The Rat Pack members were among America’s most famous entertainers in cinema, television, music, and on stage. To this day, they’re considered icons of American entertainment.
Sadly, they’re no longer with us. But we can look back on their incredible lives and admire their struggles to stardom.
Frank Sinatra was the son of Italian immigrants. As a first-generation American, he worked hard to become a major star. He began performing as a musician and singer in his teens. As he grew older, he began performing with big bands and as a solo artist. In the 1950s, he became one of Hollywood’s biggest film stars.
Dean Martin also had a similar career trajectory. He began as a singer and then transition to film and television in the 1950s. He was the host of his own talk show and starred in a series of popular comedy films.
Sammy Davis Jr. was an icon for black American entertainers. The versatile performer had a remarkable career as a comedian and singer. He also acted regularly on television and films. These successes often overshadowed the struggles he had to deal with in a racially hostile country.
Peter Lawford lost much of his wealth as an English aristocrat. Stranded in America, he decided to pursue a career in films to make ends meet. He begun as an extra and soon became a major film star after becoming one of the Rat Pack members.
Joey Bishop became a successful stand-up comedian and soon found himself making regular appearances on popular TV shows. He later transitioned to films and succeeded in both mediums. But behind the scenes, he often had a trying relationship with the other Rat Pack members…
Let’s learn more about how each of the Rat Pack members died and what they achieved…
How Each of the Rat Pack Members Died - บันเทิง
There is nothing like them today. They had class and talent and they had their struggles but they were pure cool. I love how Frank always stuck up for Sammy. I am so luck to have seen them in Seattle in the 80s. Dean was sad though . He died of a broken heart after his son died in a plane crash.
Incredible talent in that group! There is nothing near those legends today in the entertainment business I´m afraid. They could sing, act and entertain a live audience and that´s hard to beat!
Vaudeville is dead. Maybe that's why?
I have the entire Rat Pack C.D.series.
My favourite .
On a little street in Singapore
We have our own ratpack in South Africa.

Tender Tender is the right.
Best number One Cor Cor Cor Uption.
Only three of the rat pack had that special something. Lawford and Bishop lacked what the key three excelled at.
The one thing that bugs me is that people think they can copy the originals. Knock it off. There is and will always be, just ONE rat pack.
The crazy part is, the original rat pack would take it as a compliment so you’re totally wrong lol
The talent out there today is entirely too low to form a new Rat Pack. Also, thank you for mentioning the "original" Rat Pack.
Maybe the Trump family & their crooked crew...
I thought there was only one Rat Pack in the first place!!!🙏👍🤔
@@SLAYERSWINE1 lol🤣
@@mauricedavis2160 The original Rat Pack was made up of Humphrey Bogart and his drinking buddies. One night after coming home late with his friends, Lauren Bacall told then that they looked like a "rat pack." The name stuck and the formed the club. Boggie was the leader and was titled "King Rat." One more nugget, Frank Sinatra was the only member in both Rat Packs.
@@joefaber1381 after my comments, I did say wait a minute, I did remember Humphrey Bogart and Crew being called that!!!...My bad, thanks for the correction!!!🙏👍🤔
No no one today can ever replace the Rat Pack.The talent just isn't there.
We definitely agree. The Rat Pack is a classic that no one can replace.
Have you never heard of the Khardashian's?
@@larryacks6544WHO?
@@larryacks6544 😁😅, they are the Drama Queens with issues version of the Rat Pack! To say the least.
@@larryacks6544 Fruitcake
Ocean 11, nothing better than watching them all together, one of my favorite films!!!
I saw Sammy at a concert in Seattle in the mid-80s. He encouraged people who wanted to take a photo to come down front to take it--otherwise, he would just look like a "Tootsie Roll". Humor and song, what a night! Thanks Sammy!
There will NEVER be another "Rat Pack". Too original, too talented and too extraordinary. Completely unique. Anything that may come close with the contemporary talent may be the ensemble cast of the R.E.D movie series. True, singing and dancing will be missing, but the unbridled joy of all that testosterone soaked talent, doin' what they love is awfully engaging!
Ditto!!
Had the pleasure of seeing Sinatra 7 times and Sammy twice....all before I turned 20 because of my dad who was a Vegas high roller! He was very well connected with guys sporting big pinkie rings. My dad was a “businessman” and never explained to anyone how he made his money. My family is Italian....go figure!
I think I ran into him at the museum.
