Redd Foxx and Scatman Crothers did it with such ease! No straining and tiresome emoting. Love them both. These days everybody needs AutoTune? I'm 63 and I give today's music a pass -- big time.

Fred has a wonderful voice. R.I.P

One of the great moments in Sanford & Son history... Great musical chemistry between Redd and Scatman. Love this version of the song and how they play off one another.

You can't watch this without thinking how much we miss these stars -- Red Foxx and Scatman Crothers. Lovely song. Their warmth was always felt with everything they did even when it was a low-key duet. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Love these guys always!

NOW THIS IS TALENT ! SCATMAN CROTHERS AND RED FOXX !

Scatman Crothers did the voice of Scat Cat in Disney’s Aristocats. Louis Armstrong was initially supposed to play the role that Scatman ended up doing. Louis recorded an album of Disney songs in 1968 and a preliminary drawing of Louis Armstrong’s character was on the liner notes. Louis got very sick near the end of 1968 and was inactive for most of 1969 and into 1970. He resumed performing in 1970 but on a limited basis. His health continued to fail in 1971 until his death on July 6, 1971.

When Fred is not trying to be a clown and singing “How can I be sure”….. this dude can sing!!!!

At the very beginning, look at the expression on Lamont's face. In real life Demond Wilson plays jazz drums. The expression on his face was not scripted. No actor can act the feeling a real musician gets from making music. He can feel the music that Scatman is laying down.

Foxx & Scruthers came from a period of entertainment where performers had to do a bit of everything. Scatman could act & be funny , Foxx could sing a bit etc. We should never lose this part of our history, it is at the roots of American music & as we move forward, should be respected as such.

@jrsmith1998

Nah. Red Foxx can sing more than a just a bit.

Redd Foxx's phrasing is crazy! What a voice! 💜💜💜 There's nothing better than organic artists that have multiple talents. It's like they can do nothing wrong, art is just "in" them.

This is epic! A beautiful rendition from two icons! Scatman and Redd

As long as it’s free might as well give me 8 bars.

Such a genuine look on Demonds face. He witnessed greatness live on the spot.

Just a damn classic. I love it.

That's the best scene on Sandford and son since the BB King singing at the club with Ester, Bubba, Lamont,Woody and Fred scene. Great Duo

Old clips like this make me miss my granddad so terribly. 😔

Bowlegs - Uh, Lamont, gimme mah guitar ova there..... Fred - Give him his gui-tar, Dummy

Fred: "YEEE....OWWWW!!!" My favorite by Fred. Classic episode. Miss the old natural actors n actresses.

This is so my fave❤🎵 .. I didnt realize this was a Sinatra song until this yr 😂

Fred G Sandford with the Great Scatman Crothers. Gotta Dig this!

They NAILED that!!!!!!

How can 43 people NOT like this? Even Lamont cheered up at the end.

>Sighsigh< "here Are your eight bars now..."

Scatman and Redd. A sublime classic.

Scatman had such a effervescent personality . Pure joy!

One of my favorite songs on the show.

I love hearing Fred singing. Amazing singing voice

Beautiful performance!!!

Wow!!! What great music chemistry. I smile every time I see/hear this. Such great talents. R.i.p to both Scatman and Redd.

May 23: Happy birthday Scatman Crothers. Thank you and God bless. RIP

Fred G Sanford Killed this tune!

A match made in heaven- Fred Sanford & Bowlegs- shup, shup shup, shup, shup shup shup, shoo be de day do, to which Mr. Stone replies I love it, I love it! Another top 10 best episode of the whole Sanford & Son series!

You can tell just by watching this masterpiece, that these two men loved each other dearly. RIP to REDD & SCAT.

Redd was a national treasure.

My favorite Billie Holiday song... Redd Foxx style 😎

Fun fact: Redd Fox started off a singer who moved to NY with his band mates before taking on comedy

11 Fish Eyed Fools don't like Great Music...

FREAKING CLASSIC!!!!!

I absolutely love this!! I miss tv like this!! Clean fun!!

Scatman and my dude Red Foxx, or should I say that's Fred S A N F O R D (Period). Man this brings back so many memories. So much time have passed and so many loved ones and friends have passed on. I'm happy and sad when I watch this masterpiece.

Next to Lady Day's, the best version! And hers wasn't televised. The low response is a sad thing - truly this is a work of art.

Legendary moment

Well i think 5 times of watching this in a row is enough.....for now...lol

My favorite episode ❤❤❤

Redd Fox has had the voice for the Blues or Jazz. He could do anything he put his mind to.

I absolutely love him singing.He was a wonderful funny man. The BEST!!!

definitely one of my favorite renditions of all of me

Always loved his unique and raspy voice

Sanford and Son's finest moment. Love the entire series, and this is the best of the whole series.

Left me crying with delight! So much fun!

YOU GOT IT FRED TAKE IT BABEEEEE

I can’t possibly watch this without thinking of the Shining!!

Does anyone know if Redd Foxx ever did a music album? I know he did a blues album when he was in his early 20's, but I LOVE his aged singing voice of his later years. It reminds me of a guy who lived in my neighborhood growing up who everyone called "Mr. Chillbill". Guy would sit out on his porch picking and singing all the time and he loved it when us kids would sit and listen. Redd sings just like him.

Fantastic. So much fun and so much talent!

love this and the Foxx

Priceless.

Scatman. So talented and versatile.

The best episode by far

Scatman Crothers & Redd Foxx sounding great together..

Absolutely love it!

I believe Redd Foxx could have made a singing career if he wasn't in comedy.

I remember being amazed when I saw this for the first time because I didn't know he could sing!

Awww one of my favorite songs just went to a higher level. happy tears. I Like, OLE!

Redd Foxx was cute as a button in this one...

cant help but smile

I was just watching this tonight on Me Tv. What an awesome program from my childhood.

Redd Foxx had a singing charm like Louie Armstrong. Couldn't really sing, but you couldn't listen without having a smile!

scatman & fred: cute rendition of a great oldie!

Just superb entertainment!!!

I remember the scene didn't know the song, then later learned the song and loved it. Then realized that was the song Scatman and Red Foxx were singing. Gotta love those moments

I know this was made forever ago but i love this song so much im going to be listening to it a lot now its such a great song they should be making more of these duets these days

This was just great!

Love All of Me by Fred Sanford. I added just that part to my music playlist.

Real performers !

One of the best version of the song))

R.I.P. Redd Foxx And Scatman Carothers

2 great entertainers!!!

I love it!.. Fred Sanford was the best!.

20th Century America joyfully summed up in 64 bars.

I love this song! Thanks for posting a video that focuses just on this song.

Scatman Crothers was excellent in The Shining.. :)

An Incredible Performance!

Love it. :-)

if you look at how Red Fox acts, Bill Cosby used to imitate his moviements and even the dressing in the cosbys. the braces.. everything.

You've gotta love it!!!!

Redd Fox Could do it all And do it great

This is so Awesome

WHAT A PERFORMANCE !

Scatman Crother, good singer.

BLESS YOUR HEART

that might have been 16 bars lol... or maybe im wrong.. but this show is still FUNNY!!!! hes a LEGEND!!

Who else loves sandford and son
