In honor of SG's recent winning streak, this week's RadioBlog features The Rat Pack Live at The Sands - Vegas cool at it's best. Back in the day the shows on the strip weren't Celine Dion and Penn & Teller, they were Frank & Dino & Sammy. I think this was the height of their careers, Frank was at the top of his game in 1963-64, Dean & Sammy as well.
You've got to love Frank crooning Call Me Irresponsible, Dean singing Via Veneto (a silly little song that is sexy 'cause he is singing it), Sammy presents All The Way, complete with impressions. I suggest you start at the beginning and enjoy the whole show. Banter and laughs are interspersed throughout - makes me wish I coulda been there. In Vegas. In the '60s. When cool was really cool.
EXCELLENT music choice Voxy! Ahhhh those were the days - those guys were such cool cats. Makes me want to have a martini and put on a Fedora hat.
I was really sad when they tore down the Sands hotel/casino in Vegas.