Sammy never failed to entertain. I saw him twice in the Forest Hills theater and in a Broadway show. The Rat Pack will never be replaced. They are irreplaceable. I'm lucky to have been a part of the audience.
Love Dean Martin….where has this world gone…
Away to infinity, and beyond.....
Love him still! I play his and Franks’ albums frequently ! The best! NOBODY TODAY comes near any one in this group! Very sad though. Nobody will work hours and days to see if they become popular. So they just don’t. Sad.. stop spoiling the children! Stop giving them every single thing they say they want. “Too bad. Work for it!” Is all absent in todays parents. Sad..
You cannot get that much talent all together in one place today, it just isn't out there! Today, it's every man for themselves and it shows. And the music today, well, the natural talent just isn't out there either! Today's stars have all their props, pyrotechnics, keyboards, costumes, amps and posse's, but it's NOTHING like the raw talent there was in the mid-20th century!

I believe they did this in order of their popularity, not in the order they died.
Agreed thanks for putting this together on when they died like the tagline said.

Sammy Davis Jr. lost his eye in a car accident in 1954. He was my favorite Rat Pack member.
Eddie Murphy said he was shocked Sammy Davis Jr. told him he was a into satanism, its in an interview Eddie Murphy had with Jerry Seinfeld in Comedian in Cars. 🤔
Did he ever find it?
Sammy was the most versatile entertainer of the whole bunch, he had a great voice, a great dancer, played several instruments, and could drama act and be comedic, all while living through injustices of that time. Hard to beat Sinatra's and Dean's voices though.
Sammy Davis was an amazing man and talent.
Nailed it!
Agreed, greatest all around entertainer ever perhaps.
@@FactsVerse sammy davis jr didn't pass away in 1994. he passed away in 1990
Loved Sammy, I was at Lake Tahoe when he announced his cancer diagnosis and promised he would quit smoking and beat the cancer. Saw him live one more time.
Peter Lawford (84)--Cardiac Arrest
Sammy Davis jr (90)--Cancer
Dean Martin (95)--Emphysema
Frank Sinatra (98)--Heart Attack
Joey Bishop (07)--Organ Failure
I didn't even have to watch. My dad was a HUGE Sinatra fan, so I was educated on the Rat Pack around the same time I got educated in Elvis 101.
Its a different time , a better time imo , no internet, so no BS , Sinatra was probably the coolest celebrity ever along with Steve McQueen, nobody today can touch that!!
A little know fact about Sammy Davis is that in real life he was one of the fast and accurate on the draw with a revolver in the world. His skill with this was even featured in an episode of "the Chuck Connors series, "The Rifleman" - episode "Two Ounces of Tin"
This is great information, thank you so much for sharing the information about Sammy Davis. What other types of videos would you like to see?
Jerry Lewis apparently was no. 2
I used to watch that. Later, Chuck hosted The Thrillseekers, I think it was.
Nobody could sing love songs better than Dino.If you think you can,step up too the plate.BATTER UP!🗽👍
That's Amore is my favorite Dean Martin song. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
to not too
Dino😍❤
Ocean’s 11 is my favorite movie, and so is Robin and the seven hoods and Sargent’s 3…
Think of them as The Avengers of their day and their talents were their super powers….
you will never see that talent again they dont make them anymore
When Peter Lawford became engaged to a Kennedy, the links that Frank had with the mob was a little more than the Kennedys were willing to bear, so he had to choose. This is the reason Peter did not appear in Robin and the Seven Hoods, being replaced by Bing Crosby. This is also the reason JFK couldn't be seen at Sinatra's place.
Frank Sinatra took it hard being snubbed by the kennedys. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
While there is no evidence Frank was a "made man", he was an associate and a huge earner for the mob. The Kennedy brothers double crossing the mob who got them elected was their undoing.
Frank was buddies with JFK and caroused around with him before Jack ran for president. When that happened Kennedy was told to distance himself from Frank because of his friendship with mafia figures. Frank held that grudge....
@@harrylazard805 JFK's dad struck a deal with the mob for their union clout to get his son elected in return for inner Whitehouse access. The mob held their half of the bargain and delivered all the union votes in a tight election that JFK would not have won without their help.Their WH access turned bogus as RFK began pressing charges against them. They were double crossed and gave the Kennedys their retribution. The mob had the CIA blessing. Oswald was a patsy that was rubbed out by a dying mobster Ruby. But all this stuff is a whole another story.
