Sammy Davis Jr Impersonations

[@DrDespicable]

The only thing Sammy couldn't do was live forever - what a colossal talent! Wherever you are, now, Sam, I love you, man.

[@lindak990]

Spot on

[@thomastunezz9459]

Groovy DrD. Groovy.

[@garrettc8490]

Singer, dancer, actor, comedian, impressionist, drummer, gun trick artist and civil rights activist. Arguably the greatist entertainer that ever lived!

[@scorsese1]

Absolutely

[@marchill4668]

Garrett Coble Nothing to argue; that is FACT

[@keenansteverson5100]

I would love to hear the argument for who is a greater all around talent in the history of the business!

[@pauldance7387]

Keenan Steverson Sam has no rivals when it comes to multi talented entertainers, I can think of none, really in a class of his own there cannot be a debate.

[@pauldance7387]

Keenan Steverson no argument clearly the very best all around talent, no debate

[@lairdfentress9712]

Sammy Davis Jr. an amazing Showman who broke barriers with his mad skills, style and grace. Amazing chops and uber cool as well. Love me some Sammy and there will never be another like him. Play his music and videos for your children and grandchildren to carry his legacy forever! Love you man!

[@urielbokobza8998]

That dean martin impression was on point

[@ldbboosha]

Dude, that stand-up set he did in the beginning totally holds up perfectly! That shit was hilarious.

[@dominiccugliari2282]

The only person that actually could do a good Louis Armstrong impression

[@MuhammadRaza-yd6sg]

It's so fucking good too, can't tell the difference from the original

[@ronaldlaury5370]

White, black an brown all loved Sammy.The world lost ah legend!!

[@seanken35]

I absolutely loved this performance. I was fortunate enough to not only meat the grate man but we were also neighbours and good friends with the band leader; the grate Count Basie.

[@MsAppassionata]

Meet and great.

[@bama1usaf]

My ex father in law (session drummer) played for Dean, Frank and Sammy. He said Sammy was the nicest down to earth man in the business. He hated playing for him, he said "Sammy never new how to get off stage, he didnt want the show to end". He laughed and said he was the greatest talent

[@hoderharris]

Great story, Sammy was simply the epitome of God given talent.

[@hoderharris]

Great story.

[@christinamitchell6796]

That's a good story and it's nice too he mentioned the honest thing that annoyed him while still giving he respect. Thx for sharing

[@lilgrease7292]

Awesome

[@earthlove6908]

Sammy Davis, Jr. Super mega talent!!!

[@isolationdisorder]

What an incredible Genius. I have been a fan since the 1970's. His Nat King Cole is ridiculous!!!!

[@maviccabreraballeza6100]

Thank you so much for sharing this. No one deserves the title "The Great Entertainer" more than Sammy Davis Jr!

[@timbrown5840]

IMHO, undoubtedly the most talented entertainer of my lifetime thus far.

[@scorsese1]

for sure

[@MorrisB3]

Talent! Dean Martin impression at the end still gets me. Sammy Davis ❤️

[@1976Markku]

Wipes the floor with all the modern um... "entertainers" Don't make'em like they used to.

[@johnkoziol1537]

Right on, daddy-o! For saying what you did about one of the coolest hepcats to ever grace a stage, I gave you a GREAT, BiG, HUMONGOUS “thumb’s up,” baby!!!

[@jonathanhanser5914]

Watched Sammy n Frank rehearse one day from maybe 10 ft away...and ur right...smoke today’s

[@mytuber81]

Sammy Was the man, great entertainer.

[@ashmyblunt]

Marianne With Frank and Dean as well

[@TheOnIyGod]

Sammy Davis Jr: Drops 🎤🚶

[@Slappaccino]

I come back to this video several times every year to remind myself Sammy Davis Jr. is the greatest vocalist this world has ever known. Freddie Mercury is a very close second, but no one tops Sammy.

[@HeWhoFlewFromInwood]

Ever heard of Aretha, never mind Ella and Billie? We won't even get into Enrico Caruso...

[@pauldance7387]

then again: Jack Jones

[@stanleynkele3649]

Freddie Mercur?OMG give me a break.Did you ever hear of Frank Sinatra,Ella Fitzgerald,Nat King Cole,Whitney Houston,Patti Labelle etc?

[@rawbitz]

Always, at least once a year on new years eve! Have a good one!

