Have you heard them do Impressions? Nobody can sing/act/dance/make you laugh like they could. They were who the word "Performer" was coined for.

All someone would have to do is Sing one of their melodies to me and I would be a goner.

But more importantly, it is easy to forget how these guys broke a few barriers for African-American singers, often times refusing to play in venues where segregation was encouraged. To be in 'showbiz' and to actually stand for something (not something your PR person tells you to stand for), well that just shows the quality of these men, despite any other flaws.

Them be some cool cats.

Every child should be given the opportunity to read the magic that is Mr Dahl.
