Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra. The year is now 2022. No entertainers act can out class the entertainers of the pass. Thanks to the recoding and movies and shows of live acts and pre - redcordings, generations after can experience the great acts of the past.
Ronald Reagan was everyone's uncle back then. He had that kind of appeal. Sinatra and Martin were the perfect choice for Reagan's big ball. Wish I could've been a fly on that stage.
Two of the all time greats. How you are missed. I was blessed to sing professionally for many years and at age 14 I sang on Sinatra s High Hopes. Years later I worked as part of an 8 voice backup vocal group on the Dean Martin Show for six years. Nicest man that ever lived. How blessed was I!!
FROM TORONTO...YES THESE WERE THE BEST TIMES IN AMERICA 🇺🇸AND CANADA BUT I THINK THE 70S WERE OK I WAS BORN 1969 BUY YES THE 80S JUST SEEMED MAGICAL JUST THE SIMPLICITY OF THE TIME WAS GREAT.....I REALY THINK DURING THE 90S LIFE WENT DOWNHILL FAST ....EVERYTHING CHANGED SO FAST ....BUT YES IT WAS A GREAT TIME I MISS IT ......

42 years ago, and what a great time to be alive. Men were men, people lived and worked hard, fought for and earned what they wanted. Now everything has fallen to shit.
I agree, 1985 was when men were men, and cows were scared shitless! I remember back than very well. I was 22 and in my prime. I could go all night long. Now, I’m envious of a stiff wind!
Yeah you are right, it's must be really by choice.....by the way nice meeting you on here, I hope you are having a wonderful time out there ???????????
Such class, grace and natural charisma by both Frank and Dean. Made it look so effortless. I love how Frank referred to Dean as his “buddy” a few times. Imagine Frank Sinatra referring to you as his “buddy” … a term not used just in passing either. To be his “buddy” was to have such a loyal friend like that … for life.
Class like how Sinatra and Martin constantly cheated on their wives and made racist jokes against Sammy Davis Jr. Sinatra married Mia Farrow when she was 21 and he was 50 and he abused her. I would much rather take our celebrities now than the womanizing fakes who wore tuxedos to mask the filth of their personal lives. Also Reagan was a corrupt, senile criminal who should have gone to prison for arming Iran with weapons used against the Israelis and lying to congress and the American people about it.
Oh how I bleed. How I miss these days. These guys have natural class, style, elegance. No one, excuse me, that's NO ONE today can come close. They were, and will remain, the very best.
Even though I grew up in the 80's I still remember these two wonderful guys. Dean was the smooth operator, and Frank was sharp and witty. Truly great entertainers that sadly will never be replaced. Rest in Peace and hope to hear your voices again in Heaven.
I can hear Frankie singing in a style, and the way that evoked the absolute best of our country it went sort of like this. “The house I live in- that’s AMERICA TO ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I could listen to that song all day long. Keep praying for our America.
thanks for letting me speak in your place, in avance, to myself: I wonder if the big waves of immigrants came in after the time of the American civil war (interestingly, when the Bismark Germany fought the Austrians, but that was not a civil war, just the opposite). The second thing is that my German language doesn't seem to have a public "Our country". As it now occurs, my ex-chancelliere Merkel, Angela, would say: "my country" (in that case that is not my country - could you say, in America: that is not our country - just trying to joke, considering the Ukrainian crises). Anyway, even more so, idiomatic "Let's" and "Let's not" (hurst wall street, for instance) refers to "out country" and just does not in my culture. In my culture, it's always, only, forever: "Let's stay together", it's the two of us and may be some family. But it's never "our country", with me.
Boss Shrek love to see someone else here that’s young and appreciates this music, I was born in 2004 and I love them all, Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra, and Ronald Reagan :)
Love this I was brought up with Frank sinatra and the rat pack and big band music my parents and grandparents. My grandad use to provide rare material on reel to reel for the BBC.
Dino had it all and they actually both did just different. Dino made me feel good and Frank took me to another place that I’ve always wanted to go. I can’t explain it but I go there.
