Joan Rivers monologue low cut black dress

Let Peace Begin With Me • "Let There Be Peace on...
pass this inspirational performance on, we need this now more than ever!!
Welcome! These musical clips are from a large video collection that is now being converted from VHS/Beta to digital. There is some viewing quality loss from the original video source due to the age of the tapes, but the performances are preserved and still a joy to view. I'm finding many lost performances from vintage R&B, Soul, Pop, Broadway, Cabaret and other performances. This channel will be the Ed Sullivan channel for the digital generation, something for everyone to enjoy. Many of the performances will be seen for the first time since they were originally televised. I will be adding many musical performances from a variety of sources that I hope you will enjoy.

I agree. Up there with the all time top echelon of comedians. She was ahead of her times. Thanks for the memories.

[@carloszenon4562]

She can bring a bit of solace to a Depressed person...

“We got him cremated & put him in a fruit jar” lmaooo

[@tydesagax8570]

I don't get that fruit jar joke

[@jackminton352]

Tyde Sagax a ‘fruit ‘ when referring to a person, is a derogatory term for a gay man. Joan put the man in a fruit jar because he’s a fruit ( gay).

No doubt she was one of the best!

[@td2926]

Joan Rivers is immensely funny, too bad people at that time did not appreciate her comedy.

[@ruslanskarnopelis6621]

That is not true...she was one of the biggest comedians and extremely popular in 70's and 80's. So people did appreciate her comedy!

[@redwingfan9393]

She got better ratings than Carson.

[@re7416]

@@redwingfan9393 Consistently (As later confirmed to her by NBC years later.)

[@redwingfan9393]

@@re7416 There is a reason why Fox wanted her, everyone knew she got bigger numbers than Carson. Her show at Fox was a hit and but for Edgar going to war with Fox executives she would have been there a long time.

[@JWH-01]

I am an old guy. I remember her well. She was hilarious! People "at that time" did appreciate her.

[@tjwash5118]

Dan doesn’t seem too happy that she talked to him.

Dan looked like he might have been from SF...

[@sheismymom]

he was furious

[@karinaaguiar7154]

Joan looked very nice here

Man, she is non stop 😂

[@joyrose9597]

❤

[@miguel-h]

Jokes are just as relevant as ever! 😂😂😂

[@robertdiotalevi285]

Why did they always have Joanie go stage left instead of center like Johnny and other guests/hosts?

[@qxripley1210]

Does anyone know the song the band plays for Joan's entrance ? Thanks

[@michaelglenn367]

...win a date with Dan Shepherd

[@amesino.i]

If anyone knows what she mean when she said "Safety Pin in the brasier" what was that for...?

[@Rivkid76]

Pinning a broken strap together

[@amesino.i]

Ohh ok i get the joke, Thanks!

[@user-fb4sb1zi8g]

I bought sexy lingerie but it didnt fit my husband lol

[@rockonmadonna]

Same jokes from 1970-2005, which is why she made a better red carpet interviewer than stand-up comedian

[@ReneAensland]

So if you didn't know. Most comedians do a 10 minute to 15 minute routine. They're different routines that they rehearse. Yes, they're the same jokes, but she also brought fresh ones. Keep in mind, she also excelled at interviews with Carson, she spit fire them most of the time.
