studied . Mick still going strong Aug 4th 2022 so am I. 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪💋💋💋💋💋☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧❤️❤️❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Charlie... what??? Charlie Watts! The Stones at their finest... Bill Wyman was the c o o l e s t bass-player ever: the way he hold his bass was signature to the Stones image. Keiths' playing - look mam, no hands - was already there... Such a bunch of sweeties! STONED FOREVER!
How happy are we that there was video recording these 60's and 70's bands back in the day? Hearing these great bands is wonderful but seeing them sing it live or even lip synced is fantastic! It's hard to believe they are still performing.
When the band meets the girls, you have to realize - what we consider as eternally cool, people like the Stones CREATED. So you are living in the world that they made.
Very true. I was just thinking along those lines the other day. They made and changed history. Created fads, fashions, hairstyles, what to like and buy like Astin Martin's, mini cooper's, courvoisir or how you spell that. The list goes on.
They didn’t make cool. They appropriated everything from black musicians in the American south. The music, style and their moves. All of it. Just like Elvis, the Stones simply made it more palatable for white audiences. And the Stones would be the first to admit it.
In those days, the Rolling Stones were something attractive for the youth, in my opinion, because they were very young and they played, in terms of guitars and percussion, quite accurated R&B covers (even better, at covering R&B songs, than the Beatles) but soon they would realise they had to show they were also able to compose good songs, and at the begining, at composing, the Beatles were better than the Stones...
This memory video is priceless, the Stones were born already geniuses and predestined to maintain their legend until the 21st century. God bless them. Brian and Charlie still rock with angels.
@@TheGuitarReb believe he became their tour manager and enjoyed his golf game, booking their hotels far away from the city so he could enjoy his golf, funny when you think about it 😅
The Stones doing Chuck Berry. Perfect. Nobody then could have ever imagined all that was to come: Aftermath, Satanic Majesties' Request, Beggar's Banquet, Let it Bleed, Sticky Fingers, and all the rest of the wild ride that playing-two-strings-next-to-each-other-together-at-the-same-time, jungle music would lead, and what a great ride it would be. Still the GREATEST ROCK AND ROLL BAND IN THE WORLD, THE ROLLING STONES!
Back when there were only 3 channels to choose from the programs were of much higher quality. We have 300 channels now and nothing like Mike Douglas or Ed Sullivan.
Your right! That was huge to be on TV. Also do you notice they keep looking to the right. The Sponsors were telling them slow down your movements. A few times you could tell they wanted to let go !!!!
Douglas was ditzy but pretty class. I didn't get him at the time. TV programs were held to a somewhat higher standard back then because there weren't so many, more people tended to watch each show.
Back the Ed sullivan and shoes like this were the only way most kids could see their heros. It gave them a mystery and power that are not available in this overexposed social media age. Peter Grant understood this and so you had to come see Led Zeppelin live to see them.
What a great document of the very early days of the Stones. Everything seems to be still new for them and the girls coming on stage are priceless. The beginning phase of the greatest Rock'n Roll Band.
@@howie9751 I was hoping I did and that you were not literally asking what other daytime talk shows were on television. Actually, what I should have written was that Mike's daytime show featured the hippest musical guests of ANY talk show--day or night, thereby expanding the comparison beyond, say, The Dinah Shore and Merv Griffin shows in the afternoons, to include Johnny Carson's Tonight Show as well as countless others at night. You can research the names yourself, but the genre's been around a long, long time.
The shot of the bored housewife at about 5:25 after the line "I hear the telephone that hasn't rung" is priceless. This music was not intended for her generation!
The Rolling Stones, thank goodness for the British Invasion 🇬🇧!! Loving our old blues masters music and bringing it to the forefront for everyone to enjoy, forever. Much Respect. Hail! Hail! Rock ‘n’ Roll!! ❤🤘
They came to my little town in Minnesota that year too, to Big Reggie's Danceland in Excelsior! The next year I saw the Beatles play at Met Stadium in Bloomington and life was complete at the age of 17.
There was an interview with John Cougar Mellencamp back in the 1980's and he said "In his high school,back in the mid-1960's, there were two camps The Beatles camp and The Rolling Stones Camp.He said "That he was in The Rolling Stones Camp".
