Thanks for posting, the gentleman playing the bongos is my late uncle Johnny Mendoza who passed away on September 1990 of lung cancer. Words cannot express the feelings one gets when these clips are brought back to life. Thanks to You Tube and for JoeWellington for posting these priceless precious memories!

I don't seem to find a Wikipedia page for Johnny. Is there a source with more info on him?

Crazy speed with his hands. I'm a little surprised Sammy didn't throw in a few taps to compliment it at the end.

After this performance, I ran out and bought a set of bongos and a "learn to play" record.... this is what one would call, true entertainment. Wow!

This is such a treat for me. Been a fan of Sammy Davis Jr.for the longest time. Im binge-watching all his concerts. Thanks for sharing.

The true measure of this genre of talent becomes delightfully evident when the artist requires little, if any acompanyment! To my mind, very few performers can "cut it" alone, live, out on stage, with so little help! Sadly, we don't get to see or hear enough of this caliber of talent and ability today!

Lynn , I am binge watching Sammy Davis too. My favorite song he died "This guys in love " Wish I could have seen Mr. Davis and Mr Mendoza and all of the band. My absolute favorite of all. Love him and all he did for mankind

Pity Mr Sammy Davis Jr is quite unknown in France, but "West Side Story" is too. World changes, I wish great people such as these -including Mr Johny Mendoza- were not forgotten in France and Europe as well

By the way I made a mistake, liver cancer was his undoing, not lung cancer. His sister Marina died of lung cancer a year earlier, she was my Mom.

Sorry for your loss. So, Sammy Davis, Johnny Mendoza, and Sammy's drummer, Michael Silva, all passed on in 1990, within mere months of each other. Heaven must have a nice band with those gentlemen on board. R.I.P. to all.
