[@v.mvarga4979]

Boy, the atmosphere. I'm not gonna say "i wish i was born in those times" but hell, i'd be lying if i say that i don't want to be in those jazzy places drinking bourbon, smoking, listening, talking, enjoying myself...

[@thomasenaharris2071]

Yes and this is 2021

[@ferdinangenius]

iIf you are interested I have a time machine on sell... It is called Jack daniels

[@genec8393]

I was out and about during those times and playing too. You're right. You would have enjoyed it. However, I never smoked, drank to excess, or drugged. The smoke was a little much at times.

[@cherylharvey3089]

ME TOO 🍉

[@guesswho498]

Loved It! Mrs Nancy Wilson ' RIH

[@dariustidwell6411]

Nancy Wilson is one of the best Singers in history, she's next to Aretha Franklin, Natalie Cole, Chaka Khan, Pattie Labelle, Ella Fitzgerald, Whitney Houston, Gladys knight, and Phyllis Hyman. I don't think this generation really knows who Nancy Wilson is, she is underrated but people needs to give her a lifetime tribute to her music and singing.

[@MrAttribution]

I saw this woman perform in 2009 and she's still the sexiest vocal scientist on the planet. Can't beat Nancy's Happy Talk.

[@kenreed3145]

That's about the same time we saw her. Fabulous presence and voice!

[@lynnroberts6505]

I play Happy Talk as my voicemail message. Folks who hang on long enough to leave a message always comment. Two people told me how much they enjoyed it on the day she passed. I could not help but smile

[@TheWriterWalker]

PG Y, "vocal scientist" is the best phrase I have read in a long time! Thank you.

[@bigfinewomanful]

I can’t believe her voice was silenced today. RIP Nancy Wilson

[@JewelsR4ever]

My heart is truly broken ...

[@narvelancoleman3813]

Not silenced. Her beautiful body was laid to rest; and her angelic voice and spirit was lifted up in Heaven. Her soul will stay in residence with us through all of the perfect, magnificent, pristine vocal recordings, and televised shows of her genius gift from God.

[@2dasimmons]

@@narvelancoleman3813 Beautiful! Your comment is so high-spirited and TRUE. Let's anticipate the Heavenly Choir's arrival when the Almighty YAH reclaims HIS world😍

[@narvelancoleman3813]

@2dsimmons...Thank you for your kind comment. God Bless You!

[@jorgecisternas8285]

Encantadora voz

[@chrisn7259]

That sweet baby face! All of her talent was already in full flower. RIP Fancy Miss Nancy.

[@yor90]

these jazz scene shows are real gems. 50+ years later and i'm totally enthralled.

[@jeffreyfoote4834]

That's what real talent does to you.

[@alexforest1]

I love this show 💥

[@captainnice9698]

Her voice reminds me of the best of times in the 1960's

[@bighillc08]

She was ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!!

[@gcpezzi]

+SpeakMyMind Yes... I'm amazed!

[@MickeyDs14]

SpeakMyMind still beautiful at 80. I've always loved that she let her hair whiten/gray, too. Especially when her peers were wearing wigs or dying their hair. Made her that much more beautiful.

[@big88ful]

This is what TV is suppose to look like. Real talent showing off there talents for all the world to see. I wish TV would look like this again!!

[@zoeabbey9400]

big88ful yes this was when talent was real natural talent.

[@divaslm1]

We all do. Grace and elegance and classic hollywood was featured.

[@atirad8]

You'd have to turn back time and have to adopt many ways of social graces morals and standards of engagement that existed without the tenants of white supremacy. Ms. Nancy Wilson was not only elegant, poised, uniquely talented in her craft, but she was a confident, informed, intelligent, well raised young woman supported throughout her life by her parents and decent people in the industry. What many may not realize is that she was an activist against the injustices of our society then. Yet she managed to balance her private and public life because the media and journalism were more true to form not ficticous, venomous sensationalism deceiving the mass. Ms Nancy Wilson was at a time when the artist was more in control of her delivery and production was not the driving force it later became.

[@divaslm1]

Nat King Cole and Nancy Wilson were great and broke barriers. Wow!

[@margaretmoore7512]

Love this!!! And she just got better with age.

[@boomerang905]

We lost a huge part of music when she left us. So beautiful. 💐

[@John-ok4zh]

That's true, she was a true talent with a lovely voice, what's your favorite song by her?

[@aliasno.4andover644]

​@@John-ok4zh Mine's is "On the street where you live."

