It's great to have this classic slice of American showbiz at home, each segment preserved here in wonderful, rich color videotape from as early as 1962. Also, the sound quality is very good, which says a lot about the excellence of the professional equipment they were using at the time and the care lavished on the show by the crew. The image is somewhat grainy, but it shows remarkably little of its age when you consider this material is now about 50 years old. Also, it's good to see the disc is region-free, making it available to customers over the world.

The selection kicks off marvelously with an uninterrupted sequence showcasing the versatile talents of Andy Williams, The New Christy Minstrels, and especially Sammy Davis Jr., presenting his singing, dancing and vocal mimicry in the best possible light. This is followed, among other things, by Bill Cosby's great 'street football' comedy monologue, presented here in full (he was one of the few guests who was allowed to completely improvise and run overtime), and a wonderfully deadpan clockwork pantomime starring Sid Caesar, in which Andy suddenly manages to look a dead ringer for Buster Keaton.

There are also stunning vocal tours de force from Righteous Brother Bobby Hatfield in his classic "Unchained Melody" and Ella Fitzgerald in her freely improvised rendition of "Sweet Georgia Brown", fine laid-back duets and banter with Bing Crosby on "In a Little Spanish Town" and "Don't Fence Me In", and stellar singing from Julie Andrews with Andy and The Osmond Brothers. In her case, though, it's a pity we're missing out on the equally great duet with Andy on "Our Language of Love" from the same show, and a surprisingly raucous, thrilling turn on ...

If you like musical numbers only & don't mind monaural sound, this may be your favorate. I began viewing him in '67. By then, his show had such guest stars as Johnathan Winters & Flip Wilson as well as someone dressed in a bear costume infrequently interrupting whatever was going on. His show, to this viewer, was something much more than this "greatest of" video. Unfortunately, version ain't it.
On the technical side, this dvd will probably look best on a smaller screen. On my 55" Panny, 60's era video really shows it's age. But then, 50 years from now, they'll say the same thing about HDTV.

It was nothing more than interviews with other singing stars. I had hoped for a DVD with Andy singing which this DVD was not. Very disappointed. Would not recommend it to anyone.
