New Music From Frankie
David sent me a link to a wonderful interview in the Wall Street Journal with Frank Sinatra, Jr.
Nat Hentoff conducted the interview. Fantastic! I don’t think most people have any idea what an incredible talent he is. Even though he’s recorded new music in recent years, he always uses the same process they used in the 50s and 60s. No overdubbing. It’s recorded as a single performance with the full orchestra in the room all playing at the same time.
So these guys really have to know what they’re doing. It’s nice to see him finally getting some respect after all these years.