CHRISTIAN ANDERS LEARNING CHANNEL Well Dean was my dads favorite but Frank was a really good actor and won the Oscar. They’re just both totally different to me.
@@ronniebishop2496 Agree. They were different and again some ways alike! One was not better ( that was such an ignorant comment that person made!). They were both great, either together AND individually!
President Reagan was the classiest President, he was genuinely nice to people, yet he was true to his convictions. Back in those days people debated policies vigorously, not trying to assassinate the opponent's character.
Yes indeed he WAS everything you claim. I am so proud that I actually got to vote for him! The second time only though as I was too young to have voted for his first term. Personally, I consider Reagan to be our last great president. We haven't had a truly good one since.
I’m 21 years old been of fan of both of these guys since I was in middle school and it’s cool that I still find cool videos like these 👍🏼 never really was of fan of todays music maybe a little but mostly old school like these guys.
@@770WT - LOL wtf are you drinking? We're on the verge now of becoming a far left socialist Country the old days were great times, we had problems but nothing like the bs of today!!!!
@@georgemakuca8870 He was never ever drunk it was all part of his act. It's a long story. Ifyou don't mind doing some research, you'll find out the reason why.
Never mind R.R. and his party, but: a damn professional class act, especially on Dean Martin's part. What a great entertainer he was, and what a smooth voice even then at his age (nearly 70). Thanks for sharing this magnificent clip from an era where show biz was truly professional and classy, no vulgar stuff and no inane peculiarities...
I’d take Reagan and the Republican Party for the rest of my life, rather than the current, babbling, senile old geezer and his party. Biden can’t even read a teleprompter without screw-in up.
It's nice to see Dean acting normal for a change instead of that image that he always had with a cigarette and a drink in his hand and acting somewhat inebriated. I've always noticed whenever there was anything to do with Reagan, he would always act somewhat normal. He was an excellent entertainer he truly was. May he rest in peace.
He was never better - or more real and funny - than when he was with Jerry. And the same with Jerry. They had a magic together they both lacked as singles, as incredibly successful as both men were. The drunk act that Dean did wasn't real - and it was forced. He never had the same chemistry with Frank as he did with Jerry. Those Colgate Comedy Hours are the real thing.
@@matthewgallagher1761 Thank you for that truth. This banter with Sinatra is forced and they don't connect. They were both successful individually, absolutely. But the quality, the integrity of the comedy, the connection, the locked-in connection they had together was absolute magic. I think they both took it for granted..... and it broke both of their hearts, although Dean was more reserved about it. How do you have a connection like that and walk away... so much ego, outside forces that pulled them apart. But, I am grateful they had those 10 years! How I wish they could have gone their own way, and, then just performed together for even 2x per month. Just to have it all aborted is so painful. We must cherish those connections! The banter with Frank did not work at all. I am sure Dean feels it.
@@matthewgallagher1761I don't think that the drunk act was forced. What happened was, when Dean broke off from the Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis's partnership, obviously Dean was on his own. While performing, Harry Mills from The Mills Brothers suggested to Dean, hey, you look a little stiff you need to relax try putting a cigarette in your hand and have a shot of whatever? to calm you down; and have a glass of 🍷 in the other hand or some hard liquor in the other and that will relax you. He tried it and it worked. So if it's not broke don't fix it. At the time he needed something new to reinvent himself and he used it throughout his life it was just part of his image. Though it was always be Martinelli's apple juice in his glass cuz it almost sounded like his name or tea because he really didn't drink. On stage he would smoke just like anyone else would in back in the day, but while on TV, he never did drink. The FCC would not have allowed it. He was known to have a glass of wine only while having dinner. But other than that, he really wasn't a drinker.
