I've been trying to find this episode of the Steve Allen show. Can't find it anywhere. Such a fun rendition of this classic from 'My Fair Lady'. Sammy was the best!
I find myself laughing joyfully with a tear in my eye.
The older I become (40) the more I see how incredible singers and performers like Sammy, Frank, Dean, Nat, Ray and a few others were (and still are) the real deal.
I truly miss these performers and with these nostalgic gems on youtube Ill be smiling all day.
I realize now what my father was saying all along.
OK I am very curious. I noticed a 4 star as opposed to 5! Please who is the person who rated I could Have Danced All NIght by Sammy with Steve A playing piano? Does this person need G-d in order to give 5 stars. Give it to Sammy. He deserves a 100 stars. (and then some)
Again a huge thanks to YouTube for their brilliance. As a business and vision they deserve the 100 plus stars as well.
Does anybody else see that? No backup dancers, no crazy lighting, no lip syncing, no scanty dressing. Just some music and two guys who probably loved performing better than we loved watching. Entertainment today is a total sham. Thanks again, Joe.
It's people like Steve and Sammy that helped make this country the greatest nation that it is. We need entertainers that have real talent, not brats, like what we have today. Rich, and spoiled brats with NO TALENT. I can't even turn on the TV anymore.
I am lost for words, this is MUSIC and DANCE, look at the * Stars * we have today, they are NOTHING compared to this!!

Steve Allen was an entertainment genius. Sammy Davis had limitless talent. Wish they both could have lived forever.
