Sammy was sitting ringside at an Ali fight in the mid 1970's and being interviewed by Howard Cosell, when Cosell asked the question, " Sammy, you're a great friend of Ali, but how do you see this fight?" "With my one good eye," replied Davis
@Michael Armstrong what are you yapping about? That's like saying all liberals are disgusting? There are different types of conservatives, they're not all Trumpists, fiscal conservatives, Reaganians, militia members, Republican party members or cultural conservatives. Just like not all liberals aren't 2nd wave feminists, progressives, Democrats or pro-choice. What do you mean by that and what makes all conservatives disgusting?
Sammy Davis was a satanist so he's not cool! You can check out this interview with Eddie Murphy talking about Sammy Davis, Jr. telling Eddie that he's a satanist. On this link, if you scroll down, is also a picture of Sammy with satanist Michael Aquino and Anton LaVey, founder of the Church of Satan. fellowshipoftheminds.com/hollyweirdo-sammy-davis-jr-was-a-satanist
Men were cool! A dying breed now that I 'm in my very late forties . I see and hear dudes in their prime, wining about their feelings??? Uh? Feeling? Are you kidding me?
"I honor his friendship and what he did for me as a performer, and as a person too because he put my head straight in a lot of areas-he really did". Thanks Sammy for standing up for a true friend, and showing Mr. Sinatra as he really was long before virtue signaling came into full practice as it is now.
Sinatra played a huge part in getting sammy back together after the accident cost him his eye,....and Sinatra would be on him to quit the cocaine......which is what Sammy is talking abot here....as far as Sinatra running...there were times he laid low until the smoked cleared...once when that guy was hit over the heah by jilly....and was near death....and when he and joe D...broke into the wrong room....trying to catch...Monroe.....doing something......are two incidents that come to mind
One of the fun things that I’ve ever seen was all in the family Sammy Davis Jr visits the home. As Sammy Davis Jr was about to walk out the door 🚪 he bent down and kissed Archie on his head. I don’t know 🤷♀️ it was written in the script but it was sooo funny. 😂😂😂😂👏👏👏
At his funeral told the presents when Sammie didn't know what to do ask people around just to do the opposite they tell him, then everybody wanted to pick the microphone again just to tell their anecdotes on him, everybody laughs that was the best way to honor the life of the coolest guy in Hollywood
1:38 Sammy breaks down media tactics perfectly, and in the great information age, it's sad to say it is even more relevant now, because now days, they don't even read the article. Just the headline.
Marlon Brando looks gorgeous when he was younger. I never knew that about George Harrison, seemed a good man. Still appreciate the older crooners, Dean Martin, Bing Crosby were a couple of my dad's favourites. Great... On this day! I laughed when you reminded me that I used to smuggle my radio as a kid in bed and we actually had the old candlewick bedspreads, I'd forgotten about all that. In my teens we used to have a CB radio & meet up (eyeballs 😁), kids today now have virtual social meetings instead 🙄 Looks like you're picking up a tan on your face Neil, it suits you x
Around ‘62, Sinatra invested heavily in Berkshire Downs, a Massachusetts race track. Attorney General RFK and his “House Select Committee on Crime” subpoenaed ‘ol Blue Eyes as a potential witness regarding “the relations between Organized Crime and ......... sports”.
Frank was always running somewhere..typically after a "broad". Mr Sinatra had a "financial interest" in the Cal-Neva Lodge. I read (in his bio) that some of his 'goombas' were on the movie set of "Some Came Running". See Frank run...Run Frank run...:)
cal neva was mob owned even though sam giancana was forbidden to ever go there.....which he always did.usua lly with his girlfrirnd...the same one who was sleeping with president kennedy.....maybe Sinatra....was given some part of the place...who knows....as far as chasing women...ava gardner was the only woman. ...he ever chased after...because once he cut someone out of his life......he usually never spoke to them again
Good on you. Anyone who wants to know who Frank REALLY was, read Kitty Kelly's book on his LIFE. Awful man. And he is still the greatest singer I've ever heard!
My only thing is I imagine it could frustrate a celebrity when they get on q show & the host asks them about their famous friends. I imagine celebrities would much rather have questions asked about themselves.
Check out the podcast “You Must Remember This.” This season is called Sammy and Dino. Very interesting. In this clip Sammy is referring to Frank Sinatra hiding out after he almost killed a man by throwing a phone at him and breaking his skull.
Jacques Cousteau walked by me just a few feet away, decades ago, and I was starstruck. I remember his appearance clearly, in black including the cap. Not looking at me of course. That day the Calypso was moored in the harbor for some event and I just learned that Arthur Guinness, the founder of Guinness brewery, sharing Cousteau's passion for the ocean, lent the explorer his 40-year-old former car ferry for 1 franc a yr and it was named the Calypso
I have nothing against the other celebs that were on this show but is this channel ever going to show the Dick Cavett shows where he interviews Jackie Gleason or Art Carney? How about any Honeymooners actors that were part of the main cast? These are rare much like all of the other Dick Cavett interviews
If you owe money and the federal government gets involved it is important to note a no show court appearance is not running away. It means bail and penalties will ensue and the debt will still be negotiated. With credit debts interest can be reduced if the individual is unemployed or disabled. He has an option. He can return and pay or even file. But he is not running away. If he was planning that from the beginning then yes it is worth tracking him down but if he stuck it out as long as he could and stopped then he is asking for help and not lying to an official. Who uses that to judge character? You don't even know where the money was spent?
I heard a man say that to be perfectly Frank he would have to change his name. I thought that was funny. Also the comment that the cowboy 🤠 jumped onto his horse 🐎 and rode off in all directions. I think 🤔 that’s hilariously funny but nearly no one else seems to think that it is. Maybe I’m just dumb for thinking it’s it’s funny. However, I can just picture of a cow 🐄 boy riding off in one direction and his clothes riding off in all different directions. 🥼🦺👚👕👗👢🩲👖🩳👘🥻🥻👞🩴🧣🪢👠🧦🥿👟
If Sinatra is Sammy’s friend where was he during the Kennedy inaugural when Sammy was told not to come with his wife at the time? How come Sinatra didn’t stand for his friend then??? I love Sinatra’s music but that’s still some cold stuff he did to his “friend”.
Big Ragu Sinatra still should’ve fought for Sammy. In the end it was karma cuz the Kennedys dismissed Frank when he bragged that Kennedy would stay at his home and it never happened. He stayed with Bing Crosby and he’s a Republican!
@@ghanasoul When I look back at past events, I always count the years from then to now. 1961 to 2020 is 59 years. Then I subtract 59 years from 1961, to give it some perspective. That would be 1902. Imagine, how much attitudes, and everything else changed, from 1902 to 1961, and hence from 1961 to 2020. Just saying. Carl
The world is much worse off without guys like Sammy and Frank in it.
?
Creepy and about you really.
The world's worse off since we are living in 2024 a space era
Really?