[@noelleslie6665]

One of the most beautiful women in the planet... Ms. Nancy Williams.... Heavily talented singer with elegance, charm, class! Love from Bangalore, India

[@starcrib]

Strong constitution, a Revelation, a Woman of her Era. What a star flamed virtuoso. we will miss you...!!

[@strictlynorton]

Beautifully stated. A firecracker of feminimity

[@Take5Geri]

Back in '62 Nancy Wilson was guest on many TV shows she was HOT, Loved her great voice and artistic abilities...so happy to hear here again. Thank you. Chesapeake Music.

[@louisgonzalez8846]

62 reminds me of her version of Put on a Happy Face, best version ever. Cool, jazzy, sexy with CLASS!!!

[@Dion_Mustard]

Why is this woman not as well known as say Eartha Kitt, or Etta James, or Dinah Washington?? She has the most unique sound. She could have sung the phone book and you would know it was NW! I am going to listen to (and appreciate) more of her music and find out more about her life :)

[@kathylee1261]

She is well known

[@PaulGreen11]

"The Fancy Miss Nancy Willson", that will stay with me for the rest of my life!

[@mosaicclassics]

Rest in peace, dear Nancy. Thank you for the stunning music and joyful life you lived.

[@2dasimmons]

Wow! I'm back because i cannot get enough of Fancy Miss Nancy's singing on these beautiful old songs. She really is a feminine songstress and you won't see (1}) tattoo! Hooray.

[@TheWriterWalker]

Wow!!! I have always respected her exquisite and classy voice, but this is the first time I have ever seen young Nancy Wilson singing. Amazing! The internet's good for this, at least.

[@Darrell1019]

Hear, hear!

[@yor90]

same here, never saw her until now!

[@cliffordwoods166]

An amazing singer

[@gcpezzi]

My God!!! She was GORGEOUS!!!!!!!!

[@TheWriterWalker]

I agree! Delicate features. Elegant gestures. Exquisite voice.

[@CB-bh5ht]

Where style, sexy, intelligence, talent, beauty, class being a woman & a lady come together. This confluence ladies and gentlemen the ultimate story teller this ladies and gentlemen the inconquerable NANCY WILSON.

[@marvinhagler4721]

RIP ..A CLASS ACT THAT STAYED CLASSY..RIP

[@georgehankerson6193]

Saw her in the late 60’s in Minneapolis. Great show enchanting personality,great voice and gorgeous. Will miss her

[@TheAnnaFisher]

RIP Sister Queen Nancy Wilson.

[@cassandramuhammad4127]

My favorite album "Nancy and Cannonball" been listening to her since I was sixteeen years old. My older sister got married and left that album in the house and I've been listening to it every since 1966 even before then because I remember listening to "guess who" and my sisters discussing that song and how she caught her man cheating. My sister was into Nancy, Dinah Washington and Sarah Vaughn but I fell in love with Nancy. Such a beautiful distinguished voice.!!

[@louisgonzalez8846]

Yr sister had incredibly excellent taste Cassandra!!

[@pertburton5586]

I got an CD with Ms. Wilson and Mr. Lou Rawls during Christmas songs and I listen to it year round, my first serious girlfriend was name Nancy.

[@glen7695]

Oscar Brown's comments at 4:45 are worth noting. Respect the lyrics... find a song with something valid to say, then say it. Nancy Wilson brings out a depth of meaning to lyrics that is very rare. Her vibrato is compelling, her quiet phrases draw you in-- and then--wham, she nails a high note that soars and cuts. The range of emotion she expresses is spellbinding.

[@genemaurillo4162]

She's only 25 here. How did she attain such maturity with her singing, so young?

[@TheUrbanPrude]

She had been singing from her youth from what I understand

[@Louisbreguet-b7b]

An innate talent!

[@bh5606]

Wish shows like this were on TV now.

[@LNN1356]

That ending of Guess Who I Saw is the most piercing and haunting line ever. Imagine you partner who you were cheating on looked at you straight in the eyes and said it like that...

[@jalonagipson9203]

A nice lady talked to me tonight and put me on😍She is everything she said she was😍Theres oldies then theres vintage for some😍😍Love the past. They sung from the heart. Wish ya would put some bullish out🤣

[@christiank6840]

Rest peacefully. She was a national treasure

[@vasidney]

In mid 50's I spent hours listening to Nancy and the Rusty Bryant band at a little club in Columbus called Kitty's Show Bar. What a great voice even then. I was at OSU but a jazz loving friend and I spent many school nights there, I with a flashlight to use to study during intermission! She has been one of my favorites ever since.

