This cracked me up from the very beginning… “Schenectady” is about 15 minutes down the road from me, and when people use that city in a joke, it just is too hilarious to me. I didn’t know much about Foster Brooks until getting into Dean Martin and the “clean comedy” of the era - simply […]

I’m still waiting for someone to buy me that video subscription (or even just a few individual DVDs) to the Dean Martin Variety Show archives (including the roasts, of course). I love this stuff, and yes, I know this is more 60’s and less “classic crooner” (especially with Miss Horne involved) but I think this […]

Studio says producer sold rights it didn’t own.
NBC’s complaint alleges that many of the episode excerpts belong to the studio—and not Greg Garrison Productions. The studio says it owns the copyrights to 235 episodes. “Material portions of at least 86 episodes of The Dean Martin Show owned by NBCU have been copied and included on […]

I always loved the “chatter” whenever crooners get on stage. Here we’ve got Dean Martin and Bing Crosby (whose voices have been compared for decades as they’re very close in sound) and they’re boppin’ out short little “diddies” and incorporating a little banter back and forth between them. Great clip!
“It’s doo-bee-doo-bee-doo-bee-doo-bee-doo”
“That style you know began […]

Okay, so as of Friday, August 31 TVAtlas has charged my credit card for the Dean Martin Forever Cool stuff I ordered. (Link goes to the first post I wrote on this topic.) I’m hoping this means that it’s well on it’s way to my home, and I understand I have to figure that at […]

Okay, I ordered my Dean Martin “Forever Cool” CD/DVD and coffee mug on the 12th of August.
I got an email on the 21st, NINE DAYS LATER, telling me that it was on backorder.
I pre-ordered!
So I replied to the email, asking why it took them nine days, 7 of which were after the official release […]

“Congrats Pally - You ARE cool! Dino Would Be Proud!”
Take the Dean Martin “Are you cool?” quiz and see if Dino would even speak to you were he here today… ;)

Okay, so it’s finally here. I’ve heard different people with different opinions on this sort of thing, but I’m sorry, I’m so mad for Dino that I just had to pre-order this from DeanMartin.Com! Of course, the one I bought has a bonus DVD in it, with home videos and interviews with the others on […]

Probably the most famed “Rat Pack” movie of all time would be Ocean’s 11. The new version’s title is actually Ocean’s Eleven which really actually gets on my nerves. I wonder if that was a mistake or on purpose, and either way it aggrevates me. WHY would they do that? Because it’s a remake? Pfeh.

Dean Martin was once a welterweight boxer. He lost 11 of 12 matches before stopping.
His given name was Dino Paul Crocetti, and when he first started his singing career, he was billed as “Dino Martini”. He changed his name later after singing for bandleader Sammy Watkins, at Sammy’s urging.
His flop at the Riobamba in 1943 […]

All about the style, swagger, and sexy hip of the smooth-voiced singers from the 40's, 50's, and 60's era of music and life.
