two hours later...

now I want your opinion... am I wrong?

seven years is a long time and more knowledge... although my English is still pathetic

Well done, Jeannette! The work you did here supports everything I said, with one glaring exception. It would seem that they also were at Ciro's that same night. We KNOW they went to Crescendo that night to see Mel Torme. So perhaps, after his show, they all went to Ciro's together? That would mean they went from Jess Rand's house to Crescendo to see Mel, to Ciro's, and then Marilyn, Milton and Sammy went on to Mocambo. What other explanation could there be? Unless all of the newspaper and book reporting about that night were wrong about Mel Torme and he was actually performing at Ciro's instead of Crescendo that night. I'm guessing though they went to both places on the same night. The Crescendo was located at 8572 Sunset Blvd., and Ciro's was at 8433 Sunset...one block away. And Mocambo was at 8588 Sunset Blvd., next door to Crescendo! So it isn't that much of a stretch to think they were at all 3 on the same night. What do you think?

That's right. Now, we need pictures from Crescendo and pictures from Sammy's performance on January 11, 1955 at Ciro's! Will it ever end? (IMG:http://www.everlasting-star.net/boards/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes1.gif)

Good ones, Nellie! That middle one makes me think maybe Tony should set that drink down!

" On January 11 they climbed into the Cadillac, and rolled through the night air to Ciro's. Will was quiet, Sam Sr. fatherly. They'd done this hundreds of times, all through the years. But never like this- the air alive with anticipation and curiosity. When they opened the door to their dressing room, they saw flowers everywhere. They'd never seen so many flowers before, with so many sentimental notes attached.

Automobiles cruised up to the front of the nightclub and valet attendants rushed to open the doors. And there, in the lights, alighting from the car as if rising up from the night itself-flash upon flashupon flash- Marilyn Monroe. The flashes caught her jewelry, her smile, her cleavage. Marilyn was accompanied by Milton Greene, the LIFE photographer, and Amy, his wife.

Sammy was on stage for an hour, then twenty minutes more, then twenty minutes longer. Allan Grant, the Life photographer sent to cover the opening sanpped away, even turning his camera on the audience. "


Marilyn in jewelry ?

This one bigger ...

Eduardo, what you're asking is better to do it in this forum so that everyone can benefit from the research. I am also looking for the same information.
Eduardo, lo que me pides, es mejor hacerlo aquí, para que todos podamos aprovecharnos de las investigaciones. No obstante, yo también estoy buscando la misma información, porque las fechas están un poco liosas. Seguro que ronda 1954 y/o 1955.

From "Yes I can" by Sammy Davis, about his post-accident return at Ciro's
... ... So i'd asked Milton to bring her to the opening.When the dressing room cleared,he asked "You want to go back to my place and have a drink"?"Not on your Rolliflex, Milton, old buddy. I've had it with the Garbo bit. You and i are going to take Marilyn to the Mocambo,then it's a definite see-and-be-seen at the Crescendo"
