There's so little footage available from the early years, this is just fantastic.
This is simply incredible and fantastic to see! I’m so glad they were somehow recorded and preserved. Any fan of The Tonight Show starring Johnny Carson is absolutely thrilled to see these old black and white recordings of the shows from New York. PLEASE keep them coming! 🥳🥳
This is awesome and historic! I was fortunate enough to see the beginning of the Beatles and the British invasion. I watched the Beatles live on the Ed Sullivan Show in February of 1964. In my opinion they're the GREATEST Band in Rock history...
The items Johnny is showing are collector's items and are worth a lot of money.
The Beatles can't be beat.
Feb 1964 is the beginning of the beatles 😂😂😂
@@Streamingstuff-qq3vw uhm no. That's when they came to the USA... Duh...
@@Bear_58
True, but in all fairness, it's when they were finally invited to perform in America that John Lennon said they knew that they had "made it."
@@Streamingstuff-qq3vw
Put a "B" on that, bro! 😂
Wow what a gem….ty for listing this …love Johnny and the Beatles
I was ten years old on January 24 1964 and watched the Ed. Sullivan show on Sunday Feb.9 1964 with my mom and dad . I had heard a few songs on the radio in 1963 by THE BEATLES! 👀❤ so i wanted to see them on television . I have been a fan ever since those years . ....... THE BEATLES! FOREVER 👀❤ - So long from Canada - 10/5/2024 🤠
Watching Johnny wear a Beatle wig is a real treat. Yeah, yeah, yeah!
The Kook wig was more accurate than the official one.
That's what I was thinking.The official looked like a cap
The Beatles are "!kooks"?
Priceless footage
WOW! This was when The Tonight Show was still in N.Y and ran hour and half! Thanks for showing/ saving this ❣️
Johnny was probably on his 1st wife then 😁
Hour and 45 minutes!
The show still ran 90 minutes when it moved to Burbank, CA.
I don't think the show changed the 90-minute run time until sometime in 1980. During the early days in new york, and I think this show is probably in that era, there was a pre-show that ran for about 15 minutes. I think it was mostly the band and Ed.
@@grggsctt Were I came from, it ran 10:30pm to 12:00am. Until later, when he went to the hour format!
Best of luck Beatles. Johnny Carson elevating someone to stardom once again
Elevating. 😊
Sullivan did that, not Carson.
At the time not many knew whether they would make it long in the US.
Success in one part of the world doesn't always translate to another
@@jamesm.3967 correct, good catch
@@BackWordsJane so true
This is phenomenal! We can now only imagine what it would have been like if The Beatles had been booked on The Tonight show back then or even when they toured again in '65 or '66. Mr Carson would have been the best host to interview them! And then there was May of '68 which was, tragically, a entirely different story all together.
If Johnny only would have known how big the Beatles would become.. Johnny Carson invited the Beatles to the show. Lennon and McCartney accepted the invitation only to be greeted by Joe Garagiola. Johnny didn`t bother to show up. Johnny met Paul McCartney in the 1980`s when he came on the Carson show to promote a solo album. Carson showed up for that one. I don`t think Carson ever met John Lennon.
I remember when McCartney was a guest on Tonight. There seemed to be tension between the two as McCartney ribbed Carson about his Beatles "No show."
@@tomchris60 John Lennon described the Carson experience as one of the most embarrassing thing he had ever done. He thought Joe Garagiola asked really dumb questions. John also felt insulted that Johnny didn`t show. I`m sure Paul agreed with John. John and Paul were the biggest stars in the world in the 1960`s, and Johnny didn`t even bother to show up when they did his show..
Surprisingly classless of Johnny imo.@@yellyman5483
@@tomchris60 Paul pointed out on that show that Johnny was not popular in England. Tension indeed.
Johnny said in the interview with Paul he met John and Ringo.
Fabulous...thank you for putting this up, and leaving the plug in at the end.
Wow what a treat! ❣️
It's great to see the early Carson so many of those tapes were lost
Like you, I regret the loss of episodes from the first ten years of the Carson era. However, it's likely that some episodes from that period might not have been worth preserving, on tape or on film. Maybe Johnny's monologues might have fallen flat, or the guests might not have been very interesting.
The Best Rock´n´Roll Band of the Mankind History.....Allways 4ever
3:42 That price tag is giving me Minnie Pearl flashbacks.
I loved the early days of The Tonight Show when Johnny was in New York City! 🗽
Carson: "Beatles T-Shirt? Four Dollars" Audience "Wow, ohh, boo, unbelievable" 2024 "$90, lasts two washes"
I wonder what the first one goes for today.
That’s $40 today!
That t-shirt alone would he worth a thousand bucks or more today! All that merch woud be worth a small fortune. 😮
My girlfriend just got a Ringo Starr tour jacket… $100
What a find!
