FROM THE 1960 DECCA LP AND ONE OF THE LAST BEFORE HE JUMPED SHIP TO JOING REPRISE. HE IS ONE OF THE BETTER RECORDS FROM DECCA AND DARN GOOD SWINGING ALBUM. YOU CAN REALLY HEAR THE GROWTH IN SAMMY AS HIS VOCAL POWER IS REALLY MADE OBVIOUS DOWN TO THE LAST NOTE THAT HE HOLD LIKE A CHAMP.
I was fortunate to have met him in `63 at a reception in Soho, London. While i was waiting to get in four young men crossed the blocked-off Street. No one recognised them, they did have some success though.....their name The Beatles......

Wow - study this picture! This is what customers in a nightclub used to look like. Front row center is Mae Britt , behind and to the right is comedian Joey Adams, look at the rapt attention of the wait staff. Great photo! To see him perform this song live, check out the Jerry Lewis Sammy Davis concert tape shot live at Bally's. He was the best!
