It’s possible that I shall make an ass of myself. But in that case one can always get out of it with a little dialectic. I have, of course, so worded my proposition as to be right either way (K.Marx, Letter to F.Engels on the Indian Mutiny)

Shaft
This is too funny I just heard it on CKUA Overnight...
John Shaft Listen
I thought it was Billy Crystal imitating Sammy Davis Jr. doing Issac Hayes; Shaft Theme.
Nope I was wrong.
It was the real Sammy Davis Jr. doing the Shaft Theme. Talk about high camp.
He isn't even singing he is reading the words, sort of like William Shatner does.
And it is on not just one album, nor two, but three!
The only way it could have been campier is if he had a Klezmer band in the background. Nope sorry then it would sound like Sammy imitating Billy.