I don't see it on television,now. Stones, as well as a few others ,are the pinnacle Best show I saw, ever- Los Angeles coliseum - stones. - with George thorogood, j. Guides. Probably didn't spell that right ! Lol.
Mick Never missed a beat. Those old enough to remember the Mike Douglas show, well square as square could be back in 1964. What a great find. Look at Keith funny. Look at Chrlie's drum set
Great Band, Great performance by 1964 standards. The Stones are cutting their teeth in this era and just starting their meteoric rise. I love how Bill Wyman plays the bass like an upright bass. I like the diversity of their sound at such an early stage. They are channeling Chuck Berry in the first song and what would become the Byrds or Mamas and Papas sound in the second song. It is funny in retrospect to how famous and ubiquitous the Stones have become the Mike didn't know their names.
I love the young Rolling Stones with Brian Jones ! Brian is the coolest ! Here he plays the guitar , harmonica perfectly and moves superbly , his comments and jokes in interviews are very witty. Brian Jones was the most convincing , very talented musician and a handsome guy with a good sence of humor. It's a pity that he left this would young , 27 years is very little for such a gifted musician.
I was shocked to learn TODAY that he was the group’s founder, original lead singer and named the group too. I remember thinking back in the day that he looked out of place in the group because his hair was so light. SMH
@Michael Wessner He was most likely nervous about coming to America and playing and having to speak on the Mike Douglas Show from The Ed Sullivan Show.
On today's talk/variety shows, a rock group might get one song and maybe a very, very brief interview. Here, the 'Stones get almost 14 minutes, four complete songs, and an interview! (Of course, for most of it's run, "The Mike Douglas Show" was 90 minutes each day; today, an hour is the standard length for this kind of program)
I just finished a book written by James Phelge, called' Nankering with the Rolling Stones, The Early Years'. Phelge lived with Brian, Mick and Keith when they first started out and he tells some really interesting and funny stories about how it was to live with these guys. They were pretty much just normal, quiet, unassuming young men who thought that they would maybe last a few years and die out. Who knew. If you want to know about the guys when they were in there early twenties before they blew up the icons they are today this is the book to read.
I read that, too. Anyone who likes the Stones should know what it was like before the got welcomed to the machine. Keith was the one who saw it coming first.
Well Bill Wyman was a happily married man with a day job. Then it was found out he owned an amplifier. The Rolling Stones soon took care of his happy marriage and turned him on to drugs, alcohol, and groupie girls. Poor Bill always felt alone except for Charlie. That's because the Bass and drum work so closely together in a band. He quit the band because he did not want his new love to be around those "crazy" guys. Ironic because he was the most crazy of them all!
Oh my 😍ty 💋mick was so damn young and adorable but the best came when they all cut loose n got their true groove on 🎶🖤🎶 ~dying laughing with that interview bit~quite embarrassing how the girls were so emotional and guys pretty shy there~lol All good and great share xx 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
The early Stones, doing what they could do so fantastically well : laying down exciting Rhythm and Blues, and reminding America, perhaps, of these great pioneers of R and B who had given them their inspiration, originators such as Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley and Buddy Holly.
Without the first and second British Invasions (Beatles/Stones, etc., then Cream/Hendrix/Who/Zep, et al), Rock&Roll as we know it was going to be dead or dying. The energy and pure excitement of 1956-57 through 1960 was being replaced by the crap of the early 60's. I know. I grew up through that and kids were getting bored with it by 1961. The surf craze and Beach Boys were the only real rock&roll out there. Until The Beatles. The rest is history. It's so ironic that the English groups were saviors to the greatest American cultural music of all time - Rock And Roll, which came from The Blues. Not that Jazz was unimportant, I don't mean that. But R&R was the catapult to modern American culture of the 20th Century.
Agree. Also, technology happened at the right time as did politics and commerce i.e. Top 40 v FM. Without FM starting in '69 for real WBCN in Boston etc - you were not going to HEAR Cream, Hendrix,King Crimson, Vanilla Fudge, Savoy Brown, Ten Years After, Van Der Graf Generator, Groundhogs, Hawkwind or Taj Mahal etc. for that matter....