@@donaldperez7981 I meant that he was far more genuine, and more himself, when he and Jerry were teamed. And for Jerry it was the same. He overdid the hysterics, just as Dean overdid pretending to be drunk. Together, they brought out each other's fuller talents: Dean never sang better than when he and Jerry were teamed. Jerry was able to play it straight sometimes and let Dean do the comedy. I don't doubt Harry Mills gave him good career advice - and there was another older comedian named Joe E. Lewis, who was famous for doing a drunk act that Dean also copied, my point is that it was nowhere near the same - or as good or magical or REAL - as when Dean and Jerry were a team. They were as big as the Beatles or Elvis during their heyday. That came because their "act" wasn't really an act: it was two incredible performers who had perfect chemistry and timing. I wish they'd been able to perform together, on occasion, through the years, as their performances in specials would have been true events.
@@pamelahawley4844 Well said, Pamela, and couldn't agree more. Those Colgate Comedy Hours show the great range they had: they could be clowns, they could do a song and dance, they could do banter, they could talk like two real people, and bring out each other's talents much more. The Dean/Sinatra shows, while very good, did not have anywhere that same magic. Sinatra had no sense of humor, for one. Don't get me wrong. I enjoyed the Dean Martin show - I wasn't even born when Dean and Jerry were a team - and always enjoyed the part of the show when he just sat on the couch and sang. But he didn't use his voice as fully as he did in his years with Jerry. And he played a character. He wasn't himself. I agree - I wish they could have found a way to work together once in awhile through the years. Those shows would have gotten huge ratings.
@diana balak: There’s nothing like it anymore! At the time ( of course, I was younger) and we didn’t appreciate it as much until we see now how far we have fallen! From talent to trash!!
@@daniellebourgade8701 yeah so much, just can't stop thinking about the youthful days....by the way nice meeting you on here, I hope you are having a wonderful time out there ???????
But their spirit always lives on and the class, grace, charm, and humor they embodied we can carry in our hearts and it can rise again in the country if we work at it!!👍😊 Check out the app Share the Meal where people can help feed kids that need it and pass it on! All the best!
I am 63 years old! My generation is sort of the one that came after theirs. I miss these guys, especially Dean because to me they represent a time when the world wasn't perfect but it was trying its best to be the best that it could be. Today with all this Covid-19 crap...; it just doesn't compare. :(
The best thing about the days when we grew up we all could laugh about things without being so sensitive or angry, remember All in the family, best show ever made, we could all laugh about race !
God bless you our government is failing us especially since Obama was president and these many years after give me Trump give me Reagan any day anytime
Dean here was in the best shape of his later years. He’d kicked his dependence on pain meds, made up with Jeanne, was appearing regularly on TV and had successful SRO appearances in London and Paris. His energy and drive are obvious in this clip. Sadly, it wasn’t to last. In scrolling through these comments I’m perplexed by those that think Dean was at his best with Jerry Lewis. He was constantly marginalized these years, even admitted by Lewis. Only after the breakup did people understand how important Dean was to the act. Anyone who actually saw Dean’s variety shows on NBC would know how gifted he was and better off without Lewis stepping on his talent. He played straight man, comic lead, sang, danced and made every guest on the show look better.
@@sanctuaryism after his son died piloting a National Guard plane in 1987 it was all a slow decline downhill for Dean. Jeanne, Mort Viner and friends kept him going for a few more years but his heart wasn’t in it.
For the good old time sake. Times after time, and I'm still enjoyed this video. RIP All the greats. They'll always be remembered. Thank you for the post. Your effort is appreciated.
Show me a You Tuber, Tik-Toker or "Influencer" that can even hold a candle to these gentlemen, and I will sign over the deed to my house... It's what the youth of today are lacking, the depth of talent and experience that entertainers like this bring to the table, for decades, not just a quick "Viral" video.
The Greatest Show Master on Stage. Its pity that i donth see Sinatra 1985. In Vienna when he was. Hes Voice brouth milon People to Las Vegas. Reagans Colleague in Hollywood
Wow- smooth ❣️The last time class was well dressed, well behaved , loved American and Americans ! What happened to civility and honor - no matter where you’re from north ,south,east or west on the globe-don’t you want to see this again in the world 🙏 please respect yourself and everyone else ‼️
Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra. The year is now 2022. No entertainers act can out class the entertainers of the pass. Thanks to the recoding and movies and shows of live acts and pre - redcordings, generations after can experience the great acts of the past.
