- Dean Martin.
- What can one say? Dean Martin,.
- Dean Martin's personality was nothing like else. It is really strange that a person like Frank Sinatra and Dean's were friends when they both were so different. ... Dean's talent was very different from Frank's in that Dean was so relaxed. Frank was a perfectionist and Dean was perfection. I think the only challenge Dean had was try beat Bob Hope and Bing Crosby in golf at Rancho Mirage, California. ...
- The most funniest thing I could think about Dean is when NBC offered him his variety show on TV, Dean told them that the only way he would agree to a show was only showing up once a week to work, which he thought NBC would never go for it, BUT they did.
- I fortunately had the opportunity to see Dean Martin perform in 1986, at the MGM (What is now Bally's) in Las Vegas. I gave an usher a $20 tip to seat me as close to Dean Martin as possible, well he put me right smack in the middle right under Dean Martin where he performed. Dean was supposed to perform for only 3 hours, well he was so much fun that wound up performing over 4 hours instead. ... Seeing Dean on stage, was like seeing the last look of a God like ICON. He was getting old and everybody knew that one day Frank, Dean, and Sammy were no longer going to be with us. ... After that show at the MGM, a woman at a table asked everybody, "What will happen to music like this, when Dean and Frank are not here anymore, nobody will perform like those two. ...
- Anyway, Dean Martin exited his performance that night and came over to the front row, I was able to shake his wrinkled hand, he was old and tired but still wanting to perform. ...

29. The Dean Martin Show
- www.jumptheshark.com
- The Dean Martin Show.
- Never! Why can't Nick at Nite or TVLand run repeats of this great show? Is there anyone on the planet today as cool or laid back as Dean? That's Amore, pally. ...
- The Rolling Stones were the guest stars and Martin made a point of mocking their performance. ...
- By the way, Dean's drunken hack-job on the Stones was when he hosted Hollywood Palace, not on his show. ... When roasts were specials, they were edited broadcasts of Friars roasts that were piss-your-pants hysterical (Don Rickles and Groucho together on a dais); Dean's were schlock. ...
- Also Dean Martin was the coolest most laid back entertainer in Hollywood he will be missed. ...
- I loved Dean Martin and his laid back approach, but I missed leggy blondes in boots and hot pants. ...
- Are you SURE The Beatles appeared on TDMS?? Aren't you confusing them with the Rolling Stones? I am a big Beatles fan, and I've never read they appeared live on the Dean Martin Show. Dean mocked the Stones in '64 on Hollywood Palace. ...
- When did "The Dean Martin Show" jump the shark? When the PCs got control of the show, spiked the punch, and spoiled the party in the early '70's. ... Example: Unidentified bimbo: "But all those women! It could be fatal!" Dino: "Well, if they die, they die!" When did Dean Martin himself jump the shark? At the sudden, tragic death of his son in a 1987 plane crash. ...
- The Beatles never appeared on Dean Martin's show or any show that had Martin as the host, though Martin's kids did meet the Beatles when the group played the Hollywood Bowl in 1964. I've read several books on Dean Martin and the Beatles and I can guarantee you that they never appeared with Dean. It was the Rolling Stones appearance on the Hollywood Palace that Martin hosted and mocked the band during his introduction to them, as well as making a snide comment and rolling his eyes after they did their number. ... But, Dean Martin was still the coolest cat around and his cool was genuine as opposed to Mick Jagger's false cool and Keith Richards' druggy stance. ...
- I think it jumped when it became clear that Dean wasn't having fun anymore. I mean, at the end he'd come on, sing a toss-a-way number (after sliding down the poll) and then sit in the barber chair as Nipsey Russell told idiotic poems and pretended to cut Dean's hair. ... Dean was dangerous and really didn't give a hoot, but he wasn't spitting AT the audience, he was spitting FOR the audience. ... Dean was the real deal and one hell of a singer too. ... I still miss those Thursday nights when my dad and I would watch Dean and Foster Brooks and crack up. ... mom didn't like me to watch Dean, but I did anyway. ... I miss Dean and I miss this show. ...

- LOS ANGELES (AP) - Dean Martin, the easygoing, highball-sipping crooner who left the hit comedy team of Martin and Lewis to become a member of Hollywood's Rat Pack and the star of his own TV variety show, died Monday at 78.
- Martin and Jerry Lewis were top stars in movies, television and nightclubs when Martin broke up the act in 1956. The smart money figured Lewis would prosper while Martin would fade.
- But the dark-haired, handsome Martin became a much bigger star than he had been as straight man and singer, beginning with the 1958 war drama "The Young Lions," which also starred Montgomery Clift and Marlon Brando.
- "Dean was my brother - not through blood, but through choice," Sinatra, 80, said Monday in a statement. ... Our friendship has traveled down many roads over the years and there will always be a special place in my heart and soul for Dean. ...

50. Elvis & Dino
- www.chrisspedding.com
- According to Marion, Sam asked Elvis to run through some of his repertoire, which seemed to lean so heavily on Dean Martin stuff, she thought Elvis had decided ". ... if he was going to sound like anybody, it was going to be Dean Martin. ...
- Around 1955, Dean Martin had a big hit, "Memories Are Made Of This. ... Now, apart from the fact that Elvis borrowed that descending-bass-run-followed-by-guitar-chord ending from the arrangement on Martin's record, other common elements are that sexy, wobbly, almost hiccuping baritone vocal not yet identifiably "rock" until Elvis made it so and Martin's novel use of a four-piece male gospel-type vocal group which we may assume helped inspire Elvis, steeped as he was in traditional gospel music, to introduce the Jordanaires on his cut, effectively integrating them into a unique blend with his own lead vocal, thus establishing another rock archetype. Another obvious nod in Martin's direction, released when Elvis was well established as a pop mega-star in the summer of 1959, was Elvis's "My Wish Came True," which had an opening four-note motif identical to Martin's "Return To Me," (both titles having four syllables!) released in April 1958. ... Dean Martin and Elvis Presley were moving in such divergent paths by this time that none of this was commented upon or even noticed at the time. ... These three songs are even more compelling evidence of Martin's influence than Elvis's actual cover of Martin's 1950 ditty, "I Don't Care If The Sun Don't Shine" in 1955.
- Now, if it's so fashionable and cool to cite a black artist like Arthur Crudup, whose "That's All Right, Mama" Elvis recorded, as a bona fide influence, then why not the former piece of stylistic plundering? Without wishing to minimize Crudup's contribution to Presley's fast maturing style, Martin's influence seems to be pretty much ignored as unfashionable and uncool. ... Dare I suggest that the specter of such an artist as Martin so influencing their precious new savior was not to be countenanced by the rock religion's new priesthood?.
- ") Filmed later in Technicolor, Elvis's obsidian do had that same almost blue-black sheen you can see in Dean Martin's movies. And Martin at the time of which we speak was the most bankable of matinee idols: he made hugely successful pop records; starred (with partner Jerry Lewis) in a series of low budget/high yield light comedy movies; could and did write his own ticket on the lucrative Las Vegas circuit; and (importantly for Elvis) had mucho sex appeal! (Is this starting to make a little sense?).
- Martin was a genuine heartthrob, and with his self-mocking approach to sexuality demonstrated to Elvis how to cash in on this most marketable of commodities with the brazenness of a male Mae West!.
- Granted, Dean Martin was a comparative cultural and musical lightweight, but Elvis is not alone in music history in being able to combine incongruous influences into something world-shattering. ...
- The worst that could come out of this for me would be for there to be discovered a recording by Dean Martin of "Hound Dog. ...