Frank used to spill more then Joey drank!
There will be only one Rat Pack. They had style, class, talent and humor. The current generation is so different, just the direction, compass is gone in a different direction. Me Too, Cancel Culture and other movements puts the current celebrities under the microscope. The Rat Pack were the pioneers, Kings and had fun,enjoy each other, dealt with social issues. Thanks Lauren Bacall for name! Haven’t seen it since. RIH Rat Pack, Sad, celebrating video of a rare moment in history!
Groups today will never have the style and class they had because they don't want to. Look at all the award shows and how trashy they dress just to get attention just from their looks and bad language. So high school schoolyard mentality.
Very well said. We felt moved by your message. Thank you so much for sharing!
@@spokanetomcat1 I refuse to watch the rewards show today because of the way they dress and act. This cancel-culiture has gone overboard! Even Peter Dinklage is peeved! One restaurant my boyfriend and I liked eating in Marietta, Ga.-Frankie's-has photos of the Rat Trap inside and play their music inside. Certainly more romantic than the rap and hip hop heard in local fast food restaurants today. There was a Snook's, a small black-owned restaurant near me that we also liked to go to and that played the Motown music and that of Nat King Cole and Sammy Davis Jr., but it unfortunately died during the early Covid by 2021.
One small mistake. Sammy Davis Jr died in 1990, not 1994. I remember reading his obituary and he died the same day as Jim Henson.
Point of correction : Mr. Sammy Davis Jr. passed away on May 16th. "1990" not 1994 .
I saw him in his last tour where he took the place of Dean Martin, who was ill. That was the Sinatra tour which also had Liza Minelli. They were fabulous.
Lauren Bacall coined the"rat pack"moniker.🗽👍💕
i remember xmass when dean died. i had "baby its cold out side" by dino, my son came running in and said, "hey dad" dean martin died. i said."your shitting me" we still laugh at that.
You missed out how Sinatra blamed and shunned Lawford after a trip by JFK to Sinatra's place fell through.
Frank Sinatra was brutal to his friends that betrayed him. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
@@harperstacey9604 Ya but Lawford didn't betray him. He just blamed lawford for JFK canceling staying with him and going to Bing Crosby's place instead. Kennedy and Giancana were both intimately involved with Phillis Mcguire who was introduced to Kennedy by Sinatra. Bobby Kennedy made the call to ditch Sinatra because he was bad for JFK's image.
@@santaclaus3077 the kennedys were so hoity toity. They were particular of whom they hung out with. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
@@harperstacey9604 Only after the fact. Kennedy n Sinatra hung out and Sinatra helped get him elected.
@@harperstacey9604 well they weren't too particular to USE MARILYN AND GET HER KILLED . they were true RATS
NO WAY!! YOU CAN NEVER CAPTURE AND REDO SOMETHING THAT WAS SPECIAL!! ITS NEVER THE SAME!!
We definitely agree! 👍
I have the fortune of seeing a (RAT PACK) bit . It was hillarious . Frank and Dean were supposed to sing a song together and Frank had to stop short and said where the hell is Dean . Dean soon appeared from backstage holding a 3 gallon martini glass , saying I just stopped off for a drink . Hilarious
Sammy Davis Jr died in 1990 not 1994
There will never be a group of gentlemen like this again. No one would pay their dues or work as hard these days .
The good old days are gone. The pandemic has changed everything. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
I will always love the members of the Rat-Pack. They were talented and cool men.
We agree! What other types of videos would you like to see?
mafia boys
No way, there will always be only the original Rat Pack
Nobody (group) can hold a candle to these Iconic Men.
and nobody ever will!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin
What about Sammy Davis, jr.? From Ms. Harper Stacey.
@@harperstacey9604 I love him 2
No one can, or no one will ever come close to these great legends. No one , god bless them all 🙏🏼
Sammy Davis was probably the most flexible talent of the group.
Answering your question on a current Pac, no, there are none who can or should emulate them.
There was a young group of actors that the media labeled as the next PAC in the 90s though. But nothing came about through the hype.
Actually it was in the 80s and they were called The Brat Pack and consisted of Rob Lowe, Robert Downey Jr., Emilio Estevez, Judd Nelson, Demi Moore, Ally Sheedy, Molly Ringwald, Andrew McCarthy, and Anthony Michael Hall. They neither named themselves nor did they purport to be a second coming of the Rat Pack. They were just actors who were friends around the same age who appeared in several movies with each other.
