My personal favorite of his albums was one of him doing impersonations(and if you like impersonations and haven't heard Sammy, you're missing out) while singing standards, but I couldn't remember the name of the album...until tonight with the assistance of the internet.

I remember that we
did talk about him . . . now that you mention it.
He not only did
everything -- singing, acting, dancing, impersonations -- he did them superbly.
I remember seeing him being interviewed once, and the host asked him how it felt to be a Superstar.
I'll never forget his answer:
"Man, the minute you start thinking of yourself as a Superstar, you're in BEAUCOUP TROUBLE."
Hell of a guy!
