Marcus, Henry, and Ed return to the story of Anton LaVey as the Church of Satan enters the spotlight, crossing paths with Susan Atkins, Michael Aquino, and the heavily borrowed Satanic Bible. But as the rituals get bigger and the followers get weirder, LaVey finally makes it in Hollywood, where his influence reaches The Devil's Rain and Mr. Show Business himself, Sammy Davis Jr. For Live Shows, Merch, and More Visit: www.LastPodcastOnTheLeft.comKevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Subscribe to SiriusXM Podcasts+ to listen to new episodes of Last Podcast on the Left ad-free, plus get Friday episodes a whole week early.

Going back to the mid-'60s, who would have thought that Allen Park had a music scene that would flesh out one of the finest groups to hit the charts in the Michigan music scene? Rick Stevers is a founding member of the mighty Frijid Pink, who continues to tell the story from behind the drum kit. Stevers is also a member of the Michigan Rock Legends Hall of Fame and the Pink's cover of 'House Of The Rising Sun' continues to be a household staple.    Here in part 2 of 2, from the pink bathrooms of the era, to the big stages playing with a 'who's who' of other '60s bands such as The Guess Who, studio time with Janis Joplin, and meeting the other 'House of The Rising Sun' band, Eric Burden & The Animals.    Being ahead of the curve, Frijid Pink spent more time on the road than many of their contemporaries, which Rick says that did more harm than good when it came to the Michigan fan base. Partying with Sammy Davis Jr., working with Don Brewer, speaking with Gordon Lightfoot, and being a car worker at Chrysler for over 17 years. All the albums, lineup changes and lost power to his father, never stopped Stevers. You have to dig into this episode, NOW!

A Craigslist Sammy Davis Jr., a slimy, dying man-boy and an old mommy are all here for the... Rat Pack Rat Eddie Rouse gets hired by a mom to do his Sammy Davis Jr. act for her dying son. He turns out to be Steve Little and things get weird, but Rouse does do some singing to this poor, sweet, disgusting son. I love the late Eddie Rouse. I love the still alive Todd Rohal. So, for a birthday gift to myself, we watched this short film. It's filthy, grotesque, full of heart, shocks and hilarity. Basically, it seems to be, in fact, a Todd Rohal film. Watch it on youtube and watch this episode. Join the Rohal army.

In 1964, Lorey Kaye, a twenty-year-old from New Haven, CT, moved to Manhattan to start a new life in the big city. Lorey was a fresh-faced, dark-haired hippie, who attracted attention as much for her headstrong, determined, street smart attitude as for her striking good looks. She was hired as a waitress in a new nightclub that had just opened in Times Square – called Steve Paul’s ‘The Scene'. The club was an immediate hit with gigs by the likes of BB King, Jimi Hendrix, and Sammy Davis Jr., regular visitors like Andy Warhol and Edie Sedgwick – and Lorey was at the heart of the action. Another group, The Lovin’ Spoonful, also played there regularly, and their lead singer, John Sebastian, took a shine to her. John and Lorey started seeing each other, and Lorey became his muse, inspiring him to compose a number of the group's hit singles about her, such as ‘She's A Lady' and ‘Rain on the Roof', even mentioning her by name in some of the lyrics. Lorey and John Sebastian (1967) They got hitched in 1966 – by then Lorey had started work as an insider gossip columnist at Hit Parade magazine – and now known as Lorey Sebastian, she became a popular staple in the 1960s Greenwich Village folk-rock music scene. Lorey and John's relationship was glamorous, high-profile, and short-lived. Lorey broke up with John in 1968 when they were in Ireland. The legend is that she fell in with a group of gypsies, and felt compelled to tune in, drop out, and join them instead. It was said that John never fully recovered from the breakup. Lorey (right), with John Sebastian and Mama Cass (1967) Fast forward to the mid 1970s. Lorey was back in New York, now in her mid 30s and looking for a purpose. She'd become a member of the television and film workers union, with the vague ambition of being a still photographer on movie sets. To make a little extra money, she also did work as a crew member on sex films. It was on a Gerry Damiano movie that she met Jamie Gillis. Jamie sidled up to her, pushing her in the back, and exclaiming, “What a place to bump into a girl like you!” It was corny but it worked, and Lorey invited him back to her place. The mutual attraction was instant and sexual – but, for Jamie, there was something more this time. For a confirmed promiscuous bachelor, Jamie confided to friends that, whisper it quietly, Lorey might actually be the one. He spent time with her, encouraged her photography ambitions, taking her to exhibitions and galleries, and was tickled that one of his favorite songs, The Lovin’ Spoonful's ‘Daydream,' had been written for her. Not to suggest that Jamie's relationship with New York magazine's Insatiable Critic, Gael Greene, was over. Far from it. Even if the novelty of Jamie and Gael's physical and emotional relationship had subsided, they were still intent on documenting their lives, in and out of bed, for a proposed joint-autobiographical book. They continued to go the city's restaurants, cultural events, and glamorous parties, while Jamie spent his in-between time wrestling with whether he wanted an acting career, playing poker, going to the occasional audition, and making semi-regular starring appearances in adult films. In short, Jamie wanted to pursue Lorey, but not give up the affair with Gael. This is Part 2 of the story of Jamie Gillis and Gael Greene in 1978. Jamie This podcast is 49 minutes long.

