I saw Sammy Davis in Vegas in 1977. One word describes his show. Magic. It was magic! He sang, joked danced and was charming to the audience. What a priviledge to see him perform. Greatest performer ever. He could do it all.

Class. Cool. Boundless talent. All packaged in one of the most gifted entertainers this world will ever see.

The best entertainer of the 20th century. So sorry I never saw him perform in person. He was a beautiful song stylist with an absolutely gorgeous voice.

@henryallan9167 2 жыл бұрын

Saw him the '70s, he was all of the superlatives people gave him and more. Got standing ovations, thunderous applause. Still say to people his talent was quite unbelievable and his sensitivity and connection to the audience was one would call 'magical'. His ability to bring to life a song as intended by the writers and then add his 'heart' I have never seen/ felt since.

I have heard of lot of Sammy's work, and I am still surprised. He is literally soaked in gift and talent even at this late stage of his career. Its impossible to be bored here. One is drawn in....One just HAS to listen what he is going to do with the next musical phrase. How close was he to the end here?

Joe, you are man for this! They oughta teach this kinda stuff in school...Like a music class or dance class. Maybe that'll cut down on the dirty dancing that these kids seem to have to do no matter what kind of song comes on. Learn to have some pride about themselves bc its a damn shame what they calling music and dancing now.

Sadly, the word star is banded about to easily, these days. However, Sammy, Davis, Junior, was a real star, in every sense of the word. I don’t think we will see, the likes of an entertainer, as brilliant as he was, never again.
