Gilbert Price sings "Old Man River" on the Ed Sullivan Show, 1967

On Sunday nights, MeTV used to run "The Best of the Ed Sullivan Show" after "Columbo." MeTV rearranged its schedule, and now "The Best of the Ed Sullivan Show" comes on after "Monk."

An episode was on last Sunday night. I believe it was from April 30, 1967. It featured a performance by Gilbert Price. I wasn't familiar with him. I should have been.

Ed Sullivan, April 30, 1967