Totally agree😁
These were great entertainers because audiences expected it.
Because they were real class act in real life not only on stage
The great good old days fantastic thank you Dean Frank and the rest
We still have Sammy the bull!
Actually I'm half serious

How Dean just effortlessly goes from being comedic to singing and performing beautifully without effort is amazing and a gift...God Bless you Deano..
He was one of the all time great singers so yes it was easy for him.

Those Colgate Comedy Hours show the great range they had: they could be clowns, they could do a song and dance, they could do banter, they could talk like two real people, and bring out each other's talents much more. The Dean/Sinatra shows, while very good, did not have anywhere that same magic. Sinatra had no sense of humor, for one.
Don't get me wrong. I enjoyed the Dean Martin show - I wasn't even born when Dean and Jerry were a team - and always enjoyed the part of the show when he just sat on the couch and sang. But he didn't use his voice as fully as he did in his years with Jerry. And he played a character. He wasn't himself. I agree - I wish they could have found a way to work together once in awhile through the years. Those shows would have gotten huge ratings.
I miss those days when men had real class. Dino and Frank. Thanks for the memories.
Class and elegance!
What an era! They were classic in every way! I miss those days and those times!
So much !!!!
@diana balak: There’s nothing like it anymore! At the time ( of course, I was younger) and we didn’t appreciate it as much until we see now how far we have fallen! From talent to trash!!
Much freedom rung back then!
@@daniellebourgade8701 yeah so much, just can't stop thinking about the youthful days....by the way nice meeting you on here, I hope you are having a wonderful time out there ???????
@@danielgalloway1937 Wtf you doing?
Such a great time in our history.
DEAN MARTIN,FRANK SINATRA,two unforgettable class acts.R.I.P to the both of them.
When an inauguration was what it was suppose be!!! And presidents knew how to be the man of the hour, miss you Ronnie!!!❤❤
Yea the good old days!!!!! Amazing how far we’ve fallen in one generation. But sing Deano!
I had enjoyed these two guys music during their life.Still I do.
We don’t miss the good ol days till their gone. And those days, Reagan, Martin and Sinatra are sadly gone.
But their spirit always lives on and the class, grace, charm, and humor they embodied we can carry in our hearts and it can rise again in the country if we work at it!!👍😊
Check out the app Share the Meal where people can help feed kids that need it and pass it on! All the best!
Bob hope and Johnny Cash too.
I wish it was the other way round, that Marilyn was there on stage and those 2 wise guys where long dead way back in '62!
don't forget sammy, and joey
How about beat pack?
I am 63 years old! My generation is sort of the one that came after theirs. I miss these guys, especially Dean because to me they represent a time when the world wasn't perfect but it was trying its best to be the best that it could be. Today with all this Covid-19 crap...; it just doesn't compare. :(
The best thing about the days when we grew up we all could laugh about things without being so sensitive or angry, remember All in the family, best show ever made, we could all laugh about race !
Me 2 , l am 63.5yrs & l ❤ Deano as a kid . Much prefer Nancy Sinatra 2 her old man . But he had a voice
God bless you our government is failing us especially since Obama was president and these many years after give me Trump give me Reagan any day anytime
@@robertphillips3078 e come on cut Frankie some slack. Nobody can sing like that man can ….he’s the greatest ever.
@@megbreezy7543
Miss Meg , Frank was good 👍 even gr8 . 👍 But Deano was in a league of his own .
He was my favorite weekly show to watch when I was a kid.
Dean, never lost his grease. Excellent song for him!
This is what you call total class.
Dean here was in the best shape of his later years. He’d kicked his dependence on pain meds, made up with Jeanne, was appearing regularly on TV and had successful SRO appearances in London and Paris. His energy and drive are obvious in this clip. Sadly, it wasn’t to last.
