A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Vic Damone is a lasting legend of American pop music. Befriended by Frank Sinatra and encouraged by legends like Perry Como and Tommy Dorsey, he had one of the greatest voices ever recorded. Now he tells his life story and what a life it was! A mob boss tried to throw him out a window when he broke off an engagement to the boss s daughter. He married glamorous women including the beautiful Anna Pierangeli and the tempestuous Diahann Carroll. Judy Garland gave him his first screen test, he got drunk for the first time with Ava Gardner and he went golfing with George Burns and Jack Benny. Oh, and he took a nude chorus girl into the steam room of the Sands Hotel where Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr. and Dean Martin were relaxing between shows. SINGING WAS THE EASY PART is a rollicking star-studded memoir from the great Vic Damone.

Revue de presse :

A crooner s breezy memoir...offers tales of vengeful mobsters, celebrity heartbreak, and carousing in Las Vegas at the height of its glamour....A forthright, compelling look at a vanished, glittering era of show business. --Kirkus Reviews
