Smothers Brothers - 02 - Quando Caliente El Sol

The Smothers Brothers with the Boston Pops from the mid 80s.

[@homegown1234]

WOW, what these guys can sing including a song that was so popular and sang the lyrics with so much feelings. Being Hispanic I love them - I miss this show and so glad you were able to place on "KZbin!" Love it! I loved them when they were on TV back in the 60s and missed them terribly. So happy to see them in videos to watch again. So glad they got credit for all they did for TV back in the 60s despite being fired by CBS.

[@chestermarcol3831]

Absolutely one of the funniest things I have ever watched. They were incomparable.

[@roneagle8038]

Here it is, Christmas day, 2022, and an old man finds a blessing in the form of the ageless talent of the Smothers Brothers. Thank you, thank you!

[@DaveDunning-st1hh]

The gift that keeps on giving. I loved them in their heyday, too. Broken hearted when they were cancelled. They are as enlightened and timeless as the sun itself. Set the kids down in front and make them watch. Make them watch Buster Keaton, W. C. Fields, and the Marx Brothers as well. They'll thank you.😊

Here it is, just before New Years Eve 2023, and Tommy Smothers passes away… 😢😢😢

[@Woody615]

Not only is their comedy fantastic, but their musicianship is better than a lot of 'musicians' out there today. This is a fantastic arrangement and the harmonies are great. They could be successful at legitimate musicians.

[@MelissaThompson432]

They're musicians who started doing comedy as their "patter" during performances.

My wife is from Mexico and we went and saw The Smother's Brothers when they were playing in Jacksonville Fla. Dick was in the lobby talking to everyone and was very kind to everyone. I introduced him to my wife who had never heard of The Smothers Bros. in Mexico. He was wonderful enough to dedicate this song to my wife and we will never forget it. I show this to my wife's family whenever we go down to Mexico and it is very popular.

[@luishumbertovega3900]

Tremendo honor !!!

[@janetallen5078]

Pure talent,pure love of giving that talent for others to enjoy! Always a Fan!

[@lnmgilbert2004]

Every time they do a sketch it's like they're doing it for the first time ... never gets old. And they pull it off perfectly over and over. True performers!

[@michaelh2737]

I have had the pleasure and also the privilege of knowing Dick Smothers, visiting his home and he visiting mine. Was surrealistic to watch a television legend in my living room playing with my then 2 year old daughter. Was such a pleasure to know him to be a very real man, not at all pretentious, sincere and a pleasure to know as a friend. Different to see his off stage persona, to be that of a funny man, unlike his more straight man character. God bless you Dick and Tom. Enjoy retirement.

[@sidv192]

these guys were so far ahead of their time

[@annedona]

When he switched to German in the middle of the song and then totally went off on his own tangent, I was almost crying! Not sure what's funnier: Tom and his antics or Dick standing there calmy watching. If I remember correctly, this was the same song that segued into "Dueling Banjos" with the pianist. I loved the video retrospective too. It really was a great night!

[@DasGoldenBoy]

I was on the front row right in front of Tommy. I couldn't have asked for a better seat. It was hysterical how Tommy kept referring to the conducter as George SCHRAAAAM. Great show!

[@donna30044]

Behind all the fun and games, there were two extremely talented and dedicated musicians, humorists, and social justice activists. One of the greatest travesties was the removal of their show by censors at CBS.

[@rdowning60]

Tommy writing the comedic bits is a genius..time and time again he knocks it out of the park..what is so great about the comedy...Tommy makes sure to showcase their music and singing incredible talent 1st and then trumps everything with the comedy...

[@CameraShySmash]

I love the way their voices harmonize

[@elizabethhestevold1340]

Just love those two, the best part I had the chance to thank them in person.🕎🇩🇰🇺🇸🕊️🎆🥀

[@movieman9100]

Rest in Peace Tom Smothers.

[@MelissaThompson432]

The piano player has a great poker face.

[@bbva8293]

Nobody harmonizes like family. I have loved these guys since I was about 8 years old. They are timeless.

[@bernardburdick9264]

Capturing the audience reactions was genius.

