He's not that good. There was a young kid a few seasons back on American Idol who did superb renditions of the Sinatra standards.

Landau shoujdl do Sammy Davis Jr instead.. When I read the headline, having never seen the show, I said to myself...Landau? Martin Landau? Mission Impossible? Is he still alive?

Fall 68, en route to 29 Palms..stopped for a weekend in Vegas..caught Sinatra's show at the Sands...best live act I ever saw..and the monologue was awesome...so much stuff they couldn't do/say today..because of all the PC crapola..

Best lines:

"This is a very classy hotel. They bring Sammy Davis in jusy to clean the place.

Sammy just wrote a book..YES I CAN. I read it, and sent him a telegram. NO YOU CAN'T"
