Just a 9 year old little girl who was watching Ed Sullivan every Sunday night in the 60s and 70s. I can still hear my sweet Dad calling the rock bands ,a bunch of long hair hippies. Wish I had a time machine to just hear my Dad one more time. Lost him over 45 years ago 💔

CBS yanked the Smothers Brothers off the air for refusing to comply and their show was extremely popular.

Those drums!

The emotions of each member are priceless.

Ed Sullivan certainly knew how to showcase an act.

I went to the coliseum (sp correct) Portland Oregon to hear the Mamas and Papas and guess who the opening act was. Never heard of them. In the darkness as they played I saw people constantly heading up the aisle stairs to the lobby, but I stayed and was in awe of Vanilla Fudge! The pop crowd was not expecting this! I admired their drumming, the song interpretations, the free jams, the vocal harmonies with vibrato, and finally the earthy organ swirls with guitar sweeping above it all had me in a trance until the lights came on before the first act.

My Dad was a huge fan of jazz from the late 50's early 60's and the Motown sound! Vanilla Fudge was one of the only hard rock bands he really liked!

When you see Four Monster Musicians become One Beast!What A Performance!

Fantastic band!

These guys influenced many, many musicians.

Vanilla fudge absolutely kills

VANILLA FUDGE REALLY ARE THE REAL DEAL. BRILLIANT ROCK BAND.

Tim Bogert - one of a kind. RIP

This performance is so good: 1. "We got 4 minutes for a 6 minute song at our normal tempo." "Cut something?" " No, play up tempo!" 2. Everyone solos 3. That bass solo OMG!!! Legend. 6. Zep opened for Fudge in tour. No doubt Bonzo's end to Rock & Roll comes from Carmine's outro here. Appice even got Bonzo a set of those Ludwig's!

The pre-Grand Funk Railroad (can hear the heavy-handed Mark Farner vox). Amusing band. Overkill melodramatics.

Still sounding great in 2023. Originally saw them in 1969 in NYC, 2019 in Old SayBrook, CT and this year in Jim Thorpe, PA….every time I see them my tinnitus gets a little worse….but it’s worth it. 😊

I've always been a huge Bonham fan, and Appice was a big influence on Bonham: those triplets, the big Ludwig drums, the power... obviously Bonham took a lot from Carmine.

Ritchie Is The Reason Why I Even Got Into Vanilla Fudge , I Can See Why He Thinks They’re Great

I can't imagine Ed Sullivan enjoying this group.

i cannot think of any one band that did a more amazing job of taking cover tunes and making them their own than VF. especially the way they took old motown hits and completely reworked them was amazing. i also think these guys don't get nearly enough credit fer their contribution to the heavy metal genre.

Vanilla Fudge is one tasty band

i never expected Napoleon Dynamite to start a band with Pedro and rock on

It’s criminal that they didn’t do original material. Musicians loved this band but critics never got it.

Bassilicious indeed. Miss You my Friend. 🍎

Had NO IDEA they did this till now lol 💜🤘💜🤘💜 And “classic rock” just plays the supreme’s cover 99.9% of the time 🤬

Talk about an LSD freak out on prime time broadcast tv. Has there ever been anything so radical watched by so many people at the same time?

3:26 or 2:22 when he says he had a big influence on Bonham this is it. That drum set doing those types of licks. This is before many people had even heard the first Zeppelin album.

Carmine’s Bonham commentary can be inartful at times, but you’re exactly right about his influence on Bonham. This performance is presaging Zep’s “Rock and Roll” by over 2 years.

Have to admit, I was brought up on Ed Sullivan, and other Great 60's variety shows. One being that between " Laugh in " & The Dean Martin & the Gold diggers " we're some great shows. But dear ok Ed was the first man I imitated. His distinct voice and rhythm is Classic. And this band !? Faaaarout maaan. Never heard of them. Butya gotta dig the scene. Psychedelic .

When many of the acts were lip syncing & miming on his show, VF stood out from the crowd rocking it live & on fire!

Boy that were good!

I’m sure the older demographic that made up the Sullivan show audience at this point enjoyed this hilarious overwrought performance .....

Goddamn. Carmine Appice is the Godfather of metal drumming.

Dam those guys jam there ass off

I wish Cactus got to perform on the Ed Sullivan show (same drummer and bass player as Vanilla Fudge, but they were a way better band). RIP Rusty Day & Tim Bogert.

I think Carmine Appice is probably the best drummer I've ever heard or seen. Cheers from eastern TN

Carmine Appice is fantastic

Agreed!!!

As the 1k Like for all I just have to say one thing Carmine Appice is very underappreciated Ladies and Gentleman!!

Monster sound...almost punk...the influence of the young rascals is really apparent...especially the hammond organ sound...WUNNERFULL

Got to love the Wha Wha pedal...

Mark Stein is a trip to watch

BTW Bonham loved that kit that appice got in touch with ludwig so Bonham can have one. Jimmy page said that those double bass drums were so loud he couldn't hear himself so Bonham dropped a bass.

I want to be 15 at one of their practices in 1966.

Carmine Appice invented playing drums like a rock star.

Adelantados a su tiempo

they tried to repeat their success with another re-working of a motown song. This time it failed. i saw the Fudge,and Carmine and Tim"s other bands Cactus and Beck Bogert and Appice. Tim Bogert (RIP) was a phenominal bassist especially playing alongside Jimmy Mccarty in Cactus and later with Jeff Beck.

""""B3"""" Thank YOU! I always thought it meant...blowing smoke into another via a joint. See there! Carmine & his giant bass drums & huge Toms ♥ "'do the jerk bebe", don't be a Jerk bebe"""""" Much love Mark & crew...KEEP~A~effn~ROCKIN', Dudes!!!!

Aaaaaahhhhhh Carmine!

When interviewed around 1970 when Vanilla Fudge got blown away night after night by Led Zeppelin during their concerts at the Fillmore East, drummer Carmine Appice said that the reason they could never top Zeppelin was that Vince Martell was a mediocre guitarist and was never in the realm of Jimmy Page. And I believe his comment was true. Appice was a thunderous and dexterous drummer whom John Bonham held in awe and even copped his double-bass drum set-up. Tim Bogert was a monster on bass and even Mark Stein was competent on organ. One could only imagine what would have happened had Jeff Beck decided to come on board to replace Martell.

Ed’s head must have been exploding.

Saw the Fudge about 9x As Ritchie Blackmore said “the second best band
