    Yeah she's the Queen and first female rocker, paved the road for the ones during her and after, sang in 15 different languages and their is bunches of other legendary facts to go over about her lol. The hall of fame picks who they want in it, it's all kinds of artists, genres and manipulated quite often by current attention on some famous people who are doing something big at the moment and then they hurry and include them. Some of them should have already been in it decades ago.

    Love when Connie does her songs live. She puts so much into them. I'm so glad I found this. The one I want most is when she was on the Bell Telephone Hour. This sound of Mammy is very similar to At The Copa album but again seeing her do it is great. I hope some more of these treasures of Connie can be found and posted.

    This was a great performance showing what a seasoned professional Connie was at so young an age, about 20, I think. Her voce is great in almost ever genre. Although i grew up in the UK and i was about 13 then, I dont' think I saw this show then. I really got into Connie and her music after hearing and buying "Everbody's Somebody's Fool". Lonnie Donegan was very good too and they sang very well together. Connie did a fantastic cover of Al Johlson's "Mammy".

    It always kind of surprises me to encounter how many American singers were significantly popular in other countries, even singing in other languages, as Connie also did. Of course in Britain that wasn't necessary, but obviously she was well known there in 1958.

    I can confirm that this is from Saturday 13th September 1958 on ATV [UK] 20.00-21.00 full show. She was also in an earlier show VAL PARNELL'S SATURDAY SPECTACULAR on Saturday 16th August 1958 with guest CONNIE FRANCIS, EARLE AND VAUGHN... don't know what Connie sang,but i presume it could be Who's Sorry Now? +other songs. i wonder if you can get this one two.

    Lovely to see this archive performance performance by Connie Francis was this show just a one off special or were more made? Lonnie Donegan had such a lovely time with all his guests on his various TV specials any footage of the wonderful Alma Cogan from these shows? I met Lonnie once quite a few year's ago now really nice charming man sat on the edge of the stage chatting about his career and i mentioned Alma to him he loved her dearly and they worked quite a few times together would be great to see more footage of Alma still greatly missed all these year's later! Thank-you for this lovely footage!
