Few artists or performers have a career as diverse and as successful as Anthony Newley's. His film career started in 1944 as a young boy in "Henry V" and continued as a writer, director and actor through 1992. He first hit the stage in '56 and became a smash on Broadway in '63 & '65 with "Stop the World - I Want to Get Off" and "The Roar of The Greasepaint - The Smell of The Crowd". Beginning in '59, he charted seven top ten hits in the UK (two of them #1) and wrote dozens of others for other artists including "Goldfinger" for Shirley Bassey, "Feeling Good" for Nina Simone and of course "The Candy Man" & "What Kind of Fool Am I?", the international smash hits that became signature songs for Sammy Davis Jr. We caught up with Newley in 1994 after his first performance in Atlantic City since the 80s. It would be his last engagement in AC. This interview has not been seen since 1995.
