  If the Back to the future movies were able to be made 10 years earlier, Art Carney would have made one hell of a  Doc Brown. Love ya Art.❤️

  I’m shocked. I had no idea he played the piano this well. Amazing. Such talent.

  There was more talent on that stage in 12 minutes than all of today's late shows combined

  I loved Art in the Honeymooners. He always stole the show. To see him in this arena, with Johnny on drums is truly special. One more reason why Johnny is the King!

  Art on piano, Sid on saxophone and Johnny on drums. What a way to close the show.

  Mr. Carney’s limp and hearing aid were real. He got them in World War II along with the Purple Heart. He covered brilliantly when he was performing.

  He was only 55 years old in 1973, but he has a good reason for the hearing aid and the limp when he walks. Carney was drafted into the United States Army in 1943[1] as an infantryman and machine gun crewman during World War II. During the Battle of Normandy serving in the 28th Infantry Division,[1] he was wounded in the leg by shrapnel and walked with a limp for the rest of his life. As a result of the injury, his right leg was ¾-inch (2 cm) shorter than his left.[4] Carney was awarded a Purple Heart, the American Campaign Medal, the European–African–Middle Eastern Campaign Medal and the World War II Victory Medal, and was discharged as a private in 1945.🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

  Art Carney on piano, Sid Ceaser on Sax, Johnny Carson on drums.... Wow! This era of show business is sorely missed. True entertainers, multi-talented, and simply fun! Miss these and those like them!