They were all great....everyone has their favorite....mine was Dean......I loved his movies and singing the most...and it's OK if you like Frank better or Sammy better and so on.
when these gentlemen died they took all the class with them. wish i was born in their time. but thank god for youtube.
Loved the Joey Bishop TV show. I would watch it over the big evening shows.
These guys were performers and came out of the early variety shows. There is no such thing now. They had to learn to be versatile. Too much social and political crap going on today to ever get such a group together today.
When Sammy Davis lost his eye, the great actor Jeff Chandler offered to give him one of his own eyes. What a friend! and what a good actor Chandler was, rip.
Know and Hell know , there isn't an entertainer who can hold a candle to those guys in there hey day .
Y forgot shirley macaline and angie dickinson
Shirley maclaine.
Frank refused to preform if they wouldn't let Sammy in. The rat pack help each other and stood strong for Sammy
Frank Sinatra was a true friend to Sammy Davis jr. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
Sammy Davis Jr. actually died on May 16, 1990.
There has never been a group that came close to that chemistry. To quote a line in "Patton"..."Al Glory is Fleeting" and the 'rat pack is no exception.
They will never be equaled.
Liked Sammy as a fast gun on the Rifleman, candyman was good, Dean a good man☝️
Don't forget Peter Lawford's tv series "Dear Phoebe" (1954-1955)
And "The Thin Man".
Peter lawford appeared with Elizabeth Taylor and Janet Leigh in the film, Little women. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
So Peter Lawford was the first to die (1984) and at the youngest age (61).
Steven Torrey.. Lawford had a serious drug/alcohol problem. Was treated badly, esp younger, and esp by his mother throughout his life. Sinatra cutting him off for being a messenger was wrong.
Yes, Peter indeed was the first one to die. 😥
He died penniless, friendless and caked in his own shit, apparently !
@@johnnyhock You'd be advised to read a biography on someone. Esp as you take the time to comment and reduce the person to 3 adjectives. And esp as his mother was a terrible person with a dark heart. He was such a beautiful looking child that he was molested at an early age, by men and women. The kinds of people his mother hung around with. And I think she knew.
@@alanab9674
I have taken the trouble to read a bio on Peter Lawford. That is (sadly) how he died…. After a long drug addiction when his career, friends and money dried up…. It’s precisely WHY I commented
I know all about his early life, and how Sinatra used him for access to the Kennedy’s then ghosted him, and how he and Bobbie Kennedy were with Marilyn Monroe in her house the night she died…..
But thanks for your 2 cents worth
Any other recommendations ?
I used to spend my Sunday afternoon watching them in my teens. They made me laugh just looking at them mimicking. What a ball!
I love the rat pack especially Frank Sinatra!
We're glad you love the Rat Pack! What other types of videos would you like to see?
I Love these Guys always Have,and hell im younger than most of there Kids but it didn’t matter l had respect for them and just enjoyed there acting♥️🌟♥️
northern Nevada had Harrahs at lake Tahoe and Reno... we had all the great stars... i was very lucky to be a dice/21 dealer and get to see some of these peoples... THANK YOU !!!...rockettebob in reno
No one will ever drop them they were all very great in their own right
Looks like smoking got most of them.
Entertainment is dead. Which is why I live on TH-cam. 😁
Wow, I never knew that about Kennedy banning Sammy Davis Jr. from his inauguration.
Dean Martin "in his day he was the King of Cool"?...correction, he will eternally always be "The King of Cool"😎
There will NEVER be anything that comes close to the original Rat Pack!!!!! They were a really talented group of guys!!!❤
Well said, we strongly concur! Thank you for watching our content and for sharing your thoughts. What other types of video would you like to see?
THE RAT PAC LIKE THE BEATLES THEY WERE PERFECT TOGETHER… ONE OF A KIND A ONCE IN A LIFETIME PAC GOD BLESS THEM ALL 🤗🤗🤗🥰🥰🥳🥳🥳
I was stationed at March AFB Riverside California (SAC) when Dean Paul Martin was killed in a plane crash. There was some mystery why he turned in the wrong direction which caused him to crash into a mountain and take his backseater with him. There were a lot of rumors he was depressed and may have killed himself but never substantiated. I have seen him there as a Captain in the Air Guard but never met him.
I too was stationed at MAFB at that time. I was attached to 22SPS and was part of the Ambassador Gate Guard. I had the pleasure to meet Capt. Martin on many occasions. He was personable, respectful and a genuinely good man.
