| This fascinating DVD is a "must have" for all those who want to experience Las Vegas, "the way it used to be." Buddy Greco is a consummate artist, who is a surviving member of a vanished breed of performers who can do it all. To this day he is the personification of stage glamor within his own ranks. Part One For the first time ever Buddy has spoken in-depth about his incredible life. He has an amazing collection of photographs and memorabilia gathered over nearly 70 years in show business. Buddy performs Misty and two of his favorite ballads Bewitched, Bothered & Bewildered and You Better Go Now with the trop. He gives us a great arrangement of Smoke Gets In Your Eyes with the big band. The finale is a great rendition of Buddy's favorite, MacArthur Park. Part Two Buddy was one of the headliners during the heydey of Las Vegas, an era of true intrigue. Great friends with Sinatra and the Rat Pack, Buddy recalls those days with affection. Also, Buddy was one of the last people to see Marilyn Monroe, just days before her death. Until now, these photographs have never been made public. Buddy performs Yes, Sir, That's My Baby, Theme From Tootsie, It Might Be You, Nat King Cole Medley (Paper Moon, Route 66, Start All Over Again), L-O-V-E and The Lady Is A Tramp with the trio and Am I Blue. Part Three Includes the documentary, Las Vegas Like It Used To Be, featuring photographs from Buddy Greco's personal collection and archive footage of The Strip, mixed with breathtaking shots of Las Vegas today, edited to the songs and music of Buddy Greco. His program gives a unique perspective of Las Vegas history and what it has become. Features special guests Lezlie Anders (Buddy's wife), Sal Richards and Bob Anderson. Performances include: Movin' On, Making Whoopie, You're Nobody Till Somebody Loves You, The More I See You, Volare and Luck Be A Lady. |
