In 2001, THE RAT PACK LIVE AT THE SANDS was released, a live album from the early 1960s capturing the onstage antics of notorious cohorts Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis, Jr., and Dean Martin. Two years later, THE ULTIMATE RAT PACK COLLECTION picks up where its predecessor left off. Disc One features a different live recording from the same era, capturing the trio in all their martini-swilling glory. The second disc is a DVD of another performance from a few years later. Even though the video finds the Rat Pack nearing the end of its tether in 1965, the chemistry and onstage dynamism is just as remarkable.
Both discs feature the three singers performing both alone and together, and engaging in plenty of clowning around with each other. The DVD is heavier on classic Sinatra tunes, but the first disc has even more Dean-and-Frank schtick. That said, the footage of Sammy running through "One for My Baby" in the styles of about a dozen different singers is an uproarious moment, and to see the three men in action together is to truly understand the nature of both their artistic powers and their personal appeal.

    Terrific Sound

    weesie444 from Rochester, MI, Nov 12, 2008

    This CD was a gift for my father, and he loves it! We listened to it at his birthday party, and many people asked where I got it! Great entertainment.

    Great Nostalgia!

    The DVD is a wonderful show, with Dean Martin, Frank Sonatra, Sammy Davis, Jr, Johnny Carson, the Count Basie Band, and Quincy Jones as band director. If one has seen the Broadway play 'The Rat Pack', several of the comedic moments the actors use in that play are shown in the DVD. I found it to b funny, great music, and a joy to watch (even though it's in black and white). The CD is very good, although the disc that I received had a scratch on Dean Martin's last song. All in all, very funny and great to go back and see the guys in action!

    I love this C.D. and if I could I would give it six stars! The DVD is absolutely awsome and it is hard to believe Johnny Carson is in there as well. Even if it is your first voyage into the Rat Pack you will not be disapointed... The sound is great and the deal is fantastic!
