I was eating in a restaurant in Los Angeles, when a customer passed by my horseshoe shaped booth as he was exiting the facility. He looked directly into my eyes...he knew, that I knew who he was. We both smiled (I smiled like the devoted fan I am) and it was just a private exchange where no words were spoken, or were necessary. Beautiful memory!
As a huge fan of Vince's, I truly thank you for sharing this beyond special memory. You related your experience so vividly. It made me feel as if I was there, too.
I bought his "I Got The World" CD from Amazon, and I love it. I used "Who Will You Be With Tonight" for my video tribute to him. So handsome, talented and sexy! RIP Vince.
This is rare. Thanks so much for posting this. It shows Vince as the warm, genuine, class guy he is. Distributors take notice! Release his tv series on dvd. Ben Casey and Matt Lincoln. He is so missed and beloved by his fans.
Angela Carleton OMG!!! Thanks for that memory Bec I forgot about that! YES!! The Ben Casey Shirts!! As a matter of fact I'm going straight to Amazon now to see if they carry it!! But I Do remember running to the grocery store when I knew his pic was on the cover of the TV Guide! Brought it home and people can make fun but.. I kept smelling the Cover of it! Who knows as a kid? Maybe thinking I was smelling His scent or something!! 😂😁😂♥️♥️♥️ How Sad, and what a shame, that his life was cut off So soon. I believe he just missed what would have been. And, so did we. He, We, never got the chance to see Vince as being one of the Greats. It was Right there in the making, and he had that "It" factor which seldom happens. Damn-
Vince, it's so hard to believe you've been gone 16 years today . The tears still flow and the pain's still there . I love you and miss you so much . Rest in peace .
Remembering this great actor & true gentleman on his 95th birthday. His legion of fans have been lobbying for decades to get his tv series "Matt Lincoln" from 1970, along with the pilot Dial Hot Line, seen. For some reason, this series has been banned from public viewing. Literally not available via any viewing platform since it originally aired in 1970. He started as a singer & has a beauriful voice.
The series (Matt Lincoln) has not been banned. It is sitting in the Universal TV vault. Since only 16 episodes were produced, that amount is not enough to make it viable for syndication. However, Universal did combine several episodes (like they did for other short lived series) to make a few two-hour movies available for syndication to local stations.
@@greg6363There are so many tv series that are short-lived that have been released on DVD. Ex. The Immortal. Only 15 eps. plus the pilot. VEI distribution basically only releases short- lived series. Whether half a season or one full season. The only short- lived series with a major actor not to get any kind of release is George C. Scott. But, it can be found through private collectors. Vince was the biggest tv star in the world as Ben Casey, yet CBSHOMEENT has only released the first season. That was almost five years ago. Amazon has to keep restocking. The mystery is why the pilot film to Matt Lincoln is not viewable anywhere even through private collectors? It aired as an abc movie of the week. Every tv movie with a big name actor and obscure actors can be found. Not this movie. I cannot count the short- lived tv series that are out there. Yet, why is this actor ignored in his tv series? Abc-Disney now owns the rights. The eps. and pilot are housed in the UCLA film and tv archives and the Library of Congress. You can make an appt.for onsite viewing.
Handsome talented man. Actor, singer athlete. I had the pleasure of meeting him in Venice California at the "World Gym" in the early nineties. He was very kind and posed for a pic with me and autograph. I enjoy your channel Oceandiver! 😉
Still watching Ben Casey August 2022 💞 whoever owns the rights to Ben Casey should immediately release ALL the seasons on DVD please these shows are still very relevant today such a well acted well written show Vince was a brilliant actor I had such a huge crush on him they don't make men like Vince Edwards anymore such a nice great funny gentleman we miss you very much Vince 🕊️❤️🙏💕😎
Wow! I heard this song ONCE when I was a little boy and it stayed in my head. It was on some TV show and for all I know it could have been this one. After all these years, I get to hear it for a second time. I didn't know if he would sing in this clip but I was hoping he would and bam - there was the song. Interestingly, as an adult I became a fan of Rupert Holmes, the writer of this song - never knowing that he had written this too. THANKS FOR POSTING!!!!
Hi donnelly291 . your comments have really touched my heart . yes, vince was ahead of his time. Brilliant actor, singer , and also director too . Yes, he's missed greatly and loved greatly. Oh how I wish he was still with us .
Hi hippiegirl58 . Thank you so much for your comments . YES !!!!!! DISTRIBUTORS WAKE UP !!!!!! We , Vince fans , want his tv shows released on dvd !!!!!! He gave us fans so much . He and His work deserve to be out on dvd . Vince , you are missed so much .
Happy 84th birthday Vince up there in Heaven !!! Thank you for sharing all your talents with us and making the world a better place. Love you and miss you.
Hi donnelly291. Thank you so much for the beautiful words !!! Remembering this special man and the joy and entertainment he gave us throughout his life and career . Love you Vince !!!
Another birthday has come and gone but the memory of Vince Edwards will always linger on through the year and sometimes through a tear,it is so sad that he cannot be here,but he has left behind so much to share so that tear I shed on this birthday can be wiped away until the next birthday,
Vince, it's so hard to believe it's been 15 years since you left us . How I love you and miss you . And know that you are loved by many and missed greatly
anyone else think there is a strong resemblance to Mark Ruffalo? Vince Edwards was without doubt the best thing about American telly. True one of a kind.
Vince, I will be out of town on your birthday . So I'm sending you an early birthday wish. Happy 83rd birthday Vince !!!!!!(July 9) I love you and miss you . You are greatly loved and missed .
I cannot believe Vince left us 15 years ago today. I am thrilled to see he is still so missed and beloved. Again, distributors wake up, it is time to release both his tv series on dvd. They are Ben Casey and the rare but quality series Matt Lincoln. Rare because ABC aired this drama at 7:30 in 1970. It was never given a chance. RIP Vince.
@donnelly291 oh wow cool you have that contract !!!!! definitely a keepsake . thank you so much for having a special mass for him on his birthday. i will be out of town, but i most definitely will have him on my mind all day . yes, i believe he's with us . one thing i always think of and comforts me is vince is only gone from our sight to the beauties of heaven . love you vince with all my heart
Thank you for all you beloved thoughts about Vince. I am thrilled I am not alone. I literally have been e-mailing distributor for over a decade to release both his tv series, Ben Casey and Matt Lincoln. Matt Lincoln is not well known because ABC stupidly aired his series at 7:30. Can you believe it? I have never heard of a drama series airing at this time. It was never given a chance in a normal timeslot just chancelled and replaced at 8:00! with Alias Smith and Jones.
Grew up across the street from his twin brother, rumor has it they became enemies because of Vince refusing to take his shoes off to enter his brothers house at a block party after a downpour!
I feel sad they he didn't have any lasting marriages,3 times averaging about two years maybe if he had lived longer the 3rd one would have lasted, but 3 daughters,died in 1996 of cancer,his real last name was Zoino agent must have changed it early on, great voice!! He was scary in Do not fold spindle or bend,it on RUclips,great actor ♥️
@hippiegirl58 . Thank you hippiegirl58 for working so hard to get both BEN CASEY and MATT LINCOLN out on DVD . Hope to see these dreams come true in the near future !!!
@oceandiver75 You are welcome. I just hate the hypocrisy and replies I get from distributors regarding the release of Vince's two tv series. Your tribute is a testament to how missed and beloved Vince is. It is time distributors heed the public's call and release his series. No more delays. They can be released MOD (Manufacture on Demand) this is what Warner Archives sometimes does. Warner Archives understands that people want to see these old shows again. and make the supreme effort.
In this interview he has that carefreeness of Robert Urich. First time I seen Vincent in an interview. He's really cool. And I agree about boxing in actors.
Matt Lincoln defined the 1970's. Vince played a psychiatrist that ran a walk-in clinic and a telephone hotline for troubled college age kids. It was the first series to deal with emotional issues in an adult manner. There are 16 episodes plus the pilot film Dial Hot Line, Universal owns it. Here is there e-mail address USHE.consumerrelations@bydeluxe.com Universal sometimes license their shows to shout!factory info@shoutfactory. Ben Casey is owned by Paramount studios. Thanks.
Interesting that he didn't like the term B Movie. He was ahead of his time. What was considered a B Movie then, would be called a low budget, or independent film today. In those days the B Movie was the 2nd feature of a double bill movie. Today we don't have double bill movies, due to multiplex theaters, which they didn't have in those days.

