Buddy Greco is a true Las Vegas Legend who has headlined in Vegas since the fifties and spent the sixties based at the famous 'Sands' with The Rat Pack. He started his career as pianist and vocalist for the great Benny Goodman and went on to become one of America's most popular entertainers. He has the rare distinction of being asked by Frank Sinatra to record for his own record label 'Reprise' and was also the only American chosen to perform at the Royal Command Performance with the Beatles in 1963. Grammy and Emmy Awards, along with hit records such as 'The Lady is a Tramp', 'Around the World' and 'Girl Talk', propelled Buddy to Legendary status. Today he is recognised as a major influence on the careers of the likes of Harry Connick Jnr and Michael Buble. He has recorded 68 albums including a live album with Frank and Sammy. In this swinging show he will not only perform his superb hits, but also recall amazing memories of his days with the Rat Pack, Marilyn Monroe and many other showbiz greats.