[@elizabethhestevold1340]

What a way to begin Sunday before Church. I laughed so hard tears came down. They were the greatest🎆♥️🌬️🇺🇸🇩🇰

[@johnlorican]

I saw the Smothers Brothers two weeks ago in St. Louis. They were a lot of fun and, yes, they did this routine.

[@dmartin21211]

........nice vocal harmony and nice show.....yes, this beautiful song was compose by Nicaraguan poet Rafael Gaston Perez, who made others great songs like "Sinceridad", well known "Bolero Style"

[@walkshe]

It's amazing (these days) that this type of comedy still exists. It's still as good as I remember the Smothers Brothers to be when I used to watch the Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour. Not a curse word at all and still can make you roll on the ground laughing.

[@markgigiel2722]

Watching in 2019. Still a classic. True talent.

[@MomMominson]

Anyone hoping for a comedy career needs to study the Smothers Brothers. "Mom likes me best."

[@kevinfan726]

my mom had all their albums. I grew up listening to their gentle humor. I love seeing it "live" again.

[@krazykelsey18]

When I first watched this I said; oh, how are they gonna ruin this one ? I had never laughed harder in my life; I love these guys.

[@jif8802]

Let’s face it, these guys were so original, so funny, so talented it’s just so sad that they have no one that can hold candle to them nowadays...

[@jillspady6450]

Bring them back! Their comedy is always hysterical. And John Williams still going strong!

[@TOKAMEEL]

Going from the late 1950s. Let them have a rest. Buy their recordings and their wine.

[@annavogt826]

When entertainers were really talented!

[@sharonkelley1530]

Right now, I'm drooling! I love Dickie's singing voice so much. A true angel's voice!

[@lovesmusic36]

Sharon, we both have great taste! If you haven't already heard it, check out his rendition of The World I Used to Know. There are actually two versions, one from the Mom Always Liked You Best album and the other from The Straight Album.

[@annedona]

Just saw them Saturday night with the Charlotte (NC) Symphony and they were incredible! I laughed all night! They performed this and it was even funnier in person. Tommy is now 69 and Dickie is 71 and the years have taken nothing off their talent or humor!

[@roseblake5803]

They are so talented and hilarious at the same time. That has to be extremely hard to do. Love the SB.

[@mattschap2042]

Funny as hell. I've always liked this sketch. Comedy aside, their harmonies are spot on amazing..

[@slowdancer77]

I never saw this one before, I just can't stop laughing! The piano player is priceless! I love these guys! Saw them live with Jack Jones back in '63 or '64! Still love 'em! Thanks for the post

[@florida5505]

Magnifique!❤

[@annavogt826]

I could listen to these guys all day long!

[@pokslow]

What incredible talent ! Used to tickle me all the time when watching them on Malaysian TV and i was only 6 or 7 years old then

[@myopinion2]

Laughed until tears were running down my cheeks, great!

[@RobKandell]

I remember watching this first run. Thank you for sharing.

[@williamamely7038]

Beautiful rendition of Quando caliente el sol.

I always come back to this quintessential Smothers Brothers performance for its beauty, wit and humor. Wonderful!

[@g.macgregor5416]

Talent and appreciation for talent is a great gift and it’s ageless I saw someone who enjoyed this who’s 14, and I’m 87 now that’s bonding.

I can't even begin to extrapolate the fundamental fondantes of the hilarity procured from this transcendental Americannaization in this GOLDEN AGE MOVEMENT. LOVE LOVE LOVE is the cure

[@RandallCarrierINC]

Loved these guys since I was 12.

[@th3badg3r]

Rarely have I found any comedian to even compare with these guys, much less another duo. Classic.

[@glynisroberts5029]

I adore this song! This is a very lovely version.

[@miriamjewett5438]

Beautiful music, fellows. So, funny, too. Thank you for sharing your God given talents with the world.

