“Did you like the Richard Harris or William Shatner version better?”

IMHO, I liked Donna Summer’s disco-ized version of it back in ‘78 or ‘79.

I believe Langer’s is still there. They have their own parking lot which is watched by an attendant so your car is still there in one piece after you finish your corned beef sandwich.

I haven’t been to Factor’s yet. When I have a hankering for brisket or pastrami I usually end up at Canter’s.

Just my opinion, but I think Sinatra is overrated.

That was actually the first version I heard - back when I was a “tween.”

Someone left a corpse out in the lake
I don’t think that they would take it
Because it took so long to to break it
And I’ll never have that sledge hammer again!

I'm partial to the Donna Summer version myself.

Sinatra in his prime is supreme.

As he got older he could sometimes be guilty of bad musical decisions.
