As a kid my mom used to adore Sammy Davis and as a result I grew up appreciating his musical sense. Sammy was a crooner but he had a very original and expressive voice and could he ever sing! "Our Shining Hour" is one of his finest jazz moments with the huge sound of Count Basie! This album was arranged and conducted by Quincy Jones as well so you k ow it gonna rock!
I love the tune "Blues for mr. Charlie" with Sammy's emotive voice and Basie's jazz blues aura....pure magic!
