FULLY REVISED AND UPDATED 'I sang some songs, acted here and there, but no way would I call myself exceptional. I just hope I did my best for my audiences.' A somewhat self-deprecating comment from Dean Martin on his own career. It was this laid-back approach to his work, however, that belied a hard-working, dedicated and professional entertainer. From humble beginnings as the son of an Italian immigrant, Dean reached the peak of his career with his award-winning, ratings-busting weekly variety show for NBC. As well as counting Frank Sinatra amongst his closest friends and a tempestuous 10-year partnership with Jerry Lewis, Dean recorded countless hit singles, sold millions of award-winning records and starred in a string of hit movies. Award-winner* Bernard H Thorpe first got to know Dean in 1960. Together they formed what would become The Dean Martin Association, the first and only authorized, independent world society for Dean. Approved in 1995 by the man himself, Dean Martin Recollections is a unique re-telling of the life and vocation of a legendary celebrity who scaled the heights of Hollywood to attain world-wide fame, and the story of how an unassuming family man from the British media industry became a dedicated ambassador and friend. 'An insightful look into the life of a legend, written by a life-long friend.' - Yours Retro magazine *recipient of the ARSC Award for Excellence in Historical Recorded Sound Research: 2023 - Best Discography in Research in Rock or Popular Music, in recognition of "exceptional achievement and significant contribution to the advancement of knowledge of the history of recorded sound" [Dean Martin - A Discography]
