    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.

    One of the most legendary performances from the Sullivan show! The musical "Man of La Mancha", the story of Don Quixote, was struggling to find an audience when Sullivan went to see it. He loved it and devoted 11 minutes to the musical on this episode and featured three songs. This exposure caused the show to take off. The performances left a big impression on audiences when first aired, and my grandfather mentioned it many times while I was growing up. I will tell him about this post (which, actually, I do about most of the posts anyway :)). This is where the song "The Impossible Dream" originated. Another part of this performance was posted over a year ago here and can be found by looking for "Man Of La Mancha (I, Don Quixote)". Thank you for this great performance!

      Thank you for your wonderful comments. My late mother was a huge fan of Richard Kiley and I think it was mostly because of this performance. Some people only know Richard Kiley from his guest-starring role on Columbo as a villain so I'm so glad that this performance is posted.

      @@jasonplatt2228 You're welcome, and thank you for your kind response! I don't think there are too many videos of Kiley posted, and this is one reason why the Sullivan archive is so important. It holds a lot of rare footage of seldom-seen performers. It's wonderful that this video is available now to show his talents!

      I question if that is Joan Diener; the original Aldonza/Dulcenea. She looks too young.
      Diener was on Broadway in the early 50s.
      Plus the voice at the end doesn't sound anything like the OBC recording.

      @@obscureshowtunes In the one part of this segment that has not been uploaded yet, Joan sings "What Do you Want From Me?" from the musical. Several sources state her appearance on this episode, so I'm guessing if that part is uploaded, you will see that it is her. From my research, I have found this Sullivan performance is one of the only videos of the original cast.

    This was written for him and you tell when you hear anyone else attempt to sign it. Perhaps James Morris might to do it as well but it is for a bass and any further up the register just doesn't work..

      Kiley was supposed to be in the movie.
      I believe he was already signed up.
      Then the production changed directors, producers, and I believe shooting location.
      And Kiley was dropped.
      In an interview years later he said he was so angry, he went to his Connecticut home and chopped wood for hours.
