This man could do it all. Totally underrated compared to his monumental talent. Who since has been able to fill his shoes?
He was amazing!
The most talented versatile entertainer in American history! He could do it all! My personal favorite!
The legend deserves a great movie about his life.
A wonderful idea but who could possibly play him?
A shame this kind of entertainment is now extinct!!! :-(
Awesome Sammy Davis Jr. Never knew he did all these impressions, a true genius..
Love this Man, What a talent. Miss you Sammy.
I've been watching a lot of RUclips, and he may be the most-talented star ever.
He was the best , There will never be another
Sammy was absolutely marvelous. What a performer.
Ah yess the late great & multi-talented Sammy Davis Jr🙌 i loved when he did Dean Martin lol he tried to drink the microphone😄😂
AN AMAZING LEGEND !!!! THE BEST IN THE RAT PACK. HE COULD DO ANYTHING ! SING, DANCE, ACT, IMPRESSIONIST, GUN SLINGER, ETC ALL !
perhaps the most talented entertainer of all times. i wish i had seen the rat pack back in the days, but i´m simply too young....
One in a million performer.
Nice to see...not only to revel in his brilliance but also to see a routine that has been taken by a current artist who doesn't credit his source while basking in the light for himself.
Incomparable talent! What an entertainer. Absolutely brilliant.
RIP Sammy Davis, you're the greatest!
The way he did that Brando impersonation mostly with mannerisms was awesome!!
@mantell honestly i think this style of entertainment and this type of talent became extinct the instant he died. One of a kind he was
You can turn off the sound and still know who he's impersonating. Oh, how I miss him!
wow, he really brought down the house!!
Even with all his talent he was not allowed to stay in the hotels he was performing at!!!
So sad!!! Ridiculous even.
All those impersonations were spot on! Very funny Jerry Lewis at the end.
Sammy Davis was GENIOUS.
Susie
brilliant peformer
Yes Sammy was truly one of the GREATS
Very good impressions.
you are most welcome :) and i have never heard about Brel.then again...i am not from the US and i dont watch Idols,Xfactor or whatever talent hunting commercial crappy show.Its all about "dial now to vote!" and that is considered with a pretty word...entertainment.
Correct. Late at night when I wrote that and forgot most before 1960, Mostly, we have the "Idol" shows and singers of the like. Of the Greatest, was Brel, little known at all in the West (apart from the musical which translated some of his songs into English. His writings are amazing, and I do not believe will ever be equaled. Thanks for the comment!
Sammy = LEGEND
could well be...Danny Kaye did impressions as well tho not on a broad scale as Sammy I think.Great Great talent...dont got guys like around anymore.Allround entertainers that is...
that's funny "This is me.." Telling the audience, The impressiojns are over and now back to ME!
I love this. Also used it as proof to win 20 bucks. A friend didn't believe a dance titled 'mashed potatoes' existed. LOL
Sammy Davis Jr. elevated showbiz to a higher level.
true at that point he was probably still working on the voice, but you have to admit the whole intro that he used leading in was amazingly spot on.
man can singggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg!!!!!!!!!!!
@furrowin
I'm sure he also worked his ass off for it!
😂Marlon Brando 😅
very good
Thank you so much for sharing.
Dean Martin impression LMAO!classic

A one of a kind genius
We will never see the like again, amazing talent.
I loved this so much. It brought all these people back to life.
One of the greatest in the world
Watching Sammy Dance in this clip, I think Alphonso Ribeiro who played Carlton on Fresh Prince, could have played Sammy in a biopic and did a good job, but he's probably a bit too old for the role now.
Deneen Jeffries - Who?
EXTRAORDINARY!👏👏👏👏👏
** No competition **
@Thommy2n Check out Kevin Spacey's Brando on the James Lipton show. It's amazing.
I'm thinking, was he one of the first, comic impersonators? I know he was doing this in the 50's? Acting, singing, acting WHILE singing, dancing, impersonating, comedy. WHAT didn't he do?
After 12 years, saying , playing the violin ...
@thisisamessageto damn straight! lol
who is he impersonating at 5:44
@mantell isnt that just so true
Holy Shit man....
OH AND PHOTOGRAPHER.
OH AND COMEDIAN.
He needed to work on his Brando.
Nothing to work on. UT was perfect
@@silvermann6515 It was okay, but it wasn’t excellent like the others.
