"The King Of Cool !"

The Dean Martin Show. From altar boy to dealing blackjack in the small town of Steubenville, to the Rat Pack, Dino lived a glittering life. One of the things that made "The King of Cool" so special, was that he was the "only entertainer to have a hit records, a hit TV show and 55 hit movies." "Let's have a Vino for Dino!"

Rehearsals

The Dean Martin Show. Sunday morning rehearsals lasted about two hours. Lunch break followed by three hours of some of the "zaniest" off script sketches. Dean runs down a short flight of stairs, runs up to his mark, and who knows what's next? Mistakes by the "King of Cool" were ignored, Dean made them part of his "schtick!" We all wanted the Show to go on, but around 4pm Dean signed off and it was 'wrap!" "Let's have a Vino for Dino!"