And killed him at only 62, so sad

Period.
Scott Brandts Sammy had more talent than all the rat pack put together in my opinion.
Sammy was more talented than Sinatra? Seriously? Sammy’s a legend but I think even he would laugh at the idea.
Sammy was a stand up guy. Did a lot of charity work. Super talented and seemed like a solid friend from this segment.
Read up on what happened at some of his parties. Just saying.
This clip is criminally short.
I believe that you can see complete Dick Cavett interviews on Amazon Prime in 2020, likely including Sammy. Crime solved!
well now that it was.... Iguess it is now could history clip .....
So was Sammy😂 no kidding loved him
Damn Sammy Davis Jr was a true friend and one cool gentlemen...Boy how men have changed.
They were allowed to be men (pre-feminist era)
@@bk_c7704 yeah, now men have to uhhh, exist equally with women and not be afraid to express themselves how they want? How is this bad?
Mr. Davis. A Man of Class and Style and admired! You're the greatest Mr. Davis!

I love you friend!

I have never loved another man except for my son. I love Sammy Davis Jr.
So much class emanating from these fine gentlemen.
@Thomas Stewart Howdy!
Little known fact: Comedian Freddy Lewis modeled his interview style on Dick Cavett. xoxo The Clarences
Amazing footage.
One of my favorite afternoon talk show David's cool laid back style with his guests.
The most sober Sammy ever was on this show also happens the time he's defending Sinatra fleeing from a court subpoena. Simpler time
Those two guys loved and respected each other!! Great talents that we may never see again
I still remember the story about Sammy and Kim Novak falling in love and people threatening his life because of the color differences. Crazy!

I sure was blessed in a time where actors are comedians were among the best
Has there ever been a more cool, hip cat than Sammy Davis? He wasn't about to rat Frank out, or anyone else.

What's this about Sinatra "running"? Can someome explain this to me, please?
Confused.
I believe this was In reference to Frank testifying what he knew about certain mobsters.
They're talking about Frank Sinatra in Cannonball Run II.
Around ‘62, Sinatra invested heavily in Berkshire Downs, a Massachusetts race track. Attorney General RFK and his “House Select Committee on Crime” subpoenaed ‘ol Blue Eyes as a potential witness regarding “the relations between Organized Crime and ......... sports”.
Way to go Sammy
This is two days before the Watergate break in. No particular significance except that Cavett took a prominent interest in that story.
This mans autobiography,will make you tired.did this brother party or what
Care to tell a juicy detail? :D

Always excuses for celebs racist comments toward their African friends.