WBCN (The Rock Of Boston) was the greatest radio station of my fellow Bostonian rock music lovers' lifetime. And you are totally right about the influence of those stations. 'BCN came on the air at 12:00 AM, March 15, 1968. It was the second real progressive FM station after KMPX, San Francisco, which had begun the year before. It took over the call letters of Boston Concert Network, a classical FM station, and began it's story by playing Cream's "I Feel Free" as the first song. That was also one of the last two songs played when it went off the analog airwaves in 2009. It finally disappeared from even the digital domain in January, 2016. WBCN-FM ruled the Boston and New England airwaves and deservedly so. There are stations like this on satellite (sort of) but none exist like this for free anymore. Isn't it a pity, as George Harrison would say? 'BCN was a huge part of my life and those of my friends as young and older adults. Good post, my friend. A quick trip to the wiki page of WBCN (FM) gives a fine overview on that station's history. It was a broadcasting giant.
May I say Fuckin' Aye. I lived in Concord MA taking lunches via bicycle by Louisa May Alcott's grave diggin' 'BCN in '70 playing Beatles "Get Back" tapes which a few months later became Let It Be and Macca's 1st solo LP BEFORE they were officially released-Charles Laquidera and the WBCN boys were bustin' out the complete un-Spectorized shitload of BEATLES when nobody else at the time had the tapes - priceless- don't even get me going about the Boston Tea Party venue........
I lived in the NYC metro market, in the 60s and 70s, and the progressive FM stations there began with WOR-FM 98.7. Six months later, ownership tightened up their playlist, freeing a path for the powerhouse WNEW-FM 102.7 to take over as the coolest game in n town for the next decade. Best jocks, the least-restricted playlist, the first to air interesting new artists and the newest “Things From England” each Friday afternoon with Scott Muni. College stations filled in the musical gaps by playing stuff a bit too uncommercial for WNEW FM. *A golden era.*
First song live, second lip synced the radio hit, then back to live. Those girls are probably pushing 80, they've had a hell of story to tell for their whole life time.
This was quite the popular afternoon TV show....my mom loved it. It was one of the few nationally popular shows base in Philadelphia. Naturally, the Stones were something very unusual and different....but old Mike brought them on, gave them time for several songs, and did an interview. He could have made a little more effort to know the names and the names of the songs. It all seems condescending to modern viewers, but it was really quite extraordinary that he gave them this positive exposure.
@@greggsheaffer2521 Thanks. Didn't know that... "The Mike Douglas Show ... aired its first Philadelphia-based show on August 30, 1965." * The Wikipedia article is amazing. It says Sly of the Family Stone almost got into it with Muhammad Ali (wonder who'd have won), that James Brown had a heated argument with David Suskind. I remember John and Yoko being on the show, but not that they were on for a whole week. It's amazing who open these old guys were and how the disagreements seem to have been real between the greats, not theater like the clown shows of today. * American Bandstand also came out of Philly. And lots of great records were made at RCA in Camden in the early days, from 1901!!! Checking my memory I found out that the label RCA Camden would reissue classical recordings, but change the names of the orchestras. They made up names based on Philadelphia hotels so they wouldn't compete with the higher priced ones.
Great to see old footage of the original lineup, when the Stones were just starting, as Mick said they were only together 18 months at that time. Very cool!
Who would think that 60 years later these guys would still be rocking? Mind-blowing!

I saw this when it aired! I came home from first grade and my mom had this on. "Come look at this group, they're like the Beatles". Well..not exactly. I remember the giant polka dots vividly-- and being sort of confused by the band! Amazing that this has been preserved in such high quality after 50 years,
Thanks a lot for uploading!
That is so cool. I remember the Beatles on Ed Sullivan but mainly because my older sister made a scene about it all day. She took pictures of the TV screen.
Same thing with me, I came home from third grade.
Like the Beatles? Uh, I don't think so. These guys from London wanted to do a lot more with a female than to just "hold your hand."
@@lwmson Yeah, my mom certainly didn't get that!
@@lwmson The rollings are okay, but they're not the Beatles.
Brian Jones was the heart & soul of the group, but he damn sure didn't have Keith's tolerance for drugs. It's easy to hear the influence of southern Black performers on the group, and to their credit, they've always acknowledged that.