[@xhibitjayx84cloak80]

Ever heard of the temptations dumbo

[@novagerio9244]

The truest Mister Entertainment. Nobody beats glorious Sammy!

[@kingkbtv]

The greatest entertainer God made

[@darrenrodway]

Drinking from the microphone, brilliant !

[@edwinmartinez9787]

this man was truly the greatest star performer ever

[@1974Asha]

SO underrated! Its unfair the Lord putting ALL that talent in one person!

[@carmenvallone1247]

Andrea Sims Genius talent there will never be such a multi talent crammed into one fantastic GOLDEN BOY! RIP Mr. Davis

[@jonathanhanser5914]

Not any more underrated than MJ to his generation...his moniker was ‘Mr Entertainment’...a huge entertainer ...in his day

[@georgefarah2130]

Impressions are spot on! Rip Sammy

[@theoriginalbridgetconnors]

Let's see, he could sing, dance, act, do spot-on impersonations & was a fast-draw artist and fancy gun spinner. NOBODY now days has half of his talent!

[@jonathanhanser5914]

Played good drums

[@jeffreylee5276]

I watch this video often and what I appreciate most is his gracious manner. The combined entertainers today don’t possess a fraction of the the talent Mr Davis had and at the end of the song he thanked the audience for allowing him to entertain them.

[@JohnDoe-yo2pj]

back then you can smoke a cigarette and still carry a serious note

[@jonathanhanser5914]

Those guys never never sung even 1 note out of tune...

[@dj13calli]

One of a kind.

[@sunrise8263]

Actually ... ***MORE*** than one of ***EVERY*** kind.

[@MadBrosMedia]

It's so sad that in this day and age their is no performers like this anymore. A true legend. What baffles me is how him and some other singers from that time could smoke while singing and still kill it.

[@malcolmcook7007]

Mr. Davis you are a Magnificent Performer!

[@itzhakmishaeli719]

He was as just the greatest of all and so missed today

[@ian1patterson]

Massive voice from this tiny man....he really was a one off...and one of my favourite vocalists.

[@marinamacariogal6101]

I stumbled on this amazing video not knowing what a wonderful performer this man was

[@DihelsonMendonca]

Jerry Lewis impression was perfect !

[@jezebel324]

SHIVERS after Nat King Cole

[@Kasino80]

jezebel324 Nat King Cole and Mel Tormé were scary accurate.

[@weatherman6436]

Greatest actor alive! I love him!

[@swacfan100]

God given talent. There will never be another Sammy Davis Jr, that brother could do it ALL!

[@Fredboot1]

Mag bloody nificent, can't stop smiling , thanks Mr Davis JR

[@phillipgreer4875]

What an amazing talent this man had.

[@angelrivera4534]

Best of the best incredible talent.

[@deearee63]

The Greatest Entertainer Ever

[@scorsese1]

yup

[@bacht4799]

And we missed entertaining today.. there isn’t no entertainer today.. it’s very political or mean spirited and condescending.. I mean it’s fine we got that today too but a little of someone who just wants to entertain you and having a good time is not a bad thing either..

[@Forever1980s]

I honestly believe that Sammy had more overall talent than anybody else in showbiz. Including his fellow Rat Packers. He could do it all. We miss you Sammy! 🥃🚬

[@BLacknesmonstaz]

The best. Period.

[@stevepayne5965]

You know ... it's not every day that you get the chance to see an effortless genius in action on film.

[@thomaschase5525]

Breathe it in folks, you will NEVER see this God tier level of entertainment EVER again! God bless Sammy Davis Jr., Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra. 🙏🏽

[@meinjapan]

just goes to show how many unique and recogneisable singers there used to be...how would you do this act today?

[@alanhelms7448]

Wow. Love some Sammy.

[@alanwitton5039]

A truly great artist and entertainer

[@ambroseyrodriguez5524]

They just don't make 'em like that anymore.

[@jasonlassiter9229]

What a performance! Sammy was one of the greats...R.I.P. Sam

[@PhilGeissler]

Wow! So talented!

[@SimoPortti]

I was born in the wrong decade. several of them. Oh well. Better make the best of them

[@everettscott4745]

I got quite emotional when SDJ impersonated Nat King Cole. Nat, you're so very very missed.

[@btuesday]

The greatest!

[@benjaminboot2340]

The way he handles the mic after the 8.55 marc just shows what an experienced performer he is.

[@bakayad3196]

Don't make em like that no mo . !

