The greatest single entertainer may have been Sammy Davis jr. That guy was SERIOUS.

And Sammy Davis was multi-talented....he was so much more than a singer/dancer...

Regarding Judy Garland, I will agree she was ONE of the greatest entertainers....

cool

Judy was awesome. I love her. I've seen all her movies and have a few records too. What a voice and yes, she was one of the greatest entertainers.

Just remembering the days when it was okay to be an "entertainer" and when "entertainers" had personality and talent.
