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.

Speeches like this used to be shown on prime time tv as entertainment of our historical past.
And to these words, Mr. President Lincoln, you will never die, amen.
One of the greatest speeches of all time and so well read
RIP and long live Hal Holbrook (February 17, 1925 - January 23, 2021), aged 95
You will always be remembered as a legend.
It is amazing me that this was prime time entertainment in the early 60's. People were much wiser and more thoughtful than we are today
I was going to write the same thing ... thanks. Yes, our country has changed much in 55 years.
Agree with you because there's no doubt about it!
Yes and actually EDUCATED.
I haven't met everyone from either today or who were around in the 60's, so I greatly hesitate to make such a sweeping judgement...
@@UrbanCohort thanks for exemplifying the kind of intellectual vacuousness I was describing
Outstanding. Mr. Holbrook did a great impression of our 16th president.
Perfect delivery. Thank you Hal.
Greatest speech ever imo.
If modern politicians had a tenth of Lincoln’s intellect, the world today would be a better place.
Excellent bit of history. 👏
The absolute best interpretation of Lincoln's 2nd Inaugural Address is the one by Daniel-Day Lewis in the movie Lincoln. You can find it here on KRplus.The crowd in period uniforms, etc. It's as if you are actually there in 1865.
See Lincoln's brief farewell address when he left Springfield for DC in 1861. An extemporaneous speech that covered everything and was perfect for the occasion.
I somehow managed to reach my twenties without ever having read or heard Lincoln's Second Inaugural Address.
I first read those words off the wall of the Lincoln Memorial, in letter the size of the palm of my hand, after I had looked up at the famous statue of Lincoln himself.
Imagine reading those words for the first time in a Confederate newspaper in the last days of the war, or hearing them read from the platform of a railroad depot in a Southern town while hearing the rumble of cannon fire in the distance.
How terrifying would those words be?
How much would you fear the coming of Judgment Day?
How right would you be to tremble...?
That's what they ought to be teaching in school this day 3/18/2023
This will be with all day!! "When are we gonna teach the world to sing in Perfect Harmony!?" 🕊~🌏~🕊
Thank you for sharing! 💖
Unfortunately our kids are on Tik Tok instead of seeing this😢
Indeed 😢
Not if we make tik tok American
You should take into consideration, although his voice was higher pitched and full of pioneer colloquialisms , which was not popular with more urban audiences back then, he was able to hold a New York City crowd spellbound for over an hour during his Cooper Union speech and at its conclusion, brought down the house.
What is so surprising about this is that Hal Holbrook is playing Lincoln here and in 2012 he played one of Lincolns advisors and founder of the Republican party in the movie Lincoln.
He also played Lincoln in a multi episode series which is the best portrayal of Lincoln INHO.
Great speech.
Now we have Big Brother and Survivor on TV. Why can't intelligent TV like this be mainstream programming?
A few years later, Holbrook threw all he knew into the early miniseries, "Sandburg's Lincoln " I'm not aware of it being shown anywhere recently. I'm not sure if it's because Sandburg was written off as a hagiographer like Joseph P. Lash was for Roosevelt (rightly, if the tv adaptation was any indication).
Hearing it again, I'm struck by just how much of a deep deep faith in God permeated Lincoln's character and spirit. The heart of the speech-- about prayer and human judgment versus God's judgment, is better than most sermons preached from today's pulpits or platforms. Two quotes in particular: "It may seem strange that any men should dare to ask a just God's assistance in wringing their bread from the sweat of other men's faces, but let us judge not that we be not judged," and "if God wills that . . .every drop of blood drawn with the lash shall be paid by another drawn with the sword . . ." Oh that leaders of men could write/orate like this today!
Not bad.
some versions of this speech are edited on you tube
One of the best renditions by Mark Twain impressionist Hal Holbrook. Couple of problems: the Battle Hymn at the end made the performance sound overly sentimental which was not Lincoln's intent. Secondly, Lincoln did not have a deep voice; it was more higher- pitched than Holbrook's. Still over all one of the best recreations of Lincoln's 2nd Inaugural.
See Holbrooks portrayal of Lincoln a couple decades later. He gets the chirpy country voice Lincoln historians describe. Here, his voice is not that deep, at least not as deep as many portrayals of Lincoln by others
@@georgestevens1502 Well, it's still pretty deep for Lincoln. One of the reasons Lincoln could not make any money as a speaker was probably due to the pitch of his voice. If his voice were recorded or broadcast, as it is today, he would never have made it as a politician either. I think Lincoln's power was not in his voice, but in his words, and in his ideas.
@@VernCrisler He did make money as a speaker, quite a bit of money, in court as a trial and appellate lawyer. He also won the debates where he had to speak outside to large crowds. He voice would start at a high pitch but would also bottom out the longer he spoke. I think you being too hard on Abe's voice. No one can say for sure how the tenor of his voice would go over under modern conditions.
@@georgestevens1502 No, I think you misunderstand. When I say he tried to make a living as a speaker, I mean on the lecture circuit. He failed at that. But yes he was a fairly successful lawyer, politician, and debater before he became President.
@@VernCrisler I've never seen any account saying that Lincoln tried to "make a living" on the lecture circuit. You're missing what he set out to accomplish with public speaking. For example, he wanted the politicos in New York and elsewhere to see him and understand he was worth supporting politically. That was worth more to him than speaking fees. And he accomplished what he set out to do; become a viable national candidate. The Cooper Union speech made him a supportable candidate for president. He was not a failure as an orator. Had he been a failure as an orator he would never have even become a candidate, let alone a President. The power of his oratory was also how he become prominent regionally, before the Cooper Union speech, with the famous Lost Speech where the crowd was so enthralled with his speech that even the newspaper reporters didn't take their usual dictation of the speech for reprint. Abe had larger purposes with his speeches than mere speaking fees.
Abraham Lincoln would have made an excellent modern-day Democrat.
And no woke crowd to decry his "racism" either. I miss the America I grew up in.
Can you imagine Donald Trump being conciliatory to a defeated foe? Of course, Trump would have been on the side of slavery in the first place...
Hal Holbroock was an amazing actor.
That man was Mark Twain.
March 4 1865
