Shirley Bassey is truly one of God's most precious gifts to humanity.

No miming or autotune needed here just pure talent from fabulous Shirley and not forgetting our other National Treasure Brucie.

Maurice Chevalier, Sammy Davis Jr, Shirley Bassett. What a show. I love the finale.

[@claudiascott6484]

Me too V.C. Sammy Davis took DSB under his wings and became good friends. He told her what not to do when performing in Las Vegas hotels that practiced segregation towards Black performers. Couldn't use swimming pool, sit at the bat, etc. Can you believe such idiocy😔😔😔

[@chippy511]

Fabulous Shirley simply the v dry best singer we have in the uk.

[@tobiasffm14]

Shirley forever - unglaublich!!!

[@richardgornalle4536]

Brilliant singing. It's interesting hearing her young voice, a voice that developed sensationally over the years.

[@BecksPhotographics]

[@joylorcery1024]

What nostalia!!!I I took part in this show as part of the Crazy Gang participation; I didn't know this existed; Is there a recording of the complete show? I only got Shirley Bassey & the Finale.

[@huwzebediahthomas9193]

There she is. 😎

[@brucekuehn4031]

Before James Bond. Sean Connery took the role in 1962 and Goldfinger was in 1964.

[@nthglasScotland]

Thank F! we still have Dame Shirley in this cuntry or we would have been down the toilet a generation ago. I always thought it was 1961 that Helen Shapiro appeared? It must have been 1962?

[@yedis1750]

Sounds like Judy!

[@jeffreyzeiss1326]

Judy Garland never had the voice Shirley Bassey did. Could not match shere power and range and Miss Bassey is not smashed like Judy usually was

[@georgecarne7078]

sends me to sleep xx

[@rupert2591]

+george carne How interesting.

[@jamiecesar3585]

Maybe George just doesn't get it.

[@melgrant7404]

You probably send your self to sleep George

[@v.c.webster9250]

Not exactly something to boast.