[@bonniel15]

I grew up listening to Ms. Wilson, my parents loved her vocals, all of her music.....Ms. Wilson was a talented, intelligent, beautiful, classy lady. I will always love her jazzy music style!!!! Goodnight Ms. Lady!!!!!!

[@kwabenarasuli8108]

Wow! Another one of our greats gone - but her beautiful music will remain with us! Good to see Oscar Brown Jr. doing this intro. too!

[@BlackGeoYoutube]

Love Nancy. RIP beautiful lady.

[@returnofthemack8347]

She was so beautiful and gifted

[@r.herreraart7856]

Such a great the Honorable Nancy Wilson RIP 🌹🙏❤😢 Thank you.

[@diamondlil597]

Forever Fancy Ms Nancy 🍸 True "Class"

[@donaway6]

Nancy has blown my mind. My late friend Mr Bingham loved this woman. I was young... listening to Chaka Khan...Tell me something good. I'm 62 now and I can't get enough of Nancy. Such a beautiful soulful voice. This is music.

[@mharm1017]

Interesting that you bring up Chaka Khan in relation to Nancy Wilson. Both sang with the Echoes of an Era band. I have the CD with Chaka, but cannot find the cassette I had from the 80s with Nancy. Both bands were swinging straight ahead. What voices. Two of my favorite vocalists. We miss you, Nancy.

[@BIGBOSSandTHEDOLL]

Who could have given this a thumbs down??

[@Igzia.B]

+BigBoss AndTheDoll The dude she saw in that french cafe, the one who used to be her husband...?

[@sighiguess]

Someone who watched the vid upside down, surely

[@zoeabbey9400]

BigBoss AndTheDoll the ones who put thumbs down were dead dumb and blind and didn't know what they pushed.

[@mw9491]

deaf people

[@mw9491]

Let me rephrase that- I mean people that have no ear.

[@divaslm1]

RIP Nancy Wilson

[@davidnorum778]

My wife and I were fortunate enough to see her live a few times. What a treat. For someone who always proclaimed herself NOT a jazz singer, SHe is probably my favorite female "jazzy" singer ever. ONly Sarah Vaugh even comes close for me.

[@francejackson-ashley3024]

Such class with a golden voice!

[@2dasimmons]

Nancy Wilson truly was FANCY MISS NANCY. She has such a feminine style and really gets a lot out of a song. BEAUTIFUL.

[@strictlynorton]

My heart is broken at her passing but filled with joy that a talent this fierce blessed us. Class. Elegance and natural interpretive skill. Rest well angel. R.I.P.

[@DaOrigTruthSeeker]

I love this lady. A true treasure not found in today's music.

[@erossinema8797]

Music is so disgusting nowadays. It's synthetic, soulless and just plain weird.

[@roywillis2750]

What a wonderful voice. PLEASE folks, listen to the whole clip ... AND I guarantee that you will know that you've heard the most beautiful singer that you ever heard in the past 50 years. Can you tell me anyone better ? AND ... it occurred to me that she is not just a singer BUT a fantastic muso.... Just listen to the track "Never will I marry " Just amazing.

[@allanredford6070]

teriffic lady. girl with the honey voixe, interpreter of jazz and popular song- supreme. glad we have this. thanks.

[@Gracenotesmusic]

Great show - why don't we have any Jazz shows on TV now. - This is timeless! Nancy celebrates her 77th BD today (2-20)2014

[@soupbonep]

Her voice is so beautiful and captivating, and it makes me melt and swoon and I have the biggest crush on Nancy Wilson.

[@johnjarou2357]

Nancy Wilson. Big time talent!!

[@kpitt1204]

This clip reminds me that pure talent wins every time. Ms. Nancy never leaked nudes, twerked, sang anything vulgar nor wore clothing befitting of a brothel, yet her career spanned decades, and she is definitely one of the classiest women to ever adorn a stage! Her voice is so clear and pure. Yeah, she's among my favorites!

[@TruthSerum101]

If only that were true. Pure talent does not win every time. Do you know any professional musicians? Miss Wilson, I will agree, is divine.

[@samuelhasan3616]

amen!!Amen!!Whatey Man

[@divaslm1]

kpitt1204 preach. Class, Talent and Dignity always stand the test of time.

[@kpitt1204]

TruthSerum101 I'm so late with my reply! Lol I meant in comparison to a lot of the vocalists today. Yes, I totally understand what you are saying. I live it! Hope all is well.

