Oh, how I loved him. Such a wonderful, talented and handsome man. Daddy used to love the variety shows, so we grew up watching Dean (and Red Skelton,, Ed Sullivan, etc.)
I will ALWAYS buy the LP's when I see them at the thrift shops.
And I have some sheet music, too:
I don't have a lot of CD's - not enough! (Top picture below is from the booklet inside the CD "Capitol collector's Series")
I guess that's really all right - since I don't mind listening to the ones I do have OVER and OVER. I LOVE the sound of his voice!
Oh, Dino...

Absolutely my favorite male singer of all-time.
I have "the Essential Dean Martin" CD and we always listen to it when on drives. Sometimes twice. Love the guy! Did you know he was Tori Spelling's godfather? Love T

another great subject for a post!
Dino was the best! As has been said many times, "He made it look easy". If it were easy, there would have been more like him, but I haven't heard one yet. And he was funny as well, both on his variety show and the "roast" show he did later. One of a kind!
Oh...and a great actor too!
Hi Heidi!
Oh I remember Dean so well. My parents just adored him. I remember watching his variety show when I was a young girl.
I didn't know until recently when I heard his former wife Jeanne say that he had just wasted away after his son Deano had passed away. How terrible sad. I think he was probably the most gentle man of the whole Rat Pack era.
Deanna :D
I still remember watching his show on tv. It was just a part of our week. Twyla
I have said this before, but I want all those old Dean Martin variety shows that are on DVD that they sell on TV at 2 in the morning!!
