- TriviaLionel Hampton was scheduled to perform during the last eight minutes of the show and perform a new recording called "Railroad," but the special ran out of time only 30 seconds after Lewis introduced him and brought an abrupt end to the special, not even leaving enough time for ending credits to run. Newspapers at the time reported that although Lewis apologized for this, many in the studio audience were expressing aloud their opinion as they left the studio that Lewis may have been afraid that Hampton would upstage him. Asked about the situation later in his dressing room, Hampton shrugged and said, "No comment. It was Jerry Lewis' show."