When he was taken from us, I was heartbroken, even more so when Mr. Martin came on base to attend a memorial hosted by the ANG. As far as the rumours to Capt. Martin being depressed and suicidal, I call B.S.!
Great information about Dean Martin, thank you for sharing!
Dean Martin was never the same after his son crashed
The original rat pack could never be replaced today. They will always remain the cream of the crop!
What I really admire about Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin. They would not tolerate racism. They always came to Sammy Davis Jr.'s defense and stood up against racism. That's why Frank got death threats. People always said Sinatra had connections to the mob.
Mob ties? He knew those guys and was friendly with them. They owned most of the nightclubs he performed in so of course he knew them.
I read somewhere that Sinatra refused to play venues in Vegas if Sammy was not allowed to enter through the front door with him
Sammy Davis jr , one of the fastest quick-
Draw actors and in the Country. His colt 45 s were beautiful. To match his dancing skills.
Great information, thank you for sharing this!
That's With HIS Days With His DAD And The Will Mastin Trio.
I think Sinatra threw Lawford down a flight of steps.
The way I see it there will never be a new rat pack. They were the original rat pack and unfortunately there will never be another one.
It's sad the these greats acted that way with alchohol and cigarettes, Lenord Nemoy said he smoked to be cool and it got him jobs in the industry...and admitted how stupit that was...miss all this talent..🙏😰
Leonard nimoy.
@@harperstacey9604 I'm glad I got to meet Leonard Nimoy. He was so cool and nice and charged nothing for his autographs (but neither did DeForest Kelley and James Doohan and Walter Koenig). Vulcan players Kirstie Alley and Jolene have been smokers too, but I hope both have quit by now. You'd think those who played Vulcans would know better and would have learned from Leonard's mistake.
@@virginiaconnor8350 William shatner charges $75.00 for an autograph. He's not very nice to his fans. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
I remember Stephen K Amos performing as Sammy Davis Junior and he absolutely nailed it. I loved Sammy and Dean in the Cannonball run films too
I am quite familiar with Sinatra's Rat Pack. However, they were more of my mother's generation, as she was born in 1921, and the Rat Pack members were born between 1915 - 1925. But I still remember them and their movies. I took a date to see "Robin and the Seven Hoods" and we enjoyed it. I never saw Ocean's 11 with the Rat Pack, and I haven't see the newer versions with Clooney, Pitt, and others, so I cannot compare them. I think fans of entertainers do enjoy the friendly interaction between a duo of singers or comedians, like Martin & Lewis, Rowan & Martin, Laurel & Hardy, etc., and trios (Three Stooges), quartet groups (can't think of one), and those like the Rat Pack because one can sence the chemistry and electricity in the group, and we love seeing that. Don't know of any similar Rat Packs today, but maybe there is one. - Dr Dave, Tucson, Arizona.
No one in this day and age can match the talent and come close to the ( Rat Pack )..., even in Las Vegas, Nevada. All were unique in their own way, and many say, "The Rat Pack as a group or individual made Las Vegas." They all had happy and sad days in their lives... However..., people come from around the ( world ) to see and hear "The Rat Pack" performances in local Las Vegas Strip Casinos'.., usually very late at night. It was a ( freewheeling show ), and anything could happen and did ! ! Finally..., because of the large draw of fans.., there were two large Las Vegas Casinos that competed for the late-night performances and comped "The Rat Pack" everything and I mean everything... The ( legendary famous group ) will be known for their performances, movies, television shows, songs, and dance, making Las Vegas the "entertainment capital of the world." They are still remembered today and into the future and missed by all... The "Rat Pack" was a very talented group, especially in Las Vegas... * Rest-in-peace and still singing and dancing and telling jokes in heaven on stage as "The Rat Pack"... :)
People didn't go to Vegas to see the "rat pack". They went to Vegas then, for the same reason they go NOW. Gambling and illicit sex.
@@efandmk3382 Once again..., you prove..., you know nothing ! ! * Must be a "Jehovah's Witness"... LOL :)
@@seanobrien2306 I didn't mean to imply that gambling and illicit sex were bad things. That's why I go.

The talent of today could not touch old blue eyes Sammy Davis dean Martin Joey bishop and nothing like todays talent
These fellas will never be replaced
In Las Vegas there are photos of them everywhere. My cousin took a photo of myself next to one.
Sinatra was known for his generosity to servers at restaurants, typically giving them a C note.
