Groucho sings EVERYBODY WORKS BUT FATHER & FATHER'S DAY

[CarGuyZM10]

Sehr Gut!

[mattybock]

in freakin' yiddish? groucho could do it all, and probably still does if he'd ever come out of retirement. (sticks head in sand and enjoys the smell)

I sing Father's Day for my father every year.

I discovered Groucho 40 years ago, I bought books about him and asked to stay up late to watch this interview and because of him I find humor in everything. Thank you so much Julius.

I'm 53 and discovered Groucho as a teenager also. I still remember the first Marx Brother Movie I saw...Horse Feathers, on the 1:00 PM movie on Milwaukee's Channel 18. Groucho was the original rebel (well, after Chaplin), and the classic American Rags to Riches Story.

@TheAmazingRoger I echo your sentiments word for word.

Grouchastic!

Love it! I so wished they had a DVD of all his best songs.

There will never be another like him.

I knew Groucho was funny qnd intelligent but this clip showed me how multi- talented he was. Thanks for posting.

On CBS Sunday Morning today Anthony Mason paid tribute to his father and stepfather with the Groucho Marx-Harry Ruby song he does here. And Groucho's comic timing is priceless--when the backstage bang takes place at the one minute mark he's doesn't miss a beat.

Who better to celebrate Father's Day than the man who said of bigamy, "yes, and it's big of me, too." Thanks for a Groucho moment I had never seen before. Happy Father's Day.

I remember hearing these 2 songs on Groucho's live album, "An Evening with Groucho", which he recorded at Carnegie Hall. He did not sing the 2nd verse of "Today Father is Father's Day", however: I've never heard it before! Thanks, cavettbiter, for posting this great video and the German lyrics for "Everybody Works But Father" What year was this Cavett episode first broadcast?

@johndcorr 1968 is what imdb says. :)

[jmccracken1963]

GREAT CLIP!!!!! Thanks for sharing this.

"According to our mother you're our father, and that's good enough for us."

LOL

[williamlitzler]

Happy Fathers day!

[radiodurans]

haha during his story from 0:36 - 1:05, it is absolute brilliant how groucho doesn't miss a beat after the incident at 1:01 :).

Is is possible to compile a list of the 20 greatest figures of the 20th century and not include Groucho? Impossible.

Groucho! What a delight.
