Sam Cooke & Muhammad Ali -- Hey, Hey, The Gang's All Here

Restored with color correction, image denoising, and frame interpolation to 60i. This was probably broadcast on "Grandstand", on 7 March 1964.

@Ian Ford People wind up dead all the time. Should we always attach conspiracy theories to their deaths or realize that death is smiling at us all? Unless we can prove these things its no point in talking about it as if its fact. At that point all you’re doing is spreading rumors and gossip which does nobody any good🤨.

[@aaron-jeffreyrincon9438]

@Ian Ford You're forgetting MJ and Paul McCartney were best friends and Paul helped him with the business side of music. So when he bought the beatles catalog is a "fuck you" to his best friends face.

[@rcardosanders2885]

Black people knew they were all friends, white folk's didn't know. They always want know everything about black stars

[@Indygenous]

Just goes to show your ignorance. If you really thought sam was legend you wouldve done ur own research and find out they were friends. Not from a movie. Nothing but hypocrites hiding behind words. Just because you say theyre legends you think i didnt notice what you were trying.

@@a.p.3204 Well first of all, we give some artistic license to the writer of the movie. The film was inspired by actual events but no one knows what the men actually discussed in the room that night. Jim Brown is the only one still alive and he wasn't consulted on the film. You couldn't possibly know what was said and neither can anyone else with the exception of Brown.
