Joy from Sammy and Joya Usually I don't title the episode exactly the same as the album I'm featuring, but this one was just too good not to use. Yes, we will hear the artist I think is the greatest showman who ever lived, but this record is really about Joya. She is not widely known today, despite her significant contributions, because of a combination of historical and social factors that often affected women and African American artists in jazz. But the gang at the Design Label teamed her up in 1957 with a fast rising star in Davis Jr to introduce her solo recordings to the world. So, get ready to hear a voice that brought joy when I saw him on stage and a voice that brought joy when I heard this record in Volume 245: Sammy Jumps With Joya. For more information about this album, see the Discogs webpage for it.  Credits and copyrights Sammy Davis Jr., Joya Sherrill – Sammy Jumps With Joya Label: Design Records  – DLP 22 Format: Vinyl, LP, Album, Mono Released: 1957 Genre: Jazz We will hear 7 of the 10 songs from this album. Sammy Davis Jr. backed by Orchestra under the direction of Morton Stevens  – The Gypsy In My Soul Recorded in February 1953 written by Clay Boland and Moe Jaffe Joya Sherrill – Baby Me written by Lou Handman, Archie Gottler, Harry Harris Joya Sherrill  – Easy Street written by Alan Rankin Jones Joya Sherrill  – Between The Devil And The Deep Blue Sea written by Harold Arlen, Ted Koehler Joya Sherrill  – Thou Swell written by Richard Rodgers, Lorenz Hart Joya Sherrill  – The End Of A Love Affair written by Edward Redding Sammy Davis Jr. – Chloe written by Gus Kahn, Charles N.

Jahrgang 1934, Fernsehntalkmaster, Entertainer und Produzent. Er war der Pionier des Kochshow-Booms im deutschen Fernsehen. Mitte der 90er startete seine Sendung "Alfredissimo". Mit seiner lässigen und unnachahmlichen Art ist der Moderator und Fernsehkoch vielen im Gedächtnis geblieben. Alfred Franz Maria Biolek erblickt im tescheslowakischen Freistadt mitten im Krieg 1934 das Licht der Welt. Seinen Geburtsort, das heutige Karwin, in dem Deutsche, Tschechen, Polen, Schlesier und Juden zusammenleben, empfindet der niedliche Bub mit Sepplhut als Paradies seiner Kindheit, aus dem er früh vertrieben wird. 1946 wird die Familie aus Niederschlesien vertrieben und findet Unterschlupf in Waiblingen bei Stuttgart, wo sein Vater als Rechtsanwalt weiterarbeitet. Der Tod des älteren Bruders und die Schulzeit in den frühen Jahren prägen ihn. Nach dem Abitur 1954 studiert er Jura in Freiburg, München und Wien. Nach dem Staatsexamen arbeitet er in der Kanzlei seines Vaters - wechselt jedoch zu einer größeren Kanzlei und wird Mitglied der Münchner Boheme. 1963 holt ihn das ZDF als Justitziar zu sich. Doch schon bald wechselt er in die Redaktion des Magazins „drehscheibe“ und steigt wenig später als stellvertretender Unterhaltungschef des ZDF auf. Dann aber verläßt Alfred Biolek den Sender und wird Produzent bei der Bavaria Film in München. Berühmte Unterhaltungshows und Talkformate wie “Am laufenden Band mit Rudi Carrel“, „Kölner Treff“, „Bio’s Bahnhof“, „Bei Bio“, „Mensch Meier“ und„Boulevard Bio“ gehen auf sein Konto. Zuletzt kochte er in „alfredissimo“ und gab zahlreiche Kochbücher heraus. Für all das wurde er mit Preisen und Auszeichnungen geehrt. Zudem war er Honorarprofessor an der Kunsthochschule für Medien in Köln und Gründer der „Alfred Biolek Stiftung – Hilfe für Afrika”. Am 23.07.2021 ist Alfred Biolek im Alter von 87 Jahren gestorben.