I've never seen this footage, it was adorable! 60 years later and they're still playing.
What???? Amazing stuff here honestly. Glad it still is available!!!
55 years later in 2019 they are the world's number 1 concert draw and money earners! The Rolling Stones have been around my entire life and I dig them big time!
They will never be better musicians than the Beatles
Oh Yes
@@nocheoscura1956 Beatles and Stones are two different entities. Both excellent and not comparable.
@@ryansetzer694 That's true. But it's like Mrs. Mia Wallace says, "You can like them both, but you can never like them both the same."
Yea. I have a shovel from that period ! Nomore !They WERE hot THEN !There was Chuck on his Gretsch !,Brooklyn that is ! Not just any Gretsch !
It's 2022 now but my most lovely musicians are Beatles, Rolling Stones and Doors. They are most talented in the modern music history.
The Stones were a whole different flavor
@@mavjimbo ya while covering CB's music. 😆
You should check out Cream, Ten Years After, and Humble Pie.
What about cream jack Bruce Eric clapton and ginger baker
They are legendary however they are just a little piece of the 60s 70s and 80s. Trying crown a handful not cool man not cool.
“Charlie what?” “Charlie Watts”😂
This is the only Stones line-up that worked. Brilliant combination of musical styles all in the same bag but unique. RIP Brian & Charlie. Bill your bass playing made the band.
Bill Wyman must have started on double bass , ❓️ 🩵
Nah, the Mick Taylor era is also great! You can't seriously be dismissing _Sticky Fingers_ , _Exile on Main Street_ and _Goats Head Soup_ !
Keith,Brian and Mick smokin hot back then. Mike Douglas was so aware but his show was on like min afternoon. Can you imagine back then 2 pm and watching this with grandma . Man the good old days from sure. My granny was one hip chick.
Just saw the Stones in Atlanta 2 weeks ago. Mick Jagger is amazing. RIP Charlie Watts.
Sheer raw talent in its infancy
M.J.whines through his nose,he's got nothin'.
Bull S... T, i bet you not there in the 60s it was the greatest Mick lovely lad.Student in London during that era and the music played in the background while i studied . Mick still going strong Aug 4th 2022 so am I. 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪💋💋💋💋💋☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧❤️❤️❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Mick looks like Don Knotts.
At this point, they sound like your average garage band.
@@jimbrew4529 Good point , because that is pretty much what that started out as.
Charlie... what??? Charlie Watts! The Stones at their finest... Bill Wyman was the c o o l e s t bass-player ever: the way he hold his bass was signature to the Stones image. Keiths' playing - look mam, no hands - was already there... Such a bunch of sweeties! STONED FOREVER!
And the stones still rock
How happy are we that there was video recording these 60's and 70's bands back in the day? Hearing these great bands is wonderful but seeing them sing it live or even lip synced is fantastic! It's hard to believe they are still performing.
PURE TALENT...STILL JAMMING... ALMOST SIXTY FREAKING YEARS LATER...LUV IT !!!
I was a mere 18 when the stones began to roll. Yikes. On tour worldwide right now.
When the band meets the girls, you have to realize - what we consider as eternally cool, people like the Stones CREATED. So you are living in the world that they made.
Very true. I was just thinking along those lines the other day. They made and changed history. Created fads, fashions, hairstyles, what to like and buy like Astin Martin's, mini cooper's, courvoisir or how you spell that. The list goes on.
Ll
They didn’t make cool. They appropriated everything from black musicians in the American south. The music, style and their moves. All of it. Just like Elvis, the Stones simply made it more palatable for white audiences. And the Stones would be the first to admit it.
In those days, the Rolling Stones were something attractive for the youth, in my opinion, because they were very young and they played, in terms of guitars and percussion, quite accurated R&B covers (even better, at covering R&B songs, than the Beatles) but soon they would realise they had to show they were also able to compose good songs, and at the begining, at composing, the Beatles were better than the Stones...
John Lennon called them "the greatest blues cover band"
This memory video is priceless, the Stones were born already geniuses and predestined to maintain their legend until the 21st century. God bless them. Brian and Charlie still rock with angels.