Harry Altman: Buffalo's Master Showman, by Susan Fenster, is a biography about the impresario who ran the famous Town Casino and Glen Casino in Western New York, bringing major stars like Sammy Davis Jr. and Jayne Mansfield to the region from the 1920s to the 1960s. The book details his rise from a Russian-Jewish immigrant to a major entertainment figure, navigating challenges like antisemitism and organized crime, and covers the history of his venues and the subsequent rock venue, The Inferno. Published in late 2025, it's available through Buffalo History Books and other local retailers. About Susan Fenster Susan Fenster graduated from Buffalo State University with degrees in history and journalism. For more than 30 years, she has built a career as a writer and author specializing in non-fiction with a focus on New York State history. She now lives in Williamsville, New York, near Glen Park.

The final podcast on Have You Ever Seen in Black History Month talks for the 4th time about a movie with a primarily black cast. Otto Preminger often directed Issues Movies and here he's dealing with the Gershwin opera that's all about murder, rape, drug addiction, fishing and poverty…with some racism thrown in there too. Porgy And Bess is set-bound and melodramatic though. Bad print aside, the story and the execution often feel phony. The actors DO sell the passion better than the script or maybe even the original opera does. Sidney Poitier, Dorothy Dandridge, Brock Peters, Diahann Carroll and Sammy Davis Jr. actually do a terrific job with this not-always-effective material. So tune in for this 721st episode as I tackle yet another musical here in 2026: Porgy And Bess. Well, Actually: George Gershwin DID write the song "Summertime" for the 1935 opera, but DuBose Heyward came up with the lyrics. Also, for those interested in my quest to see absolutely, positively everything AFI-related, there are developments on that front (other nominated films on various lists) that will be discussed in future shows.

Joe Piscopo navigates a series of technical difficulties while broadcasting live from a hotel balcony in Florida. Despite being forced to "phone in" the show due to equipment failure, Piscopo maintains an upbeat tone, utilizing the mishap to illustrate the theme of humility and his personal "humility gremlins." The program serves as a tribute to Black History Month, specifically highlighting how Frank Sinatra broke the color barrier in the entertainment industry by supporting legends like Sammy Davis Jr., Ella Fitzgerald, and Count Basie. Through a mix of classic tracks and personal anecdotes, Piscopo celebrates the enduring legacy of Sinatra's musicianship and his role as a social justice advocate who demanded equality for his African-American colleagues.

DINO, AND SAMMY, AND FRANK - O MY!What tomfoolery! It's 4 o'clock in the morning, and these bad boys are just getting started. This recording is a rare glimpse into the real, live, Rat Pack experience - and, the slightly distorted, overloaded sound is just part of the cinema verite. “YOU ARE THERE,” as Walter Cronkite once intoned. The year is 1962. Dean Martin has circled back to the 500 club in Atlantic City, where his career with Jerry Lewis first exploded, and his rat pack brothers in arms are there to support. For anybody devoted to, or interested in this celebrated entourage of 20th century entertainers, you can't get any closer to the actual experience of being there. The banter is not particularly clever (they're enjoying themselves, I won't say MORE than the audience, but equally, at least). There are lapses in taste and attention to keeping the show moving - (an extended drunken improv about stools is one example) - and, though the finest singers of that generation are not always on perfect pitch here, it matters not a jot! The real personalities of these icons is vividly on display. The pecking order and inter-relationships are fascinating. And, as far as sheer entertainment value goes: The band swings hard, the legendary Sammy Davis Jr. sings, dances, and does impressions; Sinatra and Dino croon medleys to die for, and the whole 40 minutes is boffo. Not to be missed!“The 4AM Rat Pack performance presented here was privately pressed on vinyl as a special gift to very special 500 Club patrons.We present this untouched audio from the original acetate as it represents the taste and feel of this historic occasion.”By Don AltobellI will never forget August 26, 1962.I was 24 at the time and after having the good fortune of seeing Dean Martin's appearance at the 500 Club in Atlantic City on Aug 19 -- his first solo gig since his split with Jerry Lewis -- the following week gave me an added treat.Thanks to a drawing I did of Dean, I was able to see his opening shows and also attend rehearsals. And 500 Club owner Skinny Damato introduced me to Dean, who autographed my drawing, which still hangs on my living room wall.Fans knew that Dean's pal, Frank Sinatra, would join him midweek to conclude the engagement. Atlantic City was bursting at the seams, with all hotels, motels, and restaurants jam-packed. At the club itself, tables were pushed together to make room for more patrons. It was a bonanza time for Atlantic City long before the first casino was opened.That closing night after early dinner, I made my way through the block-long line and was ushered inside by a policeman who remembered me after seeing me at so many shows. I didn't mind that I had no seat.Dean was introduced as the star of the show and opened with "I'm Gonna Sit Right Down and Write Myself a Letter" followed by "Volare," "On An Evening in Roma" and "Goody, Goody."Then Sinatra sang, "I Get a Kick Out Of You," followed by Sammy Davis' Jr. doing "The Lady Is A Tramp." (Davis also imitated some actors singing the song including James Cagney and Marlon Brando).Then Frank, Dean and Sammy clowned around and sang "You Are Too Beautiful," "Love Walked Right In" and "This Is My First Affair."While Dean and Frank sang, Sammy danced to "I Can't Give You Anything But Love," "Too Marvelous for Words," "It Had To Be You," and "I've Got the World on a String."Then all three stars joined to close the s

