This aired on Wednesday, June 19, 1968. The next evening, the guests were Ed Sullivan, Walter Matthau, Nancy Wilson and James Brown. Now I would LOVE to see THAT episode!!

McCartney eventually appeared again on the Tonight Show in 1984 with a cake for Johnny. IIRC, it was on Johnny's birthday. That was considered a bit of an event at the time.

Priceless. I've always loved Ed Sullivan stories. Everybody in this era of showbiz seems to have a TON of them. And he's absolutely right about Barmitzvah. They've gone from holy to glitzy. Anything from the NYC years is a treat and if it's color and broadcast quality... you just made my day!!

As a kid, watching Alan King on Ed Sullivan was always a treat. While I probably didn't understand a lot of what Alan was saying as an 8 year old in 1964, just the way he said things along with his facial experiments made me laugh out loud. In 7th grade, a few months after this video, in spring 1969, for the last hour of Friday's class, my teacher read us Alan's book "Help! I'm a prisoner in a Chinese bakery!" over the course of a month. It was hilarious!!! Thanks for the remembories!!!

Keep the 60’s broadcasts coming in! I wish the ones before 68 were still being videotaped, but the taping of shows came at a certain time in the 60’s, even give us some Kinescopes!

Alan King was before my real awareness as a kid. Always seemed to be one of the major comics probably because he Was on Ed Sullivan 58 times. But this interview was very informative and I thought it was great!

I was Bar Mitzvahed in the same temple as Alan's son - exactly two weeks earlier (June 1). I went to the temple the day of his son's Bar Mitzvah to, OK, gawk a little and pray a little. Had Johnny or Ed actually attended as King suggests, I would not have recognized them as I didn't start watching the Tonight Show until the next year. I do remember seeing King sitting in the same front row my parents had sat in 2 weeks earlier. Kind of neat. For Alan King fans, there's a KZitem clip ( kzitem.info/news/bejne/0ZV6zax3pXeVqag) of him doing a joke about his Uncle Yoel - 'no-shit Yoel'. Notice the use of the very same Rabbi Chuck in that joke. So there's shtick here, but the Bar Mitzvah definitely happened - I was there!

You'll notice that the Tonight Show Orchestra has been replaced with overdubbed applause and cheesy lounge music. I would guess it had something to do with music copyright issues. The same thing is true for the Friars Club/Dean Martin Celebrity Roast shows that were released on DVD some years back. They seem to reference the fact that the band probably played "And The Angels Sing" in the opening seconds of their conversation. Probably a great trumpet solo by Doc in that performance.

@@dw438 - This was 1968, by then Doc Severinsen was leading the orchestra. It is most glaring, this insert, because this videotape was preserved from an NBC affiliate, given the audio quality which screams 5 kHz telco (Class A/B - frequency response: 100 Hz - 5000 Hz).
