Gail Martin is FANTASTIC! She really is like a young female Deano, charming face, full rich voice and the same relaxed style of singing with all the bends and swoops
Yes I think she’s the one who had the talent of the Martin children. She seemed very comfortable on stage. Deana sings but she’s not as loose as her dad or sis. Gail had the chops.
According to the Nick Tosches bio on Dean a few years ago , Dino heard Gail singing in her bedroom one day as he was passing by and poped in and told her you have a great voice. He along with some producers at Reprise set her up for some recording sessions and she also had several nightclub gigs in LA. before appearing on Dean's show.
I don‘t believe this. As a father he knew his daughters voice anyway. Why would he find out ‚by chance‘ that she is a good singer passing by her bedroom as if she were a stranger and he would hear her voice for the first time. This doesn‘t make any sense.
Deana wrote this in her book that Dean did go by Gails bedroom. You must remember the house was huge and he was on a very busy schedule most of his life. Maybe he just caught her singing at that time when he walked by. Deanas book is a good read.@@niriyama-xk5bx
I remembered that Dean Martin As Matt Helm, he's with Jerry Lewis, and he"s with John Wayne in Rio Bravo and the Sons of Katie Elder. He was with his daughter, Gail. She was beautiful. She sang a wonderful song with him. And she's the one on Dean Martin summer show.
Happy New Year and love and peace to all.Dino RIP and peace and joy to all your family and loved ones.Thank you for all the love and entertainment and laughs and your smile...What a talented family!!!!
What a great duet they made. Such a beautiful and talented family. Ricci and Deanna are good too but I just loved to hear Gail and Dino Jr. sing coz i find they had more of their dad's ways, expression and gifted talent.
everybodylovessomebodysometime I always thought that Dean Paul looked more like Jeannie, with the same blond hair. All the other kids had Deans darker hair.
Now she was *good.* Both her voice and her stage presence was just as good as her daddy's, and that's saying a lot. Add the dynamic of Dino doing a duet with his daughter, and this is real performing. What Sinatra said about Fred Astaire and Eleanor Powell dancing together counts here: "You know, you can wait around and hope. But you'll never see the likes of this ever again."
In answer to your question, Dinovilles, Gail actually DID follow in her dad's footsteps. Besides appearing on his show a number of times, she also released a handful of records, including a 45 RPM single of "What's Yesterday" that debuted several years before her father performed the song. And in her best showcase of all, she co-hosted (with Lou Rawls) the 1969 edition of "Dean Martin Presents The Golddiggers", the summer replacement for her Dad's series (Google: The Golddiggers Super Site).
The main reason why David Ruffin got dismissed from the Temptations was the fact that he wanted to see Gail perform at the Latin Casino in Cherry Hill New Jersey rather than perform with the Tempts that same night and that was the beginning of the end for David Ruffin!
I think that may be your own beholder of the images your seeing..and you may want to re-think these as it is nothing more than two talents performng for us..wow they sounded great together
The Tosches bio is a classic. I particularly enjoyed reading of Dino Crocetti's early years in Ohio where he played the illegal casinos and supper clubs which became precursor for Las Vegas. Unbelievable.
Wow,Dean Martin,He was old enough to be my father,but if l would of had the chance l would of snag him a minute.The funny thing is my dad had to be his twin on earth.they look exactly alike,they sang exactly alike,the funny part is my Dad didn't like him,and led tell him your exactly alike how can you not like him?
Pitch is a bitch, as they say. While others listen to inflection or 'stylistics' I listen to pitch and tune. And, as you note, she is way out of tune. Dino has a complex blend, or 'stylized' voice. In it you can hear pieces of Bing Crosby, Caruso and others he imitated. What Dino did was combine them all and then delivered the sound in a way people loved. Happy gumba. His girl, however, is singing in the style used to teach people to perform. She has two octaves: normal and real loud. Or screaming. She is all 'style'. Dino usually would sing on the low volume end of the scale, and here his girl buries the old man in loud, so much so you can't hear him unless you strain to do so. Which, however, is how they probably rehearsed her performance. She used to appear on his show to promote her gigs in Vegas or Palm Springs. Performing for the old people or gamblers.
Its a happy medium. Singing is about communicating a feeling. Good singers know how to do this. If a singer has perfect pitch in every way but zero feeling or delivery, the performance can be just as bad. Many many operatic singers are just this- they make pear shaped vowels and hit every note perfectly, but its boring. I think you need both, to be honest. A few technical flaws can be forgiven. Many talented singers were flawed technically but had great delivery and were on pitch. I also think Dean Martin sounded like Dean, and nobody else.
He’s in his fifties for sure,and in one decade he’s gonna look and walk like a very old man from declining health from the loss of his son, a broken heart did wonders fircne, from a very pretty girl lookingvatleastcten years younger then my age I looked years older from grief, had a stroke and now my body has broken down and I feel so close to the end, don’t mistreat a grieving person, aging , or poor health, it hurts so bad, I’m an very helpless aftercmyvstrokecandci feel likecdeadcwieghtvsndctrystvme, I get treated that way also, my grown sins have destroyed me, broke my heart and since I can’t finish getting my drivers licence backbduectobdustance, they won’t help and it would chsnge my life, I’m readyvro die from a broken heart, they don’t understand, I’m hurting and they only drag me around for slnistceverybornnyvi have,