[@budlong]

such amazing musicians

[@rdowning60]

That song was spectacular..harmony was so wonderful...right up to the part when the comedy took over...you dont realize how great these guys were...not only there musical and vocal genius..but then writing the comedy to fit the skit... so Tommy and dickie..had to learn the music..the Spanish words the blending and then memorizing the comedy parts...back to the music and again back to the comedy...Tommy has the greatest comedic timing in the business...

[@gerryroberts662]

Wow, they could speak another language, what real talent they have to still be around. Amazeing,.

[@robertbishop5357]

Would you jump off the Bridge if the piano player told you to?.....not again. .......priceless.

[@JimBischoff1184]

Dicky was trying not to laugh ! 😂

[@marybruun9621]

These guys were such a big part of my childhood. My dad hardly ever laughed....unless he was listening to these two

[@SherryDAmore]

This is my favorite version of this beautiful song

Saw them with my younger brother in the mid-90's when we were both teenagers. We had to leave while the show was going on because our sides were literally cramping. They were on fire that night. So funny!

[@lettermen1]

Priceless!

[@tomitstube]

just saw an interview with tommy, he says dickie only sang originally, then someone mentioned to them (when they became a duo) that dickie should be playing a bass. they were already both in college. it isn't easy to learn a fretless instrument but obviously there's some musical talent in the family, the notes are perfect.

[@MrsRosencranz1]

And he's really left-handed. Dickie played that bass right-handed for years to accommodate Tommy.

[@cindybailey9905]

So beautiful

[@Nonduality]

that's back when the talent was genuine and the girls dressed like old ladies.

[@alspeace]

CLASSIC!!! :-)

[@TommyBaggins]

Holy hell, I'm glad that I finally found this video. I saw this bit on television ages ago and thought that it was one of the funniest things that I ever saw. I still think that's a brilliant bit of comedy. The most impressive part of the whole thing, for me at least, is that for just short of two minutes, while Tommy Smothers is going off script (so to speak), Dick Smothers is just standing there with this look on his face like, "What the hell are you doing?" Dick barely moves and doesn't make a sound and manages to be hilarious while doing it. Don't get me wrong; Tommy was hysterical in this but DIck's stony-faced stillness was what stuck in my mind. Maybe that's just me.

[@BlackCatTrick]

I think I did too, but I seem to recall Dick explaining the lyrics, and maybe more German from Tommy. It's been a while...

[@Woody615]

I would love to hear this as a legitimate song. The harmonies are better than any version I've heard.

[@kekapcs]

Lindaaaa essa canção maravilhosa estava louca atras dessa musica

[@Azishome]

I love their comedy, but it breaks my heart whenever the stop in the middle of a beautiful number to do their routine. Still enjoy the Smothers Brothers.

[@Tmanaz480]

Jim Porter ... I get it, but it's a little like saying Don Rickles needs to be nicer, or Gracie Allen needs to wise up.

[@brianoneill7186]

I usually felt felt much the same way about Tommy's 'shtick', but it was done to better effect on this number. They were less 'political' that night than they would be in the ensuing years, and as a result, Tommy didn't turn the bit into a diatribe.

[@tigdogsbody]

Jim Porter Hello, I never cared for Victor Borge for the same reason.

[@marapaltrinieri5667]

Non sono nostalgica, furono tempi terribili per me 16 anni. Ma la musica di quei tempo era era un incantesimo

[@darlenericotta7550]

That was great!

[@Birdboy029]

AWESOME!!!

[@FeelRossly]

My mom LOVED these two idiots. I've seen bits from multiple decades (even some of their club work that was more political and/or blue-ish), and they always crack me up. Nobody does deceptively understated comedy quite like they do.

[@jfreesprt]

Is there a rating higher than "AWSOME"? Because this is FANTASTIC!!!

[@JoshFreilich]

I like that slight venture into German at 1:48. It was so serious at the beginning, but then he said those words and then it became funny again! Thank you Tommy Smothers for ruining the mood!!! And yes, that was a compliment.

[@Beitoven11]

2020!

[@rotory2002]

Its funny to see people in the audience laughing while waiting for the "Setup" They knew it was coming !!

[@Beautifulmusiclistnr]

That's what I was thinking! I couldn't believe the song went that long without them doing something funny.
