Steve and Eydie by Steve Schapiro, 1960s ❤️

[kwebtv]

Steve Lawrence (born Sidney Liebowitz; July 8, 1935 – March 7, 2024) Singer, comedian and actor, best known as a member of a duo with his wife Eydie Gormé, billed as "Steve and Eydie", and for his performance as Maury Sline, the manager and friend of the main characters in The Blues Brothers. Steve and Eydie first appeared together as regulars on Tonight Starring Steve Allen in 1954 and continued performing as a duo until Gormé's retirement in 2009

When he was 18 years old, Lawrence was hired by Steve Allen to be one of the singers on Allen's local New York City late night show on WNBC-TV in 1953, along with Eydie Gormé and Andy Williams. When the show got picked up by NBC to be seen on the national network, becoming The Tonight Show, Lawrence, Gormé and Williams stayed on until the program's end in 1957.

Primarily a singer Lawrence was also an actor, appearing in guest roles on television shows in every decade since the 1950s. After getting his start with Steve Allen's late night show, he was seen in programs such as The Danny Kaye Show; The Judy Garland Show; The Julie Andrews Hour; Night Gallery; The Flip Wilson Show; Police Story; Murder, She Wrote; and CSI.

Lawrence and Gormé starred in the 1958 summer replacement series on NBC, The Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gormé Show. Lawrence made many appearances on The Carol Burnett Show (1967–78), with and without Eydie. The Steve Lawrence Show, with supporting actor Charles Nelson Reilly, ran for 13 weeks in 1965, a variety show that was one of the last CBS television shows to only air in black and white. Lawrence also served as a panelist on What's My Line? (1950–67).

Lawrence played Mark McCormick's father, Sonny Daye, in two episodes of Hardcastle and McCormick. He appeared on The Nanny several times - first as himself in season 2, episode 14, and then as the much-talked about, but never really seen, Morty Fine, father of Fran Fine in a few of the final episodes of the show. In 2011, he portrayed Jack, a wealthy love interest of Betty White's character, Elka Ostrovsky, on Hot in Cleveland. In 2014, he guest-starred in an episode of Two and a Half Men on CBS, and sang the theme song to the parody miniseries The Spoils of Babylon. (Wikipedia)

1985 promo for Alice in Wonderland/Through the Looking Glass mini series. I remember watching the first night when I was very young and being traumatized by the cliff hanger ending, lol. But it's a wonderful version of the story with a star studded cast of classic actors, comedians, and even a Beatle! :D

Black Hole Sun (Lounge Version)

I heard this song recently on Blip.fm (http://bit.ly/a8hu6B) and I wondered how it would go with the music video for the original Soundgarden song. So I adapted it and here is the result... All video was taken from the Soundgarden music video, which you can see here:    • Soundgarden - Black Hole Sun

Steve Lawrence and his wife Eydie. I really liked this guy so much. I loved his guest appearances on The Carol Burnett Show, he was such a good singer and boy was he funny! And to top it off he was a good friend of Jerry's and he and Jerry did some commentery on a DVD set of Jerry's movies that I have. I so enjoyed hearing he and Jerry talking about his movies.
