Gray Matters by Stuart Carlson and Jerry Resler for May 19, 2013

The only way the young guy and gal could have seen that is on YouTube!

I missed that show. I think I was in Jail at the time.

I remember Mr. Acker Bilk played his lovely clarinet piece , "Stranger on the Shore’ on that historical Ed Sullivan show

Topo Gigio!

Dan remembers the Beatles on Ed Sullivan?? I call BS on that one.

I remember watching it. One of the rare times my Mom and Dad actually listened to rock & roll music.

I was in the third grade, watched it. That was all anyone talked about the next day. One girl even came in with a Beatles haircut.

I remember my parents always watching Lawrence Welk. Groan. Which came on just before the Ed Sullivan show.

jbmlaw I was too, and that is all anybody talked about on the playground. And we girls were all deciding which won we liked the best. Paul had most of us swooning! LOL!

I was less than a year old, so no.

We intentionally avoided it. Who can hear the act with all that screaming going on?