Keyboardist: Gail NoblesStory by Gail NoblesPhoto: Public Domain Wikipedia Let us pause for a moment and reflect upon the majestic journey of Johnny Taylor! Yes, Johnny, that soulful sage, that philosopher of soul, who took us on a lyrical pilgrimage to a place that words can barely capture—Soul Heaven! Oh, it was more than just a dream; it was a divine rendezvous, a celestial concert where the echoes of greatness linger. He found himself immersed in a symphony of voices, in a gathering of luminaries—the Bar-Kay's, the smooth croon of Sam Cooke, the electric energy of Jr. Walker, and the captivating presence of Sammy Davis Jr. just to name a few! Each note danced through the air like a whisper, wrapping around his spirit and lifting him higher, higher into the realms of glory.And oh, what joy it must have brought him! He didn't want to wake up, dear friends. No, he was basking in a brilliance that transcended time—a communion with those who once cast their shadows over the stage of life, living legends reunited in harmony. Can you feel the rhythm of joy? Can you sense the light of love? In Soul Heaven, there is no darkness.But now, as the sun sets on Johnny Taylor's life, we find comfort in knowing that the Lord called him home. And perhaps, just perhaps, in that sacred moment, Johnny stepped into the very Dream that he sang about! He joined those celestial souls, those King's and Queen's of the past, in an everlasting place where the music never fades.Oh, Johnny, philosopher of soul, your echoes still! You took us to heights unknown, and though you are no longer here within our midst, the legacy you left lingers like a sweet melody in our hearts. Soul Heaven awaits us all.I'm Gail Nobles.

This week on “Talk About Las Vegas With Ira,” Ira sits down with Andrew Davies Gans, director of the new documentary, "Voices: The Danny Gans Story," premiering June 20 at the 28th Annual Dances With Films festival at the iconic TCL Chinese Theatre in Hollywood. The film honors the remarkable yet often overlooked legacy of Danny Gans, a legendary Las Vegas entertainer whose name was once synonymous with the Strip. Though his star burned brightly during his lifetime, his passing on May 1, 2009, left only a fleeting memory in the city he helped define. Andrew shares why now—over a decade later—felt like the right time to tell his father's story. He opens up about the emotional journey behind the camera, the challenges of wrangling a complex production delayed by COVID, and how a project he thought would take two years turned into a nearly five-year labor of love. Featuring heartfelt interviews with Louie Anderson, Donny Osmond, and Las Vegas entertainment columnists Norm Clarke and John Katsilometes, the film sheds light on Danny's extraordinary talent, unmatched work ethic, and the pain he kept hidden behind his smile. From Danny's deep admiration for Sammy Davis Jr. to his relentless drive, athletic mind-set, and close relationship with his own father, Voices explores the man behind the Vegas marquee. Despite his enormous popularity within Las Vegas, Danny remained a relative unknown beyond it—largely by choice, relying on word-of-mouth rather than flashy marketing. Now, this powerful and intimate documentary aims to restore Danny Gans to his rightful place in entertainment history—and introduce him to a global audience for the first time.

Back before World War II, when racism was still a mainstream attitude with little or no social stigma attached, Portland was not a very friendly town for Black people. It's not that way any more, of course. There's still racism; but the toxic race-hierarchalism that winked at lynchings and enabled the rise of the Ku Klux Klan — that, thankfully, is a distant and uncomfortable memory today. And one has to wonder how much of that transformation — not just in Portland, but around the nation — can be attributed to the influence of one man, a man still today widely known as “The World's Greatest Entertainer”: Sammy Davis, Jr. Davis came to Portland with his dance group, the Will Mastin Trio — composed of Davis, his father, and his father's best friend, Will Mastin — just after the Second World War. For a little while he was a regular in P-town's clubs and Vaudeville theaters. ...

This episode was originally released on December 14, 2021. Listen to help prep for the next episode of our new season, The Old Man is Still Alive. In the mid-1960s, 47 year-old Dean Martin proves he's still got it by knocking the Beatles off the top of the pop charts, and by launching his long-running TV show, which brought a version of his nightclub act into America's living rooms every week. But his middle-aged drunk schtick sours as the decade of hippies and Vietnam wears on. Sammy Davis Jr has his own challenges, living up to the expectations of a new generation of activists--and he only makes matters worse by embracing Richard Nixon.
