I totally agree, people like Sammy were the real deal. There will never be people like that again, that era has long past. Glad we have things like this to remember them by and show our kids. R.I.P Sammy!
what I miss about the tonight show and entertainment like this, is you don't see the magic like this anymore. Sammy, just being his natural self... a true entertainer. not one trying to pitch a movie or sell there record.
When you see Sammy doing stuff like this, it shows that even thoguh he was from the old jazz era, he was more than familiar with the Soul and Rock era's innovations and styles too, mainly because their base is in older things anyway
I`m so glad that I actually had such good taste in music that I was able to admire and appreciate Sammy already in my early teens. I`m 40 now, Sammy is a big influence on my life.
Because I tell the truth...I understand, truth is your enemy and as a totalitarian any avenue for truth must be ended. Sammy was a fine republican. And you're the reason YouTube SHOULD exist, because without your idiocy for all to see it would remain hidden and unchallenged. Thank you.
You just don't see this type of talent anymore. We could learn a lot from the past. So many of today's performers rely on effects - most would not make it if they had to stand alone on stage. Sammy Davis is untouchable Great video.

A hellish job for the bass player to find the chords of 'Tie A Yellow Ribbon' at the drop of a hat, and in the right key.

He is not only singing it, he's become the music itself and mixed it with the mood he's in. Fabulous!!! Thanks.