Whatever happened to Stu, their original keyboard player? He did not have the bad boy image the other guys had.
@@TheGuitarReb believe he became their tour manager and enjoyed his golf game, booking their hotels far away from the city so he could enjoy his golf, funny when you think about it 😅
and Ian Stewart
Proud to have been born in '64 but having lost half my parents 20 years later...yet the Stones keep on Rollin'. Life is strange...
"Lost half my parents."....don't think I've ever heard it phrased that way. Original.
The Stones doing Chuck Berry. Perfect. Nobody then could have ever imagined all that was to come: Aftermath, Satanic Majesties' Request, Beggar's Banquet, Let it Bleed, Sticky Fingers, and all the rest of the wild ride that playing-two-strings-next-to-each-other-together-at-the-same-time, jungle music would lead, and what a great ride it would be. Still the GREATEST ROCK AND ROLL BAND IN THE WORLD, THE ROLLING STONES!
The Stones doing Buddy Holly. Not too shabby, either.
@@starguy2718 yes!! Love the Buddy Holly reference and sound!
Most never thought they would last months much less years......the longevity is mind boggling......
Mick is The Rolling Stones. Total genius.
I'm sure you meant Keith!!
Danke für diese unglaubliche Erinnerung an die Anfänge der Stones.
When Keith was holding Gloria's hand, just how sweet, classy and affectionate is that ❤
That's Keith, a romantic and sweet guy.
The sheer joy on Bill Wymans face just makes it fun to watch
Rest in peace Charlie. Thanks for the music and memories.
Rock till you drop like Charlie.
The best Band forever and ever in the World ROLLING STONES THANK you so much For SHARING 👍💯👍
My opinion is Brian Jones was terrific and was the Stones. The scourge of drug addiction bit him. Nobody’s fault but his. RIP Brian.
Yep, Keith could handle it but Brian couldn’t.
He was an overrated asshole who loves to beat up women, Keith flattened his ass.
Back when there were only 3 channels to choose from the programs were of much higher quality. We have 300 channels now and nothing like Mike Douglas or Ed Sullivan.
Your right! That was huge to be on TV. Also do you notice they keep looking to the right. The Sponsors were telling them slow down your movements. A few times you could tell they wanted to let go !!!!
I love how Mike Douglas is more or less respectful even though he clearly thinks they're weird. A real contrast with how Dean Martin treated them
Douglas was ditzy but pretty class. I didn't get him at the time. TV programs were held to a somewhat higher standard back then because there weren't so many, more people tended to watch each show.
Back the Ed sullivan and shoes like this were the only way most kids could see their heros. It gave them a mystery and power that are not available in this overexposed social media age. Peter Grant understood this and so you had to come see Led Zeppelin live to see them.
We had more here in California plus UHF. Back then we could get bullfights from Tijuana.
Glad to still be here since I saw the Stones on every TV show and saw them live many times since 1962.🥃😎
What a great document of the very early days of the Stones.
Everything seems to be still new for them and the girls coming on stage are priceless.
The beginning phase of the greatest Rock'n Roll Band.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, NO daytime talk shows' roster of musical guests will ever compare with Mike's.
There were others?
@@howie9751 Precisely.
@@dantean I'm not sure you got what I meant...
@@howie9751 I was hoping I did and that you were not literally asking what other daytime talk shows were on television. Actually, what I should have written was that Mike's daytime show featured the hippest musical guests of ANY talk show--day or night, thereby expanding the comparison beyond, say, The Dinah Shore and Merv Griffin shows in the afternoons, to include Johnny Carson's Tonight Show as well as countless others at night. You can research the names yourself, but the genre's been around a long, long time.
Ed Sullivan Beatles/ Jim Morrison/ Elvis Presley. Sullivans got ya beat.
The shot of the bored housewife at about 5:25 after the line "I hear the telephone that hasn't rung" is priceless. This music was not intended for her generation!
'Mother's Little Helper', perhaps!
Amazing this video still exists, a real treat to see history I missed. EV 666 was a great microphone just hard to find plug for it now.
Good catch. They were actually playing too. Pretty cool.
@@dirtydave2691 Playing along with recordings, yea.
I used to drool over the thought of having an EV mic.
