Reviews for Frank Sinatra

Sinatras music will haunt me forever and I am a soloist and am inspired be his prescence on stage. He feared no one and gave everything he had in his style of singing. I was born in 1925 and grew up in his time. We both share two things in common We
share the same first name "Francis" and our ethnic background is of Italian descent.

i only dred
that i never seen him live in concert
i grew up in the 70's listening to him on the juke box
the summer wind came blowing in from across the sea
it lingered there
touch your hair
walk with me
Sinatra Forever

I remember hanging on the bandstand talking to Tommy Dorsey's band and Frank Sinatra. The Hall was open to teenagers every Saturday afternoon for dancing and listening and a "milk bar" They were very tolerant and cordial to high school dance bands. Many other of the big bands as well as Dorsey. This was in Los Angeles, CA...a very long time aga.

I can still remember the car radio offering up Sinatra's- "Hey Jealous Lover" in the mid-fifties. I liked that song. I liked Frank. I was, (of course), also familiar w/many of his great earlier hits. I had just become 12 years of age. Then came the 1955 Bill Haley & The Comets mega hit "Rock Around The Clock". Music would now take on a new (and permanent) direction. Elvis, Little Richard, The Platters, and yes, even Ricky Nelson (along w/many others) would take the airways into the era of Rock & Roll. I did, and still do, love Rock & Roll. I do, however, very much continue to enjoy Sinatra, Martin, Day, Page, Fitzgerald, and all the others, who gave us their VERY OWN "Sound of Music".
