Don Most
from Celebrity Interviews Hosted by Neil Haley
Today on The Neil Haley Show, Neil "The Media Giant" Haley will interview Don Most. "I’m back with my first love," says Don. Before Most was an actor, he was a singer. Fans may fondly recall episodes of "Happy Days" that featured the now iconic characters playing for patrons at the popular hang out called "Al's.” Nowadays, Don's backed by a twelve-piece band on a national concert tours. Although his red hair is silver now, he has clearly retained his appeal, appearing before packed houses of multiple generations, performing standards like "Lady Is A Tramp," "I Can't Give you Anything But Love" and "It Had To Be You." A scan of his audiences show fans in their late 20's to blue-haired music aficionados. His enthusiasm and expertise is contagious, and it isn’t long before everyone is either tapping their toes, bobbing their heads and visibly swaying in time to the tunes. Most and his group salute standards and composers from almost every decade of the last century. In addition, Most excites the audience by sharing his knowledge of music through warm stylish deliveries and selections of swing, jazz and rock-and-roll. Most has acted on television and directed several movies, but clearly finds a special connection with music of the Swing Era. Shifting easily between vocal styles, Most pays homage to The Chairman of the Board, Dean Martin, and his idol Bobby Darin, while paying tribute to the path that brought him back to his musical roots.
