  1. #NinaSimone #EdSullivan #PorgyAndBess

    Just the lyrics here, but look for her version on line via Ed Sullivan Show

    I loves you, Porgy
    Don't let him take me
    Don't let him handle me and drive me mad
    If you can keep me, I wanna stay here
    With you forever and I'll be glad
    Yes I loves you, Porgy
    Don't let him take me
    Don't let him handle me with his hot hands
    If you can keep me I wants to stay here
    With you forever, I've got my man
    I loves you, Porgy
    Don't let him take me
    Don't let him handle me and drive me mad
    If you can keep me, I wanna stay here
    With you forever, I've got my man
    Someday I know he's coming to call me
    He's going to handle me and hold me
    So, it's going to be like dying, Porgy
    When he calls me
    But when he comes I know, I'll have to go
    I loves you, Porgy
    Don't let him take me
    Honey, don't let him handle me and drive me mad
    If you can keep me, I wanna stay here
    With you forever, I've got my man

  11. My choice for #SaturdayOnStage goes way back in history. The Ravens were one of the most influential early rhythm and blues vocal groups. Here's a rare January 2, 1949 appearance on the Talk of the Town TV show, which was hosted by Ed Sullivan:

    The Ravens: My Sugar Is So Refined (1949)
    youtube.com/watch?v=_f3gm-681LI

    The line-up is (from left to right) Richie Cannon (baritone), Maithe Marshall (1st tenor/falsetto), Jimmy Ricks (bass) and Leonard Puzey (2nd tenor). The pianist is Howard Biggs, who also had a profilic career as a band leader, arranger and composer.

    September 17, 1967 ~ Appearing on The Ed Sullivan Show, The Doors are asked to change the line "Girl, we couldn't get much higher" in their hit "Light My Fire" to "Girl, we couldn't get much better." They agree, then Morrison sings the offending line anyway, pissing-off the host and earning a lifetime ban from the show. #thedoors #edsullivan #censorship #legend #jimmorrison #rock #rockmusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky

  24. Ted Tocks Covers - Year 8 - Day 64

    Ticket to Ride

    On this day 60 years ago, #TheBeatles recorded a six song set for a later broadcast of #TheEdSullivanShow

    “I don't know why she's riding so high
    She ought to think twice
    She ought to do right by me
    Before she gets to saying goodbye
    She ought to think twice
    She ought to do right by me”

  28. #WTF

    What in the actual fuck?!?!
    Mainstream #60s television has a lot to answer for.
    Why the hell am I watching this?

    I knew it was a mistake to switch from listening to records to putting on television.

    When a ninja is killed, I expect him to stay dead.
