The Ed Sullivan Show was a television variety program that aired on CBS from 1948-1971. For 23 years it aired every Sunday night and played host to the world's greatest talents. The Ed Sullivan Show is well known for bringing rock n' roll music to the forefront of American culture through acts like Elvis Presley, The Beatles, and The Rolling Stones. The entertainers each week ranged from comedians like Joan Rivers and Rodney Dangerfield, to Broadway stars Julie Andrews and Richard Burton, to pop singers such as Bobby Darin and Petula Clark. It also frequently featured stars of Motown such as The Supremes, The Temptations, Stevie Wonder and The Jackson 5. The Ed Sullivan Show was one of the only places on American television where such a wide variety of popular culture was showcased and its legacy lives on to this day.

RIP Tony Bennett 1926 - 2023 At The Age Of 96 Years Old.

[@cherylhall8915]

I read that this was the last song that Mr. Bennett played and sang at home. 😢 Rest in peace

[@anne-louiseluccarini4530]

Who could have guessed we'd be seeing and hearing this seventy years later? We used to dream over this song.

[@kenyongray2615]

Talent personified. One of the most remarkably long careers of all time for any performer that has lived on planet Earth.

[@billwilly3950]

He has now left that legacy! What a splendid voice! Rest in Peace, Anthony Dominick Benedetto!

[@debranielsen2002]

Very few performers can be called one of a kind . . . but this man is one of those few.

[@dennismclaurin1487]

Well said

RIP Tony.

More Tony in his mid-twenties. :) He would still be performing SEVENTY years later!

[@lisahayes8834]

At the time of this show he was 25; when the song was released he was 24.

[@TomElvisSmith]

This was Tony's first big hit, and I believe this may have been his very first appearance on television. It was his first on the Sullivan show. "Because of You" was a number one record in 1951, and is one of my favorite songs. Thank you a million for posting this super rare and historic performance!

@@that70sgirl90 I think this is his most historic appearance since I believe it's his first on television. I was really looking forward to this one! Imagine, Tony was just a newcomer to the music business in this video, and he could have not have known that he would become a legend!

@@TomElvisSmith Who would've of thought?! When they did that documentary on him not to long ago on 60 minutes, I really cried. What a man, what a career. Glad you got to see it! I think we all are... Thanks again! 💖

He was one cool guy. Not many can say they're at his level.

Great song I listen to over and over in 1951

I was a teen ager in High School then. I can still remember how excited I was to see him on the Ed Sullivan Show that night!

[@chiptenor]

Beautiful, Tony, just beautiful. And 'thanks'.... thanks a million for all you gave to make this world, through your music, a little bit 'better'!

[@MegaDean1995]

It’s a shame he hardly sang the songs that made him famous in concerts

[@jonathanterrebonne]

😊

[@jadezee6316]

Tony Bennett would develop a bit of stage presence as he aged....and the voice would get stronger,,,,
