The greatest singer impressionist ever. No one can sing so many different singers. What a talent and performer.

WOW, .. the memories, feelings, years all flying by Thank you Nancy Sinatra

Ths is stellar! Bob Anderson is miles above any other impressionist! What amazing vocal versatility!.

If you were a TV junkie in the 70's and you watched all of the talk shows on a regular basis, you knew who Bob Anderson was. When my Mom and I knew he was going to be on The Tonight Show or the Merv Griffin Show, etc., we considered it a treat and something to get excited about. Bob's Tom Jones impression is the Gold Standard. Even today, Bob is probably the "best kept secret" among singing impressionists--but those who have seen him on TV or live, know what a talent he is.

Bob, you deserve every single applause, every standing ovation, and every opportunity that has come your way. Your talent is more than just good, more than just great; it's phenomenal. As a huge fan of the people you re-create on the stage, I am mesmerized and amazed. You are wonderful. Thank you for sharing your incredible talent with the world. We are fortunate.

The transition from Dean to Jerry, though...😂 spot on!

" AWESOME" is the only way to describe this gentleman's impressions and he hit all of them spot on. Especially enjoyed his impression of Tom Jones, he had everything down perfectly! Kudos to this entertainer.

Wow the rest of the Famous was Right on the show as he Made you Feel the Famous Singing actors of all time in 1 show at such a short period of time.

Saw him many times in Vegas back in the day. Simply the best!!

Today is the first time I’ve ever heard of BOB ANDERSON. He captures the nuances of all those past Las Vegas super star singers. Bob brings back to life of all those singers who have passed. He’s a talented performer beyond compare!!

What is Bob Anderson doing today?

You are FANTASTIC Bob! Keep watching your videos over & over! 🤩

Truly amazing Bob. I’m 62 and here i am just discovering you. Thank you for sharing your talent….. oh, and a huge shout out to the amazing band that supported you. What a collection of talent.

Now, _that's_ what I call music! Thank you, Mr. Anderson, for keeping the Crooners alive for the modern world. Doing audience suggestions is obviously always going to be a bit risky for any performer (which I'd like to believe accounts for that very misguided Elvis bit), but when it's also with a full-on band that has to keep up on the fly?! - This is just seriously impressive!

Well there you have it, I'm sort of ashamed to say I'd never heard of Bob Anderson before! But I gotta say, he's fantastic!!! He has buckets of talent!! The only one I didn't think he nailed was Elvis, but every one else he smashed!! Well done sir, I am now a fan! 👍

Mel Torme - Wow! Johnny Mathis - Wow again! all of them......the mannerisms are phenomenal as well! Love you!

Love you Bob! You brings so much talent and happiness to so many, including me! Thank you!

Bob Anderson is a hoot!! I can remember seeing him on the Jerry Lewis Labor Day telethon and he's imitating Tony Bennett, and he keeps hugging himself .it was really funny. Rock on, Bob Anderson!!!

Bob is the man, no doubt about it, but the band are awesome too..tremendously talented ppl..

The only thing that I notice on Elvis impressions, Bob Anderson didn’t really get what we really wanted to hear as Elvis, but it’s okay nobody is perfect. But to all the artists he impression ate are all good. By far he is the best impressionist in this business.

awesome performance

Impersonations aside, this guy is a damn good singer!

Wow, your one lucky gifted guy to meet and sing like the greats.

Well! I just came across this video. I don't remember ever hearing of him, but, my memory is fading @ 75 years old. Lol

Bob, I apologize all those t.v. appearances were somehow missed by me. You are a phenomenal singer alone let alone great impressionist.

I just discovered Bob Anderson today, and my jaw dropped! I am 71 years old and had never heard of him! His talent is phenomenal! When I closed my eyes, I couldn't tell that it was Bob singing;it was indistinguishable from the singer he was impersonating! Thank you, KZread, for continuing my musical education, especially the Tom Jones impersonation, which was spot on and amazing! Edit: sentence structure

Bob Anderson is a living encyclopedia of American Songsters and truly born with an astonishing gift. To be an impressionist of song goes far deeper than just being a singer. One must be a three dimensional singer as versus a mere singer to do what Bob does. In this measure, it is three times as hard if not four to do what Bob is doing. I also thank him for his service to our country as he served in Nam. I am a little younger than Bob and served as a Marine in that era. I salute Bob for his pursuit of excellence and showing us you can have a good time doing it ! Semper Fi ! A friend always !

