This takes me back as "Songs for Swingin' Lovers" was the very first Sinatra L.P. I ever bought and from then on I was hooked! I browsed the record shops for every Sinatra L.P. I could find and became a big fan. I never missed any of his films and attended most of his concerts here in the U.K. I have been very lucky to have attended many of his shows in Las Vegas.

RS 500: Part 4 (100 music items)

""Here is an album that means to deny the rock & roll that was then changing America - and succeeds. The songs were standards, most ten or twenty years old, and Sinatra and arranger Nelson Riddle were bent on jazzy, hip sophistication. "I've Got You Under My Skin" still stands as a Sinatra high point.""

"“So much for feeling blue. With Ava Gardner in the rearview mirror and lord knows who in the backseat, Sinatra had his strut back and wasted little time in applying it to jazzier versions of pop standards like "Pennies From Heaven," "I've Got You Under My Skin" and "Makin' Whopee," all of which have now become the standard interpretations.

I could find and became a big fan. I never missed any of his films and attended most of his concerts here in the U.K. I have been very lucky to have attended many of his shows in Las Vegas. One special evening was at the Aladdin Hotel when he was with Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr and Liza Minnelli all on the same bill. We had front row seats. Pure magic. The following night we were at his opening at Caesars Palace. I was also at the Oscars in 1975 when he was one of the M.C.s. (I still have the souvenir program today). I have visited his private office in Hollywood which was exciting and received signed photos and g” read more