[@GaryFox11000]

Fantastic voice , classy lady. They don't sing like that anymore !

[@maryriley1608]

she'll be greatly miss what a vocalist she took each note she sang and took it to another height thank you Ms Wilson .

[@Seabasstien]

There are many singers that I like but Nancy Wilson is the only one I can listen to and never get tired, she's just that good and then there's that Smile.

[@user-mb1sy9uz6z]

Fun memory: In the Bahamas in 1991 & Nancy appeared at the hotel I stayed, but the show sold out! So disappointed!! RIP Empress!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@Amatus47]

I cannot tell folks how much i have to thank my mom for sharing her Saturday morning with me listening to Nancy. Since then i have been hooked. What a voice there will never be another.

[@whiteyboy6454]

Ms. Wilson; a priceless treasure and a gift from heaven, she's a blessing for the families of the earth.

[@marshallkatz9348]

This is one talented beautiful woman. I place up there with Ms. Ella

[@Stan00075]

Great video of Nancy Wilson. Live performance in 1962, wish I was in the audience. Wait, Just closed my eye's and I am there, Ahwwwwwwwwww. Thanks for posting !

[@user-mb1sy9uz6z]

Never got to see Nancy in concert: thank God for You Tube concerts!❤

[@reidwhitton6248]

These are some great programs. And it's so cool to have a sophisticated host in Oscar Brown, Jr. A great artist in his own right.

[@cindybutts6638]

One of the BEST!!! To EVER do it!!!!!!!’

[@bigeman25]

Just beautiful in every sense of the word. A blessing was given to us for all to enjoy. Hope you enjoyed her as much as I did. Love you, Nancy. Rest in Peace.

[@1FrankFan]

I Believe in You...one of the great songs of all time...

[@pertburton5586]

I love how they set the stage for the classic "Guess who I saw today."

[@daisysimmons2466]

Wow! I'm really enjoying Fancy Miss Nancy here. I still remember her fabulous album with the late great Cannonball Adderley. Beautiful.

[@onlyjaz]

Great music is Timeless! Nancy is a treasure.

[@ervina02]

What a beauty with a beautiful voice i just love her! RIP Nancy you will never be replaced!

[@sharonstroud8279]

[@aya9af]

'Little Girl Blue' @ 5:07 ~ Beautiful Silky Nancy Wilson , Thank you for the gift your, most lovely, music.

[@unc1589]

She was painfully gorgeous in her 20s. She came from an era where you had to have talent. The competition was fierce. Mediocrity? Never made it back then.

[@jimwhitman3678]

This is a true treasure. Crazy to think this was recorded the year I was born. The “current “ artists of today need to try to reach her vocal talent. Imagine what a different world we would live in.

[@2dasimmons]

What an APPRECIATIVE AUDIENCE. Just right for a great performance.

[@hawkrider88]

An incredible one of a kind talent. Guess Who I Saw Today, had no idea she was doing this that early in her career. God bless you Nancy.

[@billystrayhornsghost]

Cant get enough of sweet nancy.

[@louisgonzalez8846]

Fancy Nancy, if you please!! (That was her sobriquet back then)

[@aya9af]

God bless you and your mom ♡

Excellent! The great Nancy Wilson!!!

[@RXmusic4YOU]

Yes, Miss Nancy. I purchased “That” dress. You said I would. I looked flawless and classy almost like you. Thank you for the sisterly encouragement! Your talent was and continues to be top tier. Rest my sister.

Some of the tunes she sings here I played from her first LP on my radio show in the 70's.

[@rooseveltmorris8934]

From the beginning to the end she was a class act her music will live forever

[@TheMarapasa]

we are so fabulous!!!!!!! now that is talent!

[@2dasimmons]

YES! Those days are coming back totally. We've had a taste. Sooner than later we will get the FULL MUSICAL EXPERIENCE. Folks like Nancy, Sarah Vaughan, Lorez Alexandria, Carmen McRae, etc. will in full force. HalleluYAH!

[@tcampbell1111]

Wow! I've been a fan of the incomparable Nancy Wilson for decades. This footage is fabulous. I fall deeper in love.

[@larrydawson1445]

nobody can sing "The only music that makes me dance" like she does__ a fan for over 50 yrs. I miss the days of real talent without all the auto tune and electronic enhancements of todays singers with limited or no talent

[@alexforest1]

Glorious blast from the past! what a voice and the trio was a joy. Great to see and hear Oscar Brown Jr, -Thank you for a very entertaining evening.

[@alexforest1]
