It was an honor to record an album, “Live at the Copa.” The Supremes, Sam Cooke, The Temptations, Bobby Darin and Marvin Gaye, have all recorded very successful “Live at the Copa” Albums.
Dean Martin & Jerry Lewis, The Supremes, Rodney Dangerfield and Sam Cooke made their N.Y.C. Debut at the Copa. The Copacabana Chorus Girls, was a major attraction. They, wore sexy mink bras and panties, with fruited turbans on top. A Copa Show Calendar, would include all the previously named. + Tony Bennett, Peggy, Ella, Lena & The Four Tops. Every week, The Copa was # 1.
In 1973, when Jules Podell, the owner of the Copa died, so did The Copacabana. Never to be replaced. My Forever Treasures, is pleased to offer this vintage Copacabana N.Y.C. Ashtray. It probably, was on a Copa Table, when one of these incredible icons performed. = The Ultimate Nightclub Treasure.
Dean Martin & Jerry Lewis, became the most successful Comedy Team of All Time. Together in 1946, Martin & Lewis developed the perfect comedy combination. Dean, the classy crooner would sing. Jerry, was the busboy /clown, who constantly interrupted Dean. The audience, loved Jerry’s innocent slapstick. Their, great success was because, they were the First Comedy Team to have Fun Together. They enjoyed each other, and the audience couldn’t adore them more.
