Dean Martin – Forever Dino LP Coloured Vinyl

Dean Martin – Forever Dino

(Red/Turquoise Half-Half Vinyl)

The King Of Cool.   

On a warm night in 1950s Las Vegas, neon lights shimmered across the desert sky as a man took the stage with effortless grace. Cigarette in hand, smile easy, voice smooth as velvet — Dean Martin sang as if the music were part of a conversation, as if every listener were an old friend. Born Dino Paul Crocetti in 1917 in Steubenville, Ohio, he was the son of Italian immigrants who dreamed beyond their steel-town life. He boxed under the name Kid Crochet, worked as a card dealer, and sang in nightclubs until his natural baritone made him unforgettable — warm, relaxed, and utterly unforced. In 1946 he met Jerry Lewis, and together they became one of the most successful acts in show business, dominating clubs, radio, and Hollywood. After their split in 1956, many doubted Martin could succeed alone — but “That’s Amore,” “Sway,” “Return to Me,” “Volare,” and “Everybody Loves Somebody” proved them wrong, defining an era of romance and cool that even the Beatles couldn’t eclipse. Hollywood embraced him in Rio Bravo and more than fifty films, while the Rat Pack years with Frank Sinatra and Sammy Davis Jr. turned him into a symbol of 1960s glamour. On The Dean Martin Show (1965–74), his easy humor, quick wit, and playful spontaneity made him a national favorite. Away from the spotlight, Martin preferred golf, family, and quiet afternoons. When he died on Christmas Day 1995, the world lost not just a singer, but the man who taught it that true style means making life look easy. Dean Martin — forever the King of Cool.