2 are mimed. 2 live
The Rolling Stones, thank goodness for the British Invasion 🇬🇧!!
Loving our old blues masters music and bringing it to the forefront for everyone to enjoy, forever. Much Respect. Hail! Hail! Rock ‘n’ Roll!! ❤🤘
They came to my little town in Minnesota that year too, to Big Reggie's Danceland in Excelsior! The next year I saw the Beatles play at Met Stadium in Bloomington and life was complete at the age of 17.
There was an interview with John Cougar Mellencamp back in the 1980's and he said "In his high school,back in the mid-1960's, there were two camps The Beatles camp and The Rolling Stones Camp.He said "That he was in The Rolling Stones Camp".
Michael Lantz is he really the best person you could come up with?
I’ve thought he would be in the Mellencamp😬..
I went for the Stones when I was 13 with Her Satanic Majesties Request. Left the Beatles behind.
that was true I was a Stones Camp
The Rolling Stones really got what it takes to be a big star. Talent!
I don't see it on television,now. Stones, as well as a few others ,are the pinnacle
Best show I saw, ever- Los Angeles coliseum - stones. - with George thorogood, j. Guides. Probably didn't spell that right ! Lol.
Mick Never missed a beat. Those old enough to remember the Mike Douglas show, well square as square could be back in 1964. What a great find. Look at Keith funny. Look at Chrlie's drum set
I just wanna say that Mike Douglas handled them gracefully and funny
Great Band, Great performance by 1964 standards. The Stones are cutting their teeth in this era and just starting their meteoric rise. I love how Bill Wyman plays the bass like an upright bass. I like the diversity of their sound at such an early stage. They are channeling Chuck Berry in the first song and what would become the Byrds or Mamas and Papas sound in the second song. It is funny in retrospect to how famous and ubiquitous the Stones have become the Mike didn't know their names.
I was eight years old when that came out had no idea I'd still be listening to Sir Mick over 50 years later
Oh, i remember i was 20 years old , my best memorys
Note the stage set. Funny. This is by far one of the greatest videos of early Stones on the net.
I love the young Rolling Stones with Brian Jones !
Brian is the coolest !
Here he plays the guitar , harmonica perfectly and moves superbly , his comments and jokes in interviews are very witty.
Brian Jones was the most convincing , very talented musician and a handsome guy with a good sence of humor.
It's a pity that he left this would young , 27 years is very little for such a gifted musician.
The whole world agree with you
Yes, gifted musician and a highly intelligent bloke.
I was shocked to learn TODAY that he was the group’s founder, original lead singer and named the group too.
I remember thinking back in the day that he looked out of place in the group because his hair was so light. SMH
Brian Jones was a boy woman beater and had an ego so huge he couldn't stand the competition. The Stones started to make real music after him
@@mozellhill6605 co-founder, but never the lead singer. And yes, he named the band while talking on the phone, booking a gig.
And to think the greatest band that ever existed was only 18 months young.
How precious is youth, can it even be measured.
The greatest band that ever existed had been together for years before this, and were at the top before the Stones broke through.
@@michaelharrington75 so who was that greatest band the world has ever known?
I really appreciate you sharing this video
Charlie and Billy's timing was perfect even back then. Solid.
wow mick is gorgeous
Yes,Mick is gorgeous. Ive been in love with him since I was 13 years old!!
This was so long ago Keith’s last name was still Richard.
Good catch there.
@@chasbodaniels1744 oh please
@Michael Wessner
He was most likely nervous about coming to America and playing and having to speak on the Mike Douglas Show from The Ed Sullivan Show.
The great sound of Brian Jones'harmonica.
Not Fade Away was written and first performed by Buddy Holly. That guy had such an influence.
I never ever heard the Stones were on the Mike Douglas show. He was a day time talk show. This is really amazing 👏 😍 ❤
Before Mike Douglas bought a himself , a toupee .
3:16 i love watching keith and charlie laugh at how badly they butchered the intro. playing to playback must suck for natural-born live performers
Just priceless, the crying girls... Long hair was such phenomena back then, as if it were biologically abnormal. Love that Brian Jones harmonica.
On today's talk/variety shows, a rock group might get one song and maybe a very, very brief interview.
