This on Ed Sullivan and has the screams and Elvis talking before singing

I remember that show well, and I loved that song. The cameramen were instructed to not film Elvis' lower body, because Sullivan thought Presley's hip gyrations were too lewd. I think for his second appearance later, they showed him in full view.

One of the most popular female singers of the 50s was Joni James. The guys all loved her, and she could sing. Her career was cut short as she cared for her husband, who was in bad health.

Boy, "In the Still of the Night" takes me right back to junior high school dance parties at classmate's homes. It was one of the best make-out slow dances ever!!...
