Sammy Davis Jr.
Sammy's Back On Broadway
1965 Tri-Color Steamboat Label Stereo Original In Shrink Wrap. Appears Unplayed. “Although The 1965 Album Was Filled With Concurrently Modern Selections, The Mixture Of Enduring Classics And Lesser-Known Material It Further Exemplifies The Artist's Impeccable Taste And Performance Style. What Sammy Davis, Jr. And/Or Broadway Collection Would Be Complete Without A Nod To Anthony Newley And Leslie Bricusse? There Are, In Fact, A Trio Of Tunes From Their Most Recent Offering At The Time, The Roar Of The Greasepaint...The Smell Of The Crowd. These Include The Boundlessly Joyful Opener "A Wonderful Day Like Today" And The Refined And Jazzy "Look At That Face," As Well As One Of The Unmitigated Highlights, A Sexy, Mod, And Deliciously Swinging Interpretation Of "The Joker." The Richard Rodgers/Stephen Sondheim-Scored Do I Hear A Waltz? Produced A Pair Of Outstanding Entries As Well. While The Lilting Title Track Recalls Some Of Rodgers' Work With Former Partner Oscar Hammerstein II, It Is The Gorgeous And Haunting "Take The Moment" That Makes This Platter Particularly Memorable. Of Further Interest Are The Heartfelt "Sunrise, Sunset" From Fiddler On The Roof, "The Other Half Of Me" -- Which Davis Sings With Such Verve It Seems Practically Autobiographical -- And The Perennial Favorites "Hello Dolly" And "People." Lindsay Planer, AMG.
