Here's Edie

The Beatles made their debut on The Ed Sullivan Show on February 9, a few weeks before this episode was written and taped, making Mathis's performances even more of interest.

Regulars Mitzi McCall & Charlie Brill continue to provide some of the better comedy bits in the show. John Raitt's baritone voice and Charlie Byrd's blend of classical, bossa and jazz fill out the musical landscape of the episode.

Big Band is once again the show's centerpiece, with Woody Herman and His Band doing a solid 12-minute set.

This episode is a showcase for its singular guest performer, Mr. Mack the Knife himself, Bobby Darin.

Guests in this episode include Terry-Thomas and Spike Jones.

The flavor of Rowan & Martin's club act is in full play in their segment with the orchestra, as is their chemistry in the closing bit with Edie and Andre Previn.

Highlights of this episode are the musical performances of Lauritz Melchior, Count Basie and John Hendricks. The numbers where Edie and Don Chastain join Hendricks for arrangements originally done by the Lambert, Hendricks & Ross are a knockout.
