Carol Burnett is still with us. She's in her 90s. Bless her. I grew up with these entertainers. I used to watch variety shows in the 60s when I was a kid. It was a great time.

Back when Hollywood had talent.

More talent in those four people than all of today's 'stars' combined.

Pearl Bailey is fabulous a real show stopper. I love her improvisation is dynamic and fits her singing so beautifully.

I love Pearl Bailey she's so charming graceful and beautiful

Amazing they all caught every hat and cane at the end. Wonder how many takes that took? Oh wait, this is when people practiced, rehearsed, and had talent!

And to think that with only three TV networks, we used to get entertainment like this EVERY WEEK! One can only sigh....

And it was quality entertainment too.

R.I.P. Bing Crosby (1903-1977), Pearl Bailey (1918-1990) and Bob Hope (1903-2003). Carol Burnett is the ripe old age of 88 years old. Bing and Pearl died in their early 70's and Bob Hope lived to the ripe old age of 100 years old!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks to Pearl and Carol, really amusing wry talents played out. Those two guys just did great bold routines. Love them.

Four wonderful Souls. and we were blessed to enjoy and love them. ✨🕊✨

My God, the talent. And a big production number. Bob, and especially Bing, were getting up there in age, but once on stage they shed years before your eyes.

What a wonderful treasure this video is! Thanks SO much for sharing! There will never be others like these four Great Entertainers! Wow!

..."I'm so glad we had this time together...to just to have a laugh and sing a song...." AH !!!Let's PLEASE....bring back the GOOD OLD DAYS & NIGHTS OF TV & SONG !

What a bunch of talented people!

Song BY Stephen Sondheim from his musical 'Company' WITH A FEW CHANGED LYRICS.

I miss all these great performers! So it's great to have these recordings!!

Pearl, could sing the note off the page. And I always thought of Carol as a comedian but that woman could, also sing! I miss the days when Hollywood did their job, and simply, entertained with their talent.

Wow! These four incredible talents worked HARD on this number. It's almost as if they were performing in an opera. An eight minute musical number put together, probably, in about a day, is no easy feat. I think it's wonderful how the respect the original intention of the number - and still find room to bring their own personalities - and a few old tunes - into the medley. This is definitely on of my KZread favorites!

Star Sky I doubt they worked HARD on this number. Pearl was phoning that performance in along with fumbling the words... Bob and Carol wereless than stellar with the vocals also, they were good with their signature songs. And Bing wasa little better than the rest, thats because it was his show and he had more time, I suppose

WONDERFUL!!

Gosh, I'm 53 and Bob was all over the tv. In The early 80's. I fell in love with the most incredible human (I was 12,). And then my mom surprised me with tickets. I didn't laugh once¡ but I was in total shock, the only child at a nightclub. I wish I wasn't so shy, but hey... I saw him, he read my letter stating "money for me?" While Deloris sang Swonderful. As GREAT as it was, I couldn't ask him for his autograph. I mean, he's my idol, I'm the only 12 yr old at The joint. But hey im546

God! So great! No politics! Fantastic

Wonderful!

Brian Turner: Pearl Bailey received an honorary Tony Award for HELLO, DOLLY! and that wasn’t mentioned. But I don’t believe that Carol Burnett as 3 Tony Awards; what shows?

@@johnpickford4222 The wiki page I was using, misled me. It says this " She also received 3 Tony Awards and 3 Grammy Awards nominations, winning one of each.[62][63]" If you don't finish the entire sentence you just get "she received 3 tony awards and .... It turns out that she 1. won special award in 1969 (but I have yet to learn exactly what for) . 2. She was nominated for Once Upon a Mattress and 3 nominated for Moon over Buffalo in 1994. I apologize for the confusion.

Back when you had to have talent to be famous!

I wonder why they didn't say how Bing and Bob really met. In front of the Frier's Club in New York.

girls still fall at his feet.. he trips em with his cane :)

Hate to have to say it, but Burnett was outclassed.

How aq'😅😅😅😢😢 6:54

I love this video of my aunt Pearl Bailey. I’m Pearl’s nephew and I’m producing a show in NYC in October honoring her and Uncle Louie. Check out at pearlmaebailey . com We are being funded by donations from friends, family and patrons of the arts on GoFundMe.

Plot twist, Bing beat the shit out of them after the show.

I would have watched it, but knowing how untalented Bailey is, I "Walked on By."
