    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.

    “Blueberry Hill” was actually an oldie even in 1956. It goes all the way back to 1940 when it was recorded many times by artists such as Gene Krupa, Glenn Miller, and Gene Autry and Louis Armstrong a bit later.

      No such thing as charted “hits”. There’s thousands upon thousands of songs that have charted and weren’t hits. Fats was amazing. Great catalog. But he doesn’t have more “hits” than Chuck and Little Richard. Just not true. Maybe he technically charted more, but there’s so many variables in that stat. Fats had 11 top ten hits, Chuck had 15 and Little Richard had 14.

    • @iharpo9292

      remember that Fats had more commercial success than Chuck or Little Richard because he leaned into a presentation that was "palateable" for white people of the time. Not taking credit away from him, and he made great music, but he also made sacrifices for commercial success

    Domino was present among an audience of 2,200 people at Elvis Presley's first concert at the Las Vegas Hilton on July 31, 1969. At a press conference after the show, when a reporter referred to Presley as "The King." Presley gestured to Domino, who was watching the scene. "No," Presley said, "that's the real king of rock and roll."

      Ricky Nelson's break through came with Fats Domino's I'm Walkin. They were both signed to Imperial Records. One of Ricky's final tours was with Fats Domino 1985. Rick passed away, way before Fats, but may they both rest in peace and be singin together in heaven. Peace, Michael Angelo

    That smile was so much a part of Fats Domino. If this appearance on TESS was truly solo, The Ray Bloch Orchestra did a good job of emulating Dave Bartholomew's band, though the drummer was hitting the snare more like a carpenter to my ears.

    Bo Diddly did a one night concert in the side bar at the Old Jamison Inn in Canberra in the late 1980s. Someone in the small crowd asked him to sing Blueberry Hill. He refused. Said "Only one man can sing that song. My old friend Fats. He the Man!". Bo sat at the bar until 2am chatting to us. He said Fats was the finest gentleman and a true friend. One of a kind❤️🖤

    Fats Domino had a longer list of chart records than most of the rock and roll legends, but incredibly, he was only on the Ed Sullivan show twice! Of course, Ed didn't go for the heavier rock and roll much during the '50's, as Chuck Berry was never on the show, and Jerry Lee was only on once in the late '60's, but never when he was really wild. Little Richard also never appeared on the Sullivan show, and Bill Haley and Buddy Holly were only on twice, the same as Domino. Fats had a tamer sound than most of the rock and rollers (but a very distinctive, joyful and infectious sound), and maybe partly as a result of this, he had more hits than the rest (besides Elvis, of course).
    In the '60's, there were also plenty of top record stars who were never on the Sullivan show; Gene Pitney, Bobby Vee, Del Shannon, Johnny Tillotson, etc, never appeared. Even Roy Orbison and Dion were only on once. Ed rarely had girl groups on his show (except for the older more adult groups like the McGuire Sisters, the Chordettes, the Andrews Sisters) until the Supremes came along. The Angels were one of the few exceptions, and they were only on once and only performed one song.

    Here's a true story for ya...Fats went to see Elvis play in Vegas (circa 1970). After the show Elvis was chatting to an interviewer backstage while Fats hung around chatting to people. The interviewer referred to Elvis being the King of Rock 'n' Roll, Elvis basically said "No, man" - he pointed to Fats and said "THAT'S the king of Rock 'n' Roll, right there". This genuinely happened, I'll try and find the source/interview.