In scrolling through these comments I’m perplexed by those that think Dean was at his best with Jerry Lewis. He was constantly marginalized these years, even admitted by Lewis. Only after the breakup did people understand how important Dean was to the act. Anyone who actually saw Dean’s variety shows on NBC would know how gifted he was and better off without Lewis stepping on his talent. He played straight man, comic lead, sang, danced and made every guest on the show look better.
Spot on. The man could sing, act and make you laugh...oh and he was easy on the eyes. 😉
@@silviabasil2311 oh, you hussey
when did he go down hill... I know he died in 1995.
@@sanctuaryism
after his son died piloting a National Guard plane in 1987 it was all a slow decline downhill for Dean. Jeanne, Mort Viner and friends kept him going for a few more years but his heart wasn’t in it.
@@paulbrislen1484 thanks for that... poor guy... yep some just never get over loss. I know.
always wondered why he died as young as he still was.
CLASS=COOL DEAN BABY! He looks like he's having so much fun.
It was great being a part of this decade, and know real entertainers we’ve gone to hell in a slop bucket now.
It's nice seeing this full clip of Dean Martin! Excellent!
My Mom and I went to a dinner theatre in Las Vegas and got to hear Dean Martin sing, he was fabulous!
Great entertainment and a great President
Those were the days my friends. I thought it would never end.
Hello Guntalee
Dean was actually the best ever as a stand up comic
Expect the unexpected.
“Can he turn water into wine” “no” “Then what good is he” that is the best thing I’ve ever hesrd
Dean did the "people in my room joke" at every show, every single show.
😭😭😭
And he got away with it,,,, every single time
@@hellohandsome9875 until youtube
@@richardmckrell4899 he still gets away with it, cos he was/is so loved
@@hellohandsome9875 he's dead
This were the good old times and these two legendary.👍
God what a talent where did entertainers and music go like this
2 legends together!!!!!
For the good old time sake.
Times after time, and I'm still enjoyed this video.
RIP All the greats.
They'll always be remembered.
Thank you for the post. Your effort is appreciated.
A wonderful show when America was an adult country . from Japan
Lovely 😍 😍 😍 😍 😍 thankyou I grew up to the best stuff so grateful to be a part of all of this back then and know thankyou for sharing
I hope that we will once again see class and dignity return to presidential events
I wish I could go back to then. President, Frank, Dino, talent. When America was normal.
I was lucky enough to see Mr Sinatra in concert. If I had a time machine seeing Dean live would be one of the first stops.
Their likes will never pass this way again. A better era.
I love how deano does his act, what’s funny is how as he got older it went from the funny charismatic drunk to the confused old man😭
When it was morning in America, great times.
Two greats.
Yes America was another world inthose days. Untouchable , unattainable, magic and inspirational
Dean still had it in 85!I wish I was alive during that era.
They were great...n still are...🍸🤠🤙♥️
Hello maryjo how are you doing?
Class personified entertainment for a class personified President.
These two funny as hell, nothing like this in 2021.
Yes! Need more Presidents like Them!!
Both had Italian origins.
Bravissimi!
Icons. Never repeated. Ever again... Great voices..
Show me a You Tuber, Tik-Toker or "Influencer" that can even hold a candle to these gentlemen,
and I will sign over the deed to my house...
It's what the youth of today are lacking, the depth of talent and experience that entertainers like this bring to the table, for decades, not just a quick "Viral" video.
pure class.... legend of classness...dean martin...love you!
Sad to think these days are behind us but god I'm so glad I was around to see them and Frank live.
Simply professional! You "made a difference"!
The Greatest Show Master on Stage. Its pity that i donth see Sinatra 1985. In Vienna when he was. Hes Voice brouth milon People to Las Vegas. Reagans Colleague in Hollywood
Wow- smooth ❣️The last time class was well dressed, well behaved , loved American and Americans ! What happened to civility and honor - no matter where you’re from north ,south,east or west on the globe-don’t you want to see this again in the world 🙏 please respect yourself and everyone else ‼️
I think about what I see on the Grammys today and then I see this; boy how the world has changed!
