Besides the fact that Sammy is one of the greatest entertainers in history, this interview also highlights another admirable aspect of who he was. He was not trying to portray himself as perfect, and despite the fact of discussing very unflattering aspects of his personality, he was not defensive or combative. He was brave, vulnerable and integrated- and therefor a true role model. I can´t imagine seeing a contemporary public person behaving in this matter, with such wisdom, truthfulness and self-reflection.

Sammy, I can't speak to your personal peccadillos, except to acknowledge that we all have them, but I am truly blessed to have experienced your live performance. May your soul live on in heaven, and your legacy on earth.

+Hellcrasher Porter It was about 67-68- He was playing at Harrahs and staying at the Villa. An incredible place that you could drive a boat right under the house. Sammy really was a fun guy who liked to party. Living, growing up in Tahoe, I came across many celebrities. Billy Preston was a friend of mine and I lived half a summer with Santana.

Thanks @Tahoedirt for sharing your amazing story on SD Jr. and Lake Tahoe at Harrah's. Did you get to meet or know Barbara McNair too? I've been trying to learn more about her and from what I noticed, she often performed at Tahoe at Harvey's. Which I heard is kind of connected to Harrah's. I know in March 25-April 7, she performed at the Harrah's (one rare time) with Bill Cosby. In June 1967 for a few weeks she performed with Dean Martin's uncle at Harvey's. I would love to know what all stars you gotten to meet and know from the Rat Pack to Barbara McNair! I love those legends of that era!

I enjoyed having to listen to this with just one ear. Fills me with solidarity for Sammy's own physical handicap.
