Fact #137939

When:

Short story:

The Beatles, Cilla Black and The Remains are musical guests on tv's Ed Sullivan Show in New York City, USA. Both performances were pre-recorded almost a month earlier.

Full article:

Barry Tashian (singer, guitarist, The Remains) : It was an all-star lineup on that Sullivan show. I found myself standing next to Brigitte Bardot backstage. We were disappointed that Topo Gigio wasn’t on the bill too. We were allowed to do one song. Instead of doing our one hit, ‘Why Do I Cry,’ which would have made sense, Vern [Miller, bassist] and I wrote a song that week and combined it with a rave-up we did for ‘I’m a Man’.

I had a rented amp which was about 25 feet away, and I couldn’t hear what I was playing. I felt crummy about how it came out.
