Getting to play Dean Martin alongside Don Cheadle as Sammy Davis and Ray Liotta as Sinatra was one of the greatest joys of my career.

Sammy Davis Jr. interviewing Evel Knievel is high octane 70s … not everybody can handle this much goddamn 70s. Know your limit.

I'm currently reading "Yes I Can" AutoBiography of Sammy Davis Jr.I read it about 30+ yrs ago, but I'm reading it with an older set of eyes now, and it's such a good read. It's also a very sad read at times too.

I’ve gotta be honest with you, it’s not really The Masters for me unless Pat Summerall and Sammy Davis Jr. are in the 18th tower.

15-years-old summer of 1971. Teenage Opportunity Program working four hours a day at the Reno Evening Gazette. A dozen bylines, including a couple on the front page. Got to meet Sammy Davis, Jr. That did it.

Happy birthday to Sammy Davis Jr. This is one of my favorites records. A live album recorded in Vegas so late at night it’s almost morning. I bought it years ago. Listening to it helped me through a break up. Amazing to find hope in a Vegas showroom through the mists of time.
