ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME?!?! THIS IS EFFING P-H-E-N-O-M-E-N-A-L!!!! I LOVE THIS SONG, AND WHAT AN AMAZING PROGRESSION THROUGH TIME AND STYLE!!!!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR PUTTING THIS VIDEO UP!!!!!!!!!!!

An incredible performance. To think we used to see things like this on television before the culture changed. I hope you will be allowed to keep this video up on KZread. A real lesson in history, artistry and Americana.

Sammy Davis Jr was in BLACKFACE on TV in 1977?! Only Ali Alexander and his friends could appreciate the first minute of this.

Great video...love ragtime and minstrel...this is entertainment.

❤

Best vocalist of them all!

That's where this comes from? Thank you, I didn't even realize I had a part of this.

Have you found out what TV special this came from? I would really like to find it on DVD or some kind of media.

im glad you do....great clilp!!!

First time I've seen this very good

I don't know. I only have this part of it.

What is this from?

I miss this kind of classy production. The Variety shows of the 70s were the best!

what special was this ?

They 'blacked up' Sammy Davis Jr ??? That's just a bit too strange. A bit like sticking a large nose on Barbra Streisand