Here, the 'Stones get almost 14 minutes, four complete songs, and an interview!
(Of course, for most of it's run, "The Mike Douglas Show" was 90 minutes each day; today, an hour is the standard length for this kind of program)
Isn't it amazing how they managed to fade out the end of the songs in a live performance?
It's extremely easy, just pull the volume down gently.
Second and forth songs mimed.
They’re lipsinking to a recording.
Jagger too far from the microphone..
@@violinmaker4271 "Carole" and "Not Fade Away" were not lypsynced.
Holy Crap...this was aired when I was a wee 5 years old. Im sure my mother was watching this while I was outside playing in the dirt.
😆😆😆
Just getting started!!! Mick Jagger has never stood this still on stage since. Imagine not knowing the names of The Rolling Stones members
Yea, like Charlie Watson.
Not very professional
Brian Jones is a phenomenal Harmonica player!
Brian Jones is DEAD
Brian Jones is dead since nearly 52 years!!!
@@NoName-tn1ut Yea, you know what that means don't you? I'm a better harmonica player than Brian Jones!
He was great at everything he played..
@@danielaschwarz1971 He was the guy who formed the Rolling Stones starting with an ad in the paper.
I just finished a book written by James Phelge, called' Nankering with the Rolling Stones, The Early Years'. Phelge lived with Brian, Mick and Keith when they first started out and he tells some really interesting and funny stories about how it was to live with these guys. They were pretty much just normal, quiet, unassuming young men who thought that they would maybe last a few years and die out. Who knew. If you want to know about the guys when they were in there early twenties before they blew up the icons they are today this is the book to read.
I read that, too. Anyone who likes the Stones should know what it was like before the got welcomed to the machine. Keith was the one who saw it coming first.
Nanker and Phelps was gene Pitney
Well Bill Wyman was a happily married man with a day job. Then it was found out he owned an amplifier. The Rolling Stones soon took care of his happy marriage and turned him on to drugs, alcohol, and groupie girls. Poor Bill always felt alone except for Charlie. That's because the Bass and drum work so closely together in a band. He quit the band because he did not want his new love to be around those "crazy" guys. Ironic because he was the most crazy of them all!
Funny book...just guys being gross...like a college dorm... 😂
Oh my 😍ty 💋mick was so damn young and adorable but the best came when they all cut loose n got their true groove on 🎶🖤🎶
~dying laughing with that interview bit~quite embarrassing how the girls were so emotional and guys pretty shy there~lol
All good and great share xx
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
That audience teen reaction- PRICELESS. I didn’t recognize any of the other guests on stage. They were probably all freaked out
I particularyly liked the invisable tamborine player
Edward Schoenman except for Brian they are All remarkably UGLY!!!
Michael Turner oi, Keef was hot as hell
`i remember some of the drummers had a ring tamborine on the hi-hat, or just lip sync the whole thing.
@TermsofService yes, but it seemed like alot of the rock groups on tv were exactly like the records we bought. no miss-takes.
@TermsofService YOU are correct sir, YES!!!
💕💕💕A perfectly beautiful retro sound that feels the spirit of the 1960s💕💕💕
Really dig Tell Me. Scorcese used it in his "Mean Streets" in 1973.
The early Stones, doing what they could do so fantastically well : laying down exciting Rhythm and Blues, and reminding America, perhaps, of these great pioneers of R and B who had given them their inspiration, originators such as Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley and Buddy Holly.
Without the first and second British Invasions (Beatles/Stones, etc., then
Cream/Hendrix/Who/Zep, et al), Rock&Roll as we know it was going to be
dead or dying. The energy and pure excitement of 1956-57 through 1960
was being replaced by the crap of the early 60's. I know. I grew up through
that and kids were getting bored with it by 1961. The surf craze and Beach
Boys were the only real rock&roll out there. Until The Beatles. The rest is
history. It's so ironic that the English groups were saviors to the greatest
American cultural music of all time - Rock And Roll, which came from The
Blues. Not that Jazz was unimportant, I don't mean that. But R&R was the
catapult to modern American culture of the 20th Century.
