Eric Jordan Young Shakin Review 10/14/14 I went to this show expecting another Las Vegas retro old school review targeted toward older tourists. The showtime at 5:30 suggested a low energy show customary to other similar entertainment on the strip at that hour. I grew up in NYC and have seen countless shows on Broadway as well as Vegas, but I was shocked at what transpired (and I have seen it all in Las Vegas): A world class exhibition of showmanship by Mr. Young. His singing was rich, powerful and pitch perfect without going over the top (in a modest venue) as many performers do. His dancing was dazzling and equally great showing pedigree and the laser precision of a pro. Here in the self proclaimed Entertainment Capital of the World (try to disprove it) you will not find a more talented performer. Eric is a morph of Sammy Davis Jr. and Micheal Jackson combining old and new school with aplomb. His choice of music is superb and shifts seamlessly between classic and modern pop. The dancing certainly deserve praise as they attain the same high level of craft. I have seen lead dancer Claudia Mitria all over the strip playing curently in Pin Up. She also dances in the bursting with talent group BBRs punk rock opera “Alice” (a must see). Claudia is a special artist and you will have a hard time keeping your eyes away from her energy. For a show to attain this height, you must have a live band. Beware of cost cutting shows that pose. This band rocks and is a show unto themselves. Roll it all together and you have everything you could hope for without the distraction of neon clad spandex people twirling from the ceiling. yelp/review_share/gUUeagWUZBi36x617LiM2Q/review/cIgVCcMDFzqfVZroDacJ0g?fsid=aUZude5sPFOJv_kDe9ahUA
