Ole Blue Eyes

Sammy Davis Jr. may have been the best singer of the bunch imo.

the chairman of the board, of course β€” his singing talents were a pure gift; he didn't have to work at it like the others.

ps β€” they referred to themselves as "the clan"... only outsiders called them the "rat pack" after bogey died.

Anyway, they had a ball, playing together. I grabbed this link of a whole concert. Hope you all enjoy

Sorry, have to disagree about the others having to work at it - Have you never watched Dean Martin singing seriously?
If you call that working at it, we have a totally different idea of 'work'

beautiful dino reference! -- ha-haaa!!

well played!

Dino does it for me. 🎡 Everybody loves somebody...sometime...🎡

reply

Me,as well. He was the only one without Barbara Streisand like aspirations. He was like us---sit on a couch, just sing "Everybody loves somebody sometime".

reply

Yes, he always struck me as a natural singer; he just sang and didn't try to stylize every song. When he did his variety show in the late 60s to early 70s he didn't rehearse - everyone else did - he just walked into the taping and did it. Maybe that's why it was so good - it came across as relaxed as he was.
