John The Baptist (Holy John) - Sammy Davis Jr.

Sharing this rare performance of a song Sammy performed but never properly recorded. This live performance came from The Diahann Carroll Show which aired March 9, 1976.

Such a great song written by Al Kooper. Wonderful to hear SDJ’s heart and soul-filled rendition. God Bless.
Magnificent!! I saw Sammy do this song many times. And one time I was in the audience and I and my friends kept yelling out "John The Baptist!!" over and over UNTIL Sammy from the stage said: "I Don't know who is doing that. We are not prepared for that song. But we are going to do it." And do it they did and it was ofcourse just stunningly Magnificent!!

The man !!!
I remember watching Sammy Davis Jr perform this on Johnny Carson. I first heard the composition recorded by Blood, Sweat, & Tears. If you listen to that recording, you can hear the original horn lines by BS&T are pretty much the same in this arrangement.
wonderfull