In this Hollywood Godfather podcast episode, Gianni celebrates his birthday with surprise videos and a heartfelt rendition of 'Happy Birthday' by Engelbert Humperdinck. In addition to delighting listeners with personal anecdotes from Hollywood and Las Vegas, Gianni answers questions from fans about his experiences and opinions. Ranging from his time with Frank Sinatra and Sammy Davis Jr. to discussing his new book 'Mafia Secrets,' Gianni shares insights on past events, appreciation for life, and thoughts on notable figures like Marilyn Monroe. The episode concludes on a note of gratitude and encouragement for listeners to be kind and reflective, especially during the holiday season.

This week on “Talk About Las Vegas,” Ira sits down with Earl Turner—singer, song-writer, musician, dancer, and master storyteller ahead of his holiday show (joined by Elisa Fiorillo and Ken Young), “Another Very Soulful Christmas” lighting up Myron's at The Smith Center, December 17–18. In this episode, Earl reflects on a life shaped by music—from picking up the guitar at age 10 to learning a lesson (involving music) while preparing to perform in New Orleans. He opens up about what keeps the spark alive on stage, why music is such a powerful and personal art form, and how performers truly serve their audiences—and get just as much back in return. Earl shares unforgettable moments, including the first time he saw James Brown and Diana Ross, and discusses his commanding on-stage persona that demands attention—while embracing a quieter, more grounded life offstage. He talks about the joy of both downtime and performance, the blessing of playing for audiences who genuinely want to be there, and how that energy fuels his work. The conversation also dives into how “Another Very Soulful Christmas” came together—his first holiday show was in 2022—how he selects songs that inspire and lift spirits, why he chose Elisa Fiorillo and Ken Young as collaborators, and why he's adding “Please Come Home for Christmas” to this year's set. Earl also shares insights about fans who travel from out of town to see the show, priceless advice from Sammy Davis Jr., and the difference between inspiration and the hard work that turns it into something magical. It's a heartfelt, soulful, and joyful conversation—perfectly timed for the holiday season. (Also Watch Full Podcast Video)

Music industry veteran Eddie Gilreath pulls up to the Corner Booth at Skip Paige's Little Bar to trace an extraordinary journey from Philadelphia's sound to global stages. With hosts Patrick Evans and Randy Florence, he recalls faking his first bass gig at 14, serving in Panama during tense Cold War days, then rising through Motown and Warner Bros. to help break artists like the Spinners and George Benson. Eddie shares inside stories about working with icons including Frank Sinatra, Ray Charles, Smokey Robinson, Michael Jackson, Bonnie Raitt, Curtis Mayfield, and more—plus why some of the most memorable moments happened offstage. He talks about smashing industry barriers as a pioneering Black executive, his “Black Music Is Green” initiative, and how streaming has rewritten the rules for new artists.

En esta 2da parte de la saga Anton LaVey, explora cómo su filosofía se transformó en una religión activa y controvertida, "La Iglesia de Satán," en los años 60 y 70. Se adentra en los rituales teatrales de la iglesia, sus conexiones con Hollywood (como Sammy Davis Jr. y Jayne Mansfield), y cómo fue absorbida y distorsionada por el "Pánico Satánico" de los 80. También se analiza el ocaso de LaVey, su legado en la Iglesia de Satán tras su muerte, y la diferencia fundamental entre la Iglesia de Satán original y El Templo Satánico moderno.