Good information, thanks for sharing!
No….There is no one who could replicate Rat Pack…
Those were some times… VERY SPECIAL TIMES…Sammy Davis Jr… really did pave the way for black entertainer’s..…imagine what it was like for him…I was born in 42 so I saw a little but I was a ranch girl… NO TV….NO ELECTRICITY … A 3 HOLE TOILET 100 yards from nowhere….Lambing Season….Haying Summers …beautiful ranch… beautiful (hard work ) life…I always laugh and wonder….REALLY???
I had a wonderful life and upbringing… the 50’s… 60’s…70’s… were so great… THE music was beyond great.. .. THEN ..When ELVIS hit the stage.. OH MY GOSH….uhhhlala baby….
I always sing “THOSE WERE THE DAYS MY FRIEND ..I THOUGHT THEY WOULD NEVER END… off key of course…
HEY….JUST WANT TO SAY. “THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES ♥️ I WISH YOU ALL LOVE AND GOOD HEALTH… and lotza$$$$
HAPPY TRAILS🍄
When Sinatra was performing with Sammy he insisted Sammy got the same rooms, the front entrance and first class treatment or Sinatra wouldn't perform or stay at that hotel.
Nice fun fact, thanks for sharing!
Frank Sinatra treated Sammy Davis jr. Like a decent human being. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
@@harperstacey9604 Yes, Frank was one of the good guys.
@@tootz1950 did you ever get a chance to see Frank Sinatra in concert? From Ms. Harper Stacey.
@@harperstacey9604 Once in Denver, 1974 I think, could be '75. And then in Phoenix in the 80s with Sammy and Liza. How about you?
You seemed to have overlooked Don Rickles as an honorary member of the Rat Pack.
Still love to watch the original Oceans 11 on Foxtel.🥰
The good old days..NOT now.
No way is there anyone or group of guys that could compete or compare with this group of men, ie, entertainers!!!! I know I loved them too much to ever see that happening. Maybe some younger people can think of their ideas of who that might be, for them. I grew up watching all these guys on TV ,in the movies and listening to their music!! Sad they are all gone. But, as Frank said, "That's life !" So true.
Today none of them have the style, talent and loyal affiliations to form anything like those greats
NOBODY today could lick the crap off the bottom of these guys boots. They were the best.
Very well said!
The photo of Dean. He looks like Kramer from Seinfeld.
i was too young but fantastic moments about rat pack.
One of a kind !
Growing up in the 70s these guys reminded me of my father and his friends. In other words, as unhip as can be.
The Rat Pack defined 'hip'. Perhaps you should re-evaluate.
why?
No one could replace the Rat pack , ever
We concur! Which song did you like best?
Dean Martin was my Favorite
Richard Conte should have been included and Joey Bishop
Sammy Davis Jr. Died in 1990, a quick Google search could have prevented such an error.
Frank Sinatra was born with perfect pitch, a huge gift if you want to be a music professional. He took voice lessons and that made him (they say) a much better singer. So, he wasn't "self taught", he was a trained person.
You can definitely tell it’s both natural talent and professional training.
If you don’t have in the first place, all the training in the world won’t help.
Sammy Davis Jr. died on the same day as Muppet creator and Kermit the frog, Jim Henson
No one can replace them ..
They were brilliant
Always loved them still do❤️❤️❤️
real TALENT 👍💪
Well John Wayne While In Las Vegas Was Trying To Get Some Sleep While Frank Sinatra Was Having A Wild Party . Sinatra Didn’t Turn Down The Music So John Wayne Went To His Room And Told Sinatra To Turn Down The Music Then Sinatra’s Bodyguard Said No One Talks To Mr. Sinatra That Way So John Wayne Knocked Him Out And Sinatra Lowered The Music. It’s been said John Wayne Did Not Care For Frank Sinatra Much But One Thing Is For Certain The Duke Was A Badass On And Off The Movie Screen!!
Interesting, thank you for sharing this information! What other types of videos would you like to see?
Wow Frank, Dean, Sammy, Peter and Joey, what great performers, and such cool looking men. They were the best, hip, sharp and sexy. Rest In Peace. Can you imagine what's going on in Heaven with this guys. Thank you all, for being you.
May they all find peace
And Richard Conte
AMEN, Miss Them All!

Frank, Dean, and Sammy were in a different league than the other two..
Frank, Dean, and Sammy were the main attraction. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