[@davidtierney8825]

I love Sammy and all the crooners/ early and mid 1900's. Great footage but skip to 3:21 for beginning of impersonations. Peace and Blessings :D

[@old65rocker]

9minutes of pure genius

[@peterpiperpuppets330]

what a voice.

[@clemenspuchwein9522]

Great, " which way is the audience" I love it.... thanks for uploading

[@toniwilson1579]

Just a question that never be answer but when he said my good pal that was here earlier this evening Mr Dean Martin ... you saw a arm handing him a drink and then a big laugh. My though just then wondering if it was Dean giving him his drink. It would be funny.

[@sharonmills952]

Fabulous!

[@thomasmcclean4352]

Excellent

[@geoffreyjames5556]

TALENT!!!!! no other way to say it.

[@ndthomp]

His stage exit is better than most shows these days

[@wjack4728]

Genius entertainer!

[@gerorase]

Sammy jr uno de los mejores en el escenario le da viva a sus canciones

[@Firebirdarisefromashes]

I have no idea who he is impersonating but it's hilarious 😂 😂 this is so cool to go back in time ❤. What a classy man

[@mickj.147]

Absolutely brilliant, legend.

[@byzenteendutchies8096]

One for my BWAAYBE...

[@johnkoziol1537]

I said it before and I will say it again here and now. If there is a more versatile entertainer than Sammy Davis Jr. then I have yet to have heard of him.

[@thomasmcclean4352]

Sammy Davis Junior, absolutely perfect comments on Racism that was abound at that time. Frank Sinatra, simply wouldn't put up with it. Great Kudos to ALL OF THE RAT PACK, ABSOLUTELY EXCELLENT PERFORMERS, NEVER TO COME AGAIN.

[@tommyhaynes521]

WOW !! What an entertainer

[@adriannefarmer3446]

Greatest entertainer bar none. No one has that much talent any more.

[@tonerbilly]

Sam was an alien no human could possibly be that talented 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@desleykakoulidisgallaway3382]

How eloquent.....what an amazing instrument he can do anything with it..... and he smoked

[@ralphman8252]

Bed cover pst pst "You in the wrong group"

[@ericwilliams2122]

what a God!!!!!!!!!!

[@Glen48m]

Did Boot Camp 3 times because no one know what to do with him being Black,,,Cadillac redesigned their Steering wheel after he lost an eye..Credit to Dean and Frank to be his friend..

[@rbianca1]

Genius!

[@irishsetterarchie]

Wonderful talent, Mr. Sammy Davis Jr.

[@HeWhoFlewFromInwood]

more Mel Torme!

[@Katiedid93]

Sammy was no fool. He did a Jerry impression right after Dean. 👀

[@AnhTran-fd2md]

Lol if I were the audience I would sweat intensely being nervous for him 👁👄👁

[@PaulDA2000]

Why is there always one idiot in these comments? Take your stupidity somewhere else.

[@davesmurf6693]

Mr Entertainer...........

[@robertkoch618]

Which way is the audience pally? Hhahahaha!

[@2000Cowboys]

The book ( Deconstructing Sammy ) covers this very well.

[@connieriopelle2145]

Brilliant

[@ESMERALDADUALIPA-mh3qj]

Nice one

[@mickjimi]

Sammy was the best of all of us!

[@andreandre7055]

What Giant!

[@snibslfc]

Frank said ...be there and my word you was sammy....Genius

[@AlmiNia]

Why can't I thumbsup this more than once

[@grassshadow1]

The Jerry Lewis broke me up

[@OpusKingOfficial]

Bennett was a bit off but that Nat King Cole gets me everytime

[@JebHoge]

I just love how exuberant the Bennett impression is. It gets a lot of laughs.

[@samray3297]

Entertainment was made for HIM!

[@streetjunkie2086]

He defined what entertainment was,

[@lindaeasley5606]

Sammy was a remarkable impressionists . He made a record singing the song Because of You in the voices of famous singers and actors including Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis

[@mroberts4847]

What a class act man. What happened to this country

[@anthonyhilton1709]

Listening to him give that description of being black was chilling. The laughter like Dave Chappelle said are they laughing at me or against me.

[@lilgrease7292]

Love him 🙏

[@carltrotter7622]

When he sang as Nat King Cole, it was, as if for a moment, as if Nat was alive and crooning again.

[@DJF1985]

What a TALENT!!! WOW

[@MorrisB3]

Funny stuff. Even better talent.
