Title: Jerry Lewis dies at 91
Post by: SeilerBird on August 20, 2017, 01:56:43 PM

One of the all time greatest comedians passed away today. The articles about him always stress that he was a great comic, a great nightclub act with Dino, a humanitarian, a great singer with lots of hit records and a great movie star. But they never mention he was also a great musician. Check out one of the funniest bits he ever did, a drum battle with Buddy Rich. You gotta be great to go head to head with Buddy.

He was also reported to be the fastest six-gun draw among the Hollywood crowd. RIP Mr.Lewis.

Correct and the second fastest was Sammy Davis Jr, another Hollywood type that could do anything. This will blow your mind:

Too sad. If makes you feel your age when the icons from your childhood are slipping away. He was one of the greats.
