The amazing Larry O’Brien on the short trombone solo. He later led the Glenn Miller Orchestra for 30 years. Was a fine trombonist right to his retirement.
I would love to see legendary Big Band singer Helen Forrest sing "Just One of Those Things" and "I Had the Craziest Dream" with the Tommy Dorsey orchestra on this episode.
Wow !!! Amazing, beautiful video ... thanks for sharing !!! Please don't forget the Latino singers, especially " Los 5 Latinos ", they performed on the Ed Sullivan show on May 10, 1964 ... thank you !!!
This was one of the criticisms Jr. got, that he sang songs too closely associated with his father. While today we can see it as a sort of tribute to his dad, it was probably not the right route to take if he wanted to be successful on his own. He did sing, and write, songs that were different, but he never got out from under Sr.'s shadow like Nancy was able to.
There’s only one original piper (the third male) and the guy on the far right is from the Modernaires who I guess were rivals or contemporaries to the Pipers, how ironic.
Well said! One can be proud of their dad, of course, but he tried to BE his dad. That's sad, really messed up. He even referred to him as "Sinatra" instead of "my dad." Tina and Nancy Jr. found their own niches though.
Wow ! Do my eyes fool me ? Is that Ralph Brewster------one of THE original ' Modernaires ', on the far right ? That's him ------I'm positive ! ------------What a great rendition. -------I think I saw this , but as it was on, I wasn't paying close attention. -----4 days after my 17th B-Day, I was a HS senior in Denver, at South High School.

im not good at explaining stuff so im just gonna copy paste this here This song was written by a Toronto-based songwriter named Ruth Lowe, who composed it out of the despair she felt when her husband, Harold Cohen, died in 1939 after an operation went wrong (in glorified tales of this story, Cohen was a Canadian fighter pilot who was killed in action). Lowe's sentiment was that she could never love another, or even laugh again, since her true love was killed. To give the song a more universal appeal, she made it about a breakup, including the lines: Tears would fill my eyes My heart would realize That our romance is through
It was his father's first hit record. ("All Or Nothing At All" was recorded earlier, but didn't become a hit until later.) Frank Jr. had also been occupying his father's old chair in the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra.
Yeah, but he liked the music and being in his fater's shadow didn't bother him. Later conducting for his dad was something he truly enjoyed him not craving the spotlight..
He sounds just like his father on those harmonies, I like to imagine Frank Sr. was proud
Fr those harmonies I can hear 1940 Frank woww
@@llamaluna999well you realize young frank was a lighter softer voice
@@Cruz_ignatius no shit

His voice is disturbingly smooth how the hell did he not make it? Damn.
Probably bc he was the son of the biggest artist at the time
@@llamaluna999his dad overpowered his talent and voice
He at least helped his father a lot on his later years
@@mohammed_2939 he sure did
Because he tried to be his father’s clone.
Outstanding !!!!!!!! He never got his due respect … JR !!!!! You are fabulous !
Idk what anyone says I love Frank jr he had much respect for his dad and all he wanted to do was be like him
Frankie jnr had a lovely rich voice and his breath control is perfect. He was a very underrated singer.
Wonderful harmony!
Imagine generations of Frank Sinatra’s just filling their father’s role as a singer after they die
I wishhhh
I would love to see legendary Big Band singer Helen Forrest sing "Just One of Those Things" and "I Had the Craziest Dream" with the Tommy Dorsey orchestra on this episode.
That’s something I really need to see.
great job;-)

Thank you, Ed Sullivan Show RUclips, for covering up my grandfathers face with your thumbnail! You Mike wazoskied my grandpa Lee Gotch!
The male members of the Pied Pipers are from left to right: Lee Gotch, Clark Yocum and Ralph Brewster
@Croonr1
I immediately recognized Ralph Brewster from the Modernaires.
with female member Jeanne McManus. Clark Yocum had been a member of the quartet for 23 years by this time.
1963...was he a teenage heart throb at that time?
Always too willing to stand in his dad’s shadow.
Well said!

Definitely him! Noticed it right away.
What inspired them to do that song?

frank jr had talent but didnt have the charisma his dad did. he is unique on his own. here he sounds like early 40s frank Sr.
Well young Sinatra has a high voice 😂😂😂
He should have changed his name and did something different or a different style of music. There's only room for one Frank...
Agree but remember they were close.
Yeah, but he liked the music and being in his fater's shadow didn't bother him. Later conducting for his dad was something he truly enjoyed him not craving the spotlight..
Who was the gorgeous babe ?
The female Pied Piper here is Jeanne McManus.
AN UNUSUAL FIND...NOT SURE WHAT TO MAKE OF IT...NOT TERRIBLE IS ABOUT ALL....
I prefer the father
Mc8 killed nip music