What a talent! How have I missed this guy before now?

One of the attributes Bob possesses is a his professional singing voice worthy of Vegas apart from his other elite skills ….the man is a hard worker plus his talents. Bob is a rare talent.

One of the best show business stories ever. I don’t know how I never heard of this guy before. What a thing to mimic such legends and have them all love it, although it looked in that clip like Tony Orlando wanted to tie a yellow ribbon around the singer’s neck the way he started to charge the stage. Man, that takes guts to get up on stage in front of all those stars. Too much parody would be offensive and you could easily take things too far and piss them off. He knows the boundaries. His genius is knowing just how to play them all.

Thank you so much for your kind answer. Funny, it's the opposite for me: I have performed in France - even at the Lido, I'm sure you've heard of 😁 - but not in other European countries, not in US, and of course not in Vegas ha ha 😅 By the way, here is a possible explanation: the French culture (I mean 'knowledge') is not that open to this kind of singers and songbook. I'm a singer & impersonator too, and the Frank Sinatra's closest sound-alike in France. Can you imagine that I've been asked (by some people around 40-50 y.o.) who he was?!! More than once. Unbelievable! It's a pity we can't welcome a huge artist like you here... But I'll keep on enjoying your performances on videos and on your website I promise. You are just amazing! Merry Christmas to you Bob.

Thanks for the performance, I hope you'll be in my neck of the wood so I could attend one of your show.

Why I never heard or discovered this talent I don't know why, I even met Rich Little in person once and regard him as the best of the best, but this guy is right next to him imitating the best singers of this generation or probably the last century.

Thank you! You are great, the best!

I commented on another Bob Anderson video on KZread, and I don't mean to belabor the point, but the talent on display here is unmatched today. The singing impressions featured in this particular clip not only amaze me from the perspective of accuracy, down to minute details found in a singer's personal style, but the singing itself is incredible. I'll put it this way. They say a painter is able to use his or her brush to create a beautiful painting because he or she sees light in a way that the vast majority of us don't and can't. An impressionist like Bob Anderson must have a fantastic voice, of course, but he wouldn't be able to do what he does without also having a highly sensitive and sophisticated ear. He hears the nuances, and recreates them, in a way very few people can match. Last, watching this clip takes me back, like a time machine, to the days when real singers entertained us wherever we went, whatever we were doing, and whatever we watched. That doesn't happen today, and I'm just happy Bob Anderson took the time to upload this video. I got old, but his ability to capture the magic of countless legends did not.

Jeff...I want to thank you so much for your finding of the extreme care and accuracy that I try to deliver when taking on the finest singers that I have ever heard. Becoming that person is an extremely difficult thing to do, especially if you are seriously trying to do just that, and not just making funny close calls to get the listener to figure out who it is. But I'm just seriously thanking you for the words you stated in your writing. I am very fortunate to have been given the voice that I have. And because of all of this, I became really good friends with all the artists I am doing still today. Sinatra, Bennett, Andy Williams, Johnny Mathis, Sammy Davis Jr, Dean Martin, Mel Torm'e, Jack Jones, Joe Williams, Buddy Greco, Tom Jones and a few more. I would like to send something for you to look at in our computes. I think you would really enjoy it. If you would type (Bobanderson.com) you will see a brochure of a lot of my work. Then go the the end on the writing across the top that says SIGH UP and that is how I can get your email address and I will send another brochure that I want to send you that tells it all. But, I can't give my email address on this page without getting lots of emails in return. If this is something you would like to see, I will be happy to send it along. OK...Merry Christmas and thanks again for your kind words.

Rusty Meyers I met Bob Anderson in 1995 when I was performing in a production of Guys & Dolls with Jack Jones, Maureen McGovern and another brilliant impersonator in the late great Frank Gorshin. Bob was playing in the lounge of the Desert Inn and Frank introduced me to him, and have been friends ever since. I've seen him perform probably one hundred times, he never disappoints.