Agree. Also, technology happened at the right time as did politics and commerce i.e. Top 40 v FM. Without FM starting in '69 for real WBCN in Boston etc - you were not going to HEAR Cream, Hendrix,King Crimson, Vanilla Fudge, Savoy Brown, Ten Years After, Van Der Graf Generator, Groundhogs, Hawkwind or Taj Mahal etc. for that matter....
WBCN (The Rock Of Boston) was the greatest radio station of my
fellow Bostonian rock music lovers' lifetime. And you are totally right
about the influence of those stations. 'BCN came on the air at 12:00
AM, March 15, 1968. It was the second real progressive FM station
after KMPX, San Francisco, which had begun the year before. It took
over the call letters of Boston Concert Network, a classical FM
station, and began it's story by playing Cream's "I Feel Free" as the
first song. That was also one of the last two songs played when it
went off the analog airwaves in 2009. It finally disappeared from even
the digital domain in January, 2016. WBCN-FM ruled the Boston and
New England airwaves and deservedly so. There are stations like this
on satellite (sort of) but none exist like this for free anymore. Isn't it
a pity, as George Harrison would say? 'BCN was a huge part of my
life and those of my friends as young and older adults. Good post,
my friend. A quick trip to the wiki page of WBCN (FM) gives a fine
overview on that station's history. It was a broadcasting giant.
May I say Fuckin' Aye. I lived in Concord MA taking lunches via bicycle by Louisa May Alcott's grave diggin' 'BCN in '70 playing Beatles "Get Back" tapes which a few months later became Let It Be and Macca's 1st solo LP BEFORE they were officially released-Charles Laquidera and the WBCN boys were bustin' out the complete un-Spectorized shitload of BEATLES when nobody else at the time had the tapes - priceless- don't even get me going about the Boston Tea Party venue........
I lived in the NYC metro market, in the 60s and 70s, and the progressive FM stations there began with WOR-FM 98.7. Six months later, ownership tightened up their playlist, freeing a path for the powerhouse WNEW-FM 102.7 to take over as the coolest game in n town for the next decade. Best jocks, the least-restricted playlist, the first to air interesting new artists and the newest “Things From England” each Friday afternoon with Scott Muni. College stations filled in the musical gaps by playing stuff a bit too uncommercial for WNEW FM. *A golden era.*
First song live, second lip synced the radio hit, then back to live. Those girls are probably pushing 80, they've had a hell of story to tell for their whole life time.
This was quite the popular afternoon TV show....my mom loved it. It was one of the few nationally popular shows base in Philadelphia. Naturally, the Stones were something very unusual and different....but old Mike brought them on, gave them time for several songs, and did an interview. He could have made a little more effort to know the names and the names of the songs. It all seems condescending to modern viewers, but it was really quite extraordinary that he gave them this positive exposure.
Mike Douglas had a lot of good acts on Hendrix, Joplin, Lennon to name a few
@@Jiggs2u2 He was still in Cleveland at the time
@@greggsheaffer2521 Thanks. Didn't know that... "The Mike Douglas Show ... aired its first Philadelphia-based show on August 30, 1965."

The Wikipedia article is amazing. It says Sly of the Family Stone almost got into it with Muhammad Ali (wonder who'd have won), that James Brown had a heated argument with David Suskind. I remember John and Yoko being on the show, but not that they were on for a whole week. It's amazing who open these old guys were and how the disagreements seem to have been real between the greats, not theater like the clown shows of today.
*
American Bandstand also came out of Philly. And lots of great records were made at RCA in Camden in the early days, from 1901!!! Checking my memory I found out that the label RCA Camden would reissue classical recordings, but change the names of the orchestras. They made up names based on Philadelphia hotels so they wouldn't compete with the higher priced ones.
@@mikem668 but I think this show was broadcast in 1964 so must have been made somewhere else no?
@@chairlesnicol672 Yes, Cleveland. Another commenter pointed it out. I thought Douglas was always done from Philadelphia.
The Mike Douglas Show was an afternoon talk show that was popular until the early 1980's.
He had a lot of good groups on his show, used to watch it when I came home from school. One of the first albums I bought too, it was shown.
Great to see old footage of the original lineup, when the Stones were just starting, as Mick said they were only together 18 months at that time. Very cool!