Great spot! Johnny and Ed were dynamite!
I hope all the lost episodes are recovered somehow!
I will pray for America.
Please pray for me.
God Bless you.
The first video uploaded in many months to show an original opening theme sequence. Hopefully more to come.
How did this survive the NBC tape destruction?
@pronemanoldbutyoung5548 This is a kinescope of the show, but the actual tape was destroyed. We have a few kinescopes like this from the 60's but not many.
@@johnnycarson Thank you for doing that!
Dumbest thing they ever did.....
@@johnnycarson Thanks so much for this gem!
Funny stuff 😂 Poking fun at the hoopla being made over the Beatles
That sweatshirt and tee shirt well preserved is worth alot of money today
In Oct. 1962, I was at NBC Studios, NYC, & wanted to see the "Tonight Show" with brand new host,
Johnny Carson! Unfortunately, at age 16, I couldn't get in & had to settle. to being in the audience
of "The Price is Right" & other shows! I never saw Johnny, but did see Ed McMahon at NBC Studios,
Burbank, in 1979 & actually met Johnny's brother, Dick, in Honolulu, Hawaii in '91! Great memories!
The older generation gibes at the Beatles here were mild compared to some from back then. What bemused me was Ed confusing Moe with Curly from the 3 Stooges.
Amazing someone captured this. I always wondered what Carson’s take was on the Beatles arriving in America in 64.
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah!!!
Look how young Ed looked. 😊
They had no idea the pop culture tsunami that was about to hit and literally change the world forever!
Insane that this clip survived! A piece of history.
These are the days of my youth. I have an album, that’s it. I didn’t go nuts like many. It was wild.
Carson- the best. Back when we had real entertainment.
The cook wig looks better.
Kook
Wish I had kept all my Beatle goodies!😊
The “kook” wig was way better than the “official” Beatles wig.
Where can I order?
Ah, the days when rock and roll was ridiculed by mainstream entertainers. Now anything to cash in on the latest hot act is perfectly okay. Commercialism is number one an we're all used to it.
The talk shows back then, including this one had paid product placements by the host of the show. Commercialisation is not a new thing.
Ed Sullivan mentioned that the Beatles dedicated their performance to Johnny Carson. It's all on the dvd of The Beatles 1st 4 performance s.
they weren't laughing for long..... and give that girl in the audience credit for her (very early) support!
Johnny wasn't doing it to be mean spirited.He was a talk show comedian and just getting some laughs .I'm sure many of the older generations didn't take rock n roll acts seriously.
Just some good fun here and I'll be he would've given anything to have gotten them on his show.
He did have Ringo and Paul guest appear years later
Just checked - an original sweat shirt for sale $550.
And the crowd balked at 5$.
and the T-shirt is $40 in today's dollars
That is the price of a regular T-shirt today, thanks to Joe Bidet.
He mentioned their songs at the end saying he heard them and that he thought they were good. Wished them best of luck. Showing the merchandise was for comedic purposes which is what the show would do before bringing out guests. I thought he was very good because at this time no one knew what was about to happen and it was basically the teenagers that were paying the most attention. I grew up during this time period and the adults looked at it as a novelty. Johnny understood something big was about to happen
"The fellas should make it while they can..." Famous last words!
BeatleMania was legitimately everywhere in 1964.
Interesting how times change.
Ed was the Robert Frost of his day.
They had no idea how popular the Beatles were going to be.
Well said
The Beatles had no idea either…😮
I think Jack Parr showed the first clip of the Beatles on American TV on Jan. 3 1964.
I thought they came on flight 909... 🛫
Move over once... move over twice.. come on baby don't be cold as ice 🎸🥁
I was three years old when this was broadcast.
I was negative 11 years to be born, but I know this time in America was the calm before the Storm. ✌️😺👍
@@stpstudiosI was 11 when this show broadcasted.
Those shirts and wigs are worth thousands of dollars in 2024.
What is known to be the earliest surviving video from his run?
Everything that Johnny held up is worth thousands now. $$$$ 😊
What amazed me is they already had the merchandise ON THE SHELFS ready for sale & they even had "knock offs"WOW!!!!! & NOTHING CHANGED BACK THEN A 90 CENT T SOLD FOR $4 TODAY A $3 T SELLS FOR $30....YA. YA YA 😂😂😂😂
5 bux for a beatles sweatshirt. and considered pricey. imagine that.
i know......that's how much money has lost value..$5 was a ton o money back then...now it's hardly nothin'......dennis the menace, when mr wilson gave him a dime.....he was "a rich kid" in the neighborhood...........
$5 in 1964 is the equivalent of $43 purchasing power today
A t-shirt for 90 cents?! What happened?!
