This is fascinating to see in 2023, wish I would have seen it in 1987, these guys are terrific..❤️❤️
You rarely get to see songwriters perform their songs...great to see!! Thx!! 👍😁
I would have loved to have hung around with those guys! Mind you, Mike, at 90, is still with us.
Thanks Don, this is fantastic. And the lesson is there is nothing without the words. Nothing. Love these guys, - writers write and singers sing. Then came Dylan and the Beatles and nothing has ever been the same.
Great! This is first time I see Lieber and stoller in person. Very impressive. Great songwriters.
Must have been an absolute treat for the audience... two songwriters responsible for the soundtrack of their childhoods!
Great to see this. Both had a great sense of humour. I always mainly associate them with the Coasters and the Drifters on Atlantic more than anyone else, the stuff that I grew up listening to when I was still a child.
Mike Stroller W'50 graduate of Belmont High School Los Angeles, honored this year 2022 at the BMI awards (Broadcast Music Inc.)
Thank you so much Don! You always come through! This was fantastic.
I just met Mike Stoller ….Great guy..got a picture with him He’s 88 now My band played at Garden Grove Main Street An Elvis tribute all day long Just before he went home 🏠 he agreed to a photo with me He signed my friends vintage Beatles album and bass I asked jokingly if he wouldn’t mind writing us a song real quick on the bass and he laughed it off It was all too cool 😎
Jerry Lieber, the one singing in green, would be 87 today. Luckily this was before the later Late Show policy of forced applause signs after every word.
Marvellous men.
'Just tell your hoodlum friends outside you ain't got time to take a ride' ahahaha... they were the comedians of oldtime rock n roll, especially with the Coasters
can hear why they wrote songs for other performers, not very good singers, but those songs are classics!
Colonel Parker ruined Elvis as Elvis with these two legends in their own right were an amazing combination...
Leiber and Stoller great!
THAT was supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!!
Freddie Bell & The Bellboys (who appeared in "Rock Around The Clock") recorded "Hound Dog" in 1955. It was this version that inspired the Presley record.
And they received nothing because they didn’t ask for permission. 😢
Wonder what Big Mama Thornton thought, then...
Nice ... real nice!
great!
Rock legends
Jerry and Mike were born within a month of each other in early 1933. They would have been about 54 years old here.
I once had an audio recording of an episode where Leiber & Stoller were supposed to be guests but got bumped. I can only remember two things:
* Dave has the opening sequence (I think) play silently before pausing it to say "Doesn't that look like the opening to Miami Vice?"
* Dave remarks that "LeiberStoller" sounds like a brand of foreign (German or Swedish, can't remember which one) chocolate, leading to him and Paul talking about LeiberStoller with accents. Later, Dave responds to one of Paul's remarks with "Just for that...you're not getting any LeiberStoller."
This ring a bell for you, Don?
Not yet. I didn’t note that they had been bumped, so it’d be needle/haystack time.
Story goes as I remember. They were in the recording studio and while they were waiting on Ben E King., They came up with melody and bass line for Stand By Me. Ben E King wrote the words. He put down Spanish Harlem song also
Spanish Harlem was Jerry, Ben E. and Spector... about Ronnie Bennett (Spector)...
@@blossomgardner2297 Correct my friend. I'm gonna be doing podcasts and shows so we can discuss the history. I hope u join me. I actually live exactly where Phil Spector grew up.
Stand by me was written by Ben E King! They just added their 10 cents and names of publishing. It’s too funny to watch ‘em how they got a nerve to perform it
@@jessadem2345 , is that so? Were you at the recording session? Exactly what do you mean by ten cents? Composition of the song was attributed 50 percent King, 25 percent Leiber, 25 percent Stoller.
@@jamesngetha6760 song was written not in studio. But by Ben himself, later they added bass in studio n stuff😁

EXCELLENT Upload Don, as are all in that glorious stereo sound!
Random question: I just watched a Late Show episode from 8/8/94. David brings in from a payphone a Russian woman, and cracks a bottle of vodka and they both drink. Do you think it was real vodka? I recall Dave saying he gave up alcohol in the 80s and only consumed it again when Murray handed him a bottle during the recording of the final show that he thought was a fake.
It wasn’t real vodka.
@@dongiller Due to network regulations or Dave's regulations?
Douglas Thompson Dave’s.
Personally, I was disappointed with how short a time he chatted to them. C'est la vie. No time more ads, rush rush rush.....
And brushed right by Big Mama Thornton. On to the White singer!......
What would popular music sound like without the folks from the Brill Building.
The Brill building of talented song writers and producers! Carole King, Gerry Geffen, Leiber & Stoller, Phil Spector just to name a few of those who have written and produced some of the best music.
No Elvis tunes in their medley? I wonder if Elvis had rights to them (even though the guys wrote them) and they weren't allowed without permission.
Hound dog
Hound dog
The Colonel messed up business with them on some level. I forget the story. They would of kept writing for Elvis. Again Thanks. fake Colonel Tom Faker.
Didn’t Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil write On Broadway?
They did, then collaborated with Leiber and Stoller. See Wiki on the song.
Mann/Weil/Leiber/Stoller
I prefer Mike Stoller to Jerry Leiber. Leiber seemed to hold some type of grudge against Elvis Presley where Mike Stoller always gives Elvis credit for his singing ability.
There were a lot of stories that they could have shared about their experiences with Elvis that weren't told during this interview...but they do discuss more during subsequent interviews else where.....This was too short of a sit down segment unfortunately....but still golden because they sand their songs...
Not the best singers but they were the best writers
