#146 - Robert Davi

Robert Davi is a singer-extraordinaire. This interview was taped back in 2014 and broadcast on the radio and was published in La Revista, a bilingual international magazine. The interview focused in part on his 2011 debut studio album "Davi Sings Sinatra: On the Road to Romance" produced by the legendary Phil Ramone. Of course many know him for the versatile actor that he is, but in my heart and mind I think of him as a singer first. However, Robert Davi is a man of many interests. His columns on political subjects and current events have appeared in online and print news publications. He's not afraid to share his point of view. He's also shared his commentary on the AM and FM airwaves as a radio talk show host. Everone thinks of a different movie when they recall one of the more than 130 films he has starred in ranging from The Goonies, Die Hard, Predator 2, Licence to Kill and Showgirls just to name a few. He was also featured as a main character in the music video of Bob Dylan's take on "The Night We Called It a Day" a song made famous by Frank Sinatra.

Most recently, Robert Davi has been in the news because of the release of the documentary film Davi's Way. Directed by Tom Donahue, the film chronicles Davi's quest to honor and recreate Frank Sinatra's October 13, 1974 "Main Event" concert at Madison Square Garden. This interview with Robert Davi is being presented on the podcast as a good foundation for listeners of who the man himself is. Don't touch that dial, Robert Davi is next and it's only on The Paul Leslie Hour.
