One of the most star-studded events ever to have taken place at the Royal Albert Hall was in April 1989, when three of the greatest icons of American popular music, Frank Sinatra, Liza Minnelli and Sammy Davis Jr., came together in Frank, Liza and Sammy: The Ultimate Event.
Running for five nights between 18-22 April, the unique musical extravaganza featured the trio individually singing their greatest hits accompanied by a 40-piece orchestra conducted by Frank Sinatra Jr. Each artist performed a 30-minute set – opening with Sammy Davis Jr., followed by Liza Minnelli and then Sinatra, after which all three united for a magnificent 30-minute medley including But The World Goes Round, Witchcraft and I’ve Got You Under My Skin.
Such was the demand for tickets that all five concerts sold-out before even being advertised and police had to erect crush barriers outside the Hall to hold back the crowds. The event attracted a number of famous faces to sit in the audience, including Sean Connery, Roger Moore, Michael Caine, Bob Hoskins, Shirley Bassey, the Pet Shop Boys and Matt Goss.
The show, which marked the start of the British leg of the tour, went to 27 cities around the world. Sadly, Sammy Davis Jr. was suffering from cancer at the time and died the following year.