Unlimited printing of paper dollars
@@nb2008nc That can be one cause, but most price inflation is the result of increasing demand.
Your earnings went up!
Man, the prices in those days.....
Salaries were much lower as well so it’s all relative.
@@jeank5410 Doesn't't help people on fixed incomes. That's what's so insidious about inflation.
A time when I used to enjoy seeing the "word from our sponsor". I remember the Beatles coming to America. I wondered what all the fuss was about....😁
So many who criticized the Beatles then, now look like fools. But Johnny was such class! Of course he made fun of them, but none of the jabs were mean-spirited.
The wigs could have been labeled 1964 and 1965. And anyone still in possession of these items would now say they were a bargain at those prices!!
Thanks for this bit of Beatle memorabilia as shown genuine Johnnie Carson Tonight Show…👍😀!
Now if had only kept that Beatle memorabilia like new how much would it be worth today…😮😂! I’d settle for buying a new plain tee-shirt for 79 cents. Where have the prices gone?
Have a great day!
Five dollars for a sweatshirt, outrageous
Make it while they can??? 😅. They changed the entire world. They’re influence still felt 60 + years later
February 6,:1964.
Thank you JS!
I wonder if those Beatles turned out to be any good....
What did the girl say about the nightshirt? I think she said, "I'll wrestle you for it!"
Johnny says “You’ve got one? Well get out of it”. And I think the girl says something like “I’m topless though under it..”?
I had one of the Beatle's wigs. Somehow it was probably thrown out about 30 years back.
WOW! I never knew this record of Carson talking about The Beatles existed. Of course, who can forget that horrible interview Joe Garagiola did with Lennon & McCartney in Carson's absence.
The knockoff wig looked more like their hair than the official one
Thare hair…where hair?
Carson seems to be shocked by the concept of merch ?
ha ha...they thought it was a fad that was gonna last a month
the Gimbel's Kook wig was actually way more realistic than that nasty lookin' official mop. I still have some of my official Beatle swag from back in '64 to present - even worked at 'the tower' for a while. Best time to grow up. Of course every gen says that but if you were about to bust a nut in '64 - you basically saw how and where everything EVERYTHING today started, period, the end. It sin't bias if it's truth. 🎸
The prices are fascinating. Gasping at $4 for a non-plain tee shirt.
That would be about $40 today.
Hi 😊
Incredible find! Anyone know what that stuff is worth?
Footage of Jack & Reiko from that airing available? Read all the books way back when . . .
😂😂 funny 😁 stuff
Little did they know what was about to happen
They should have appeared on Johnny. Too bad.
I'm trying to look up who the other guests were, as I've never heard of any of them. Marion who?
Miriam Makeba, an incredible singer from South Africa who often appeared on US tTV (and recorded, ala Harry Belafonte).
Monologue cut?
As well as the rest of the 1.5 hour episode after this segment.
The early program had two openings -- one at 11:15 with the monologue, and another at 11:30 with Johnny at the desk. This is just the later opening.
In the 60s, stations that aired a half-hour late newscast would skip Johnny's monologue, and join at 11:30, with Ed giving a second intro, as the network came out of a break. Johnny strongly disliked that, and eventually wouldn't go on until 11:30. Finally, NBC cut 15 minutes from the show, and everyone had Johnny's monologue.
$5 then is around $50 today, that would be a bargain compared to some of the merch they sell nowadays
@@BrianONEILL-qf2cs That's interesting to know, thank you!
79 cents for a t shirt
That's a $50 t shirt.
GRIST! I thought he went to college.
Truly capitalism at its best!!🐸
I’m so glad someone recorded these and held onto them! Because according to Johnny, the film didn’t survive.
Most of them don’t, a few scattered kinescopes here and there don’t amount to a lot.
Can you imagine what the Beatles clothing items would be worth today if someone bought one then and took good care of it? First editions! This is a great clip!
The wig looks like a Russian ushanka hat
Johnny Carson thinks he's being clever and smart, in reality, he missed The Beatles and why they mattered, it had nothing to do with their hair or their merchandise, it had to do with their music. Does he say a single thing about their albums? their songs? no.
Rock n Roll was for kids…not adults over 25
Hey imbecile: their first album had only been released for a couple of weeks! What do you think, Johnny Carson was on top of The Beatles in January of 1964? You know what your problem is, doofus? You've been given too many Beatle books for Christmas. What an absolute imbecile. You think you know about 1964, but you're actually a complete imbecile who has been in his basement way too long jerking off to Mark Lewhisohn. Grow up, you frickin' embarrassment.
Notice that the audience didn't really care before they arrived. Anyway the early Beatles were boy band pop rubbish. I only took interest when they started doing deeper stuff around '66.
$5 = $50 in 2024