I agree that Sam could have been insecure about his height. I am guessing he wore lifts because they seem to be close in height when walking side by side.
You would have thought the show’s hair stylists could have figured out how to get Vince’s hair to lay flat on the back of his head. It’s really distracting every time he turns his head!

The show would have been a better fit in the 10 PM slot. With the early airtime, they had to tone down the material.
One of the handsomest guys ever. Perfection, imo and lol.

Didnt know he sang hmm
Check out his albums and CD's. He has a beautiful voice.
In this interview he has that carefreeness of Robert Urich.
First time I seen Vincent in an interview.
He's really cool.
And I agree about boxing in actors.

I wonder what Vincent Edward Zoine's father thought, when his son dropped his family name?
I miss this guy. I crushed on Ben Casey at 5.
Hi pbcwerner . Thank you for your comments .

I was surprised that Vince said Sam Jaffe was close to 6' tall. He actually was very short at slightly over 5' 7".
Sam Jaffe was about 6' tall.
+Amy Birenbaum Don't take my word for it: www.imdb.com/name/nm0415488/bio
In virtually every movie & TV show Sam was in the other actors towered over him, especially Vince Edwards
who was 6'-2" according to Google. That is why it was so strange that Vince said he was much taller than that.
Thanks for correcting me.
+Amy Birenbaum No problem Amy. I don't know why Vince said he was 6' tall. Maybe Sam was insecure about his height. I wish they put the old Ben Casey shows on RUclips.

his singing is out of sync. Pantomime I think. Too bad I wanted to see him sing live.
