When Sammy Davis Jr was late for an appearance on Parkinson (UK chat show), Buddy Rich and Roy Castle had to improvise
One of the greatest moments on Parkinson came 40yrs ago in 1982 when BUDDY RICH and ROY CASTLE – #botd in 1932 – improvised the hell out of it in order to buy time for a surprise (late) special guest – SAMMY DAVIS JR.

A lot of immense talent casually on display there.
A different time.
You had me at Buddy Rich. All 3 amazingly talented guys.

Great share, thanks OP.
Is that Kenny Everette in the background? I was just thinking about him the other day.

I love when Sammy Davis just drops the sticks like “well, I just got shown up”
Not just great talent, it was great showmanship
That was fucking great actually. They didn’t sit around and go “well we gotta vamp, what’s new with you these days”
So much talent, poise and showmanship
