"FLY ME TO THE MOON" is required listening from Old Blue Eyes (aka Frank). Frank played the character Sky Masterson in the movie version of Guys & Dolls which is a well known Broadway musical. That song is part of that show. Pretty much every High School and Community Theater Company has done Guys & Dolls at some time.

Sinatra was near the peak of his powers when this was recorded. As such, he could afford the best in arrangers, orchestras, and musicians. Here it is Nelson Riddle, an absolute legend in the jazz and popular music business as an arranger and orchestrator. Sinatra would also even specify individual musicians that he wanted in the band. For example, Alvin Stoller on drums and the Candoli brothers in the trumpet section. Check out a sampling of Sinatra's earlier recordings, too. His recording of Poinicana from 1947, from his Columbia Records years, with the orchestra conducted by Axel Stordahl, for example, is a seldom-noticed gem of a recording from Sinatra's earlier years. As for Nancy Sinatra, check out her recording of "This Town," her best recording, in my opinion.

It’s Frank at his very best. It’s a whole show, start to finish, complete with two monologues by Frank, not to mention the Count Basie Orchestra conducted by Quincy Jones. It’s simply incredible, and you REALLY get a feel for whole Vegas lounge scene. And I love your shirt, Amber! It’s so great seeing someone in a Dead shirt jamming to Sinatra!

It's a play on the old phrase, "May Lady Luck smile on you." He's asking "Lady Luck" to act like a lady and stay by his side for the entire evening. If you like this type of Sinatra, there's a more obscure tune that you might really like: "Nice and Easy." Very cool tune. Enjoy!

In addition to all the crooners, songs, and comedy, I love the "time capsule" element of seeing Bing Crosby's meta-dialogue where he talks to Frank Sinatra like Frank and the Rat Pack are the young punks who are playing fast and loose with the style while Frank talks to Bing like Bing's the old school, old style guy out of touch with the kids. It's a fun reminder that, all older music and older styles - no matter how old-fashioned and quaint they might seem in any given "modern times" - were once "the crazy thing the kids are doing" that alarms older generations.

@beckygrant22582 жыл бұрын
No. Not true. Johnny Fontaine was played by Al Martinez. He was cast as a Frank Sinatra-type. The horse head incident did not happen in real life. It was a film based on Mario Puzo’s novel, The Godfather, which was a bestseller at the time. The horse head incident was in the book. The character in the book was based on an Italian singer who is connected to crime families, like Frank Sinatra kind of was. His family wasn’t directly connected, but he was from New Jersey and those clubs that he started in were often mob-owned…so he had some connections. When the mob created Las Vegas strip casinos, they had difficulty getting people to come out there. They hired Frank and gave him 10% ownership in one of the Casinos, asking him to get his friends to come out and perform at the casinos. And he did. He helped build Las Vegas.

Frank Sinatra wanted to play the part that Marlon Brando had in Guys and Dolls where he sung Luck Be A Lady. Listen to that version and you'll know how much the song was not great until Sinatra sang it later on with an orchestration based on his direction. They missed out on his singing it in the movie.

Old Blue Eyes he had many names people gave him I got to listen to a Mr. Sinatra at my grandparents house and loved it. I still listen to him today when I want to just relax.

Some of the best foxtrot dance music ever written. You guys should try it out at a ballroom dance studio near you. Will add another detention to the music

This song came from a movie that Frank was in called Guys and Dolls. A story about secret gambling in the city of New York. Frank was the organizer of the gambling. Marlon Brando played a big time gambler. GREAT MOVIE. I strongly recommend watching . Lady Luck is a term used for having good luck gambling

Frank Sinatra had an Academy nomination best supporting actor for "From Here to Eternity"; won best actor for "The Man With the Golden Arm" (among other awards/nominations). And he was in the movie "High Society", that had the Bing Crosby/Louis Armstrong song you reacted to.
