Frank Sinatra - One For My Baby (and One More For The Road)

[@MattMauser1]

Great post! FYI the bartender is my grandfather... Pat Hawley. Wonderful to see him when he was young!

[@MKEhret]

How lucky you were. Your grandfather must have been great, and what a special memory.

[@alansargent6002]

+Matt Mauser Wow. Was your grandfather always a bartender?

[@allysonkho2017]

No special effects. Just a man and his music Pure gold

[@lakemichigan6598]

Sinatra was born with that voice but life taught him how to sing.

[@peterbellini6102]

You got that right....

[@bobgreen623]

Perfect!

[@MrCarltonjsmith]

What a brilliant thing to say...wow!

[@pamelalovejoy5341]

Yes it did.

[@meggiewillis9705]

He sure was born with a amazing singing voice.

[@globalspiritualrevolutionmedia]

I love it when Sinatra walks out into the night with the orchestra music closing out the program - Absolutely Beautiful.

[@robjones2408]

Nobody wore a hat better than Frank. What makes him such a compelling vocalist, is his brilliant ability to act out the lyric in a song. In that matter, he still remains unbeatable. Even after six decades, FS's treatment of this song has never been surpassed.

[@robjones2408]

The reason Frank remains such an iconic figure, was his ability to "act" the lyrics through his songs. That's why he has stood the test of time, whilst other male vocalists from the same period have vanished into obscurity. Wonderful footage.

[@zyxmyk]

yes!

[@Andrea-kx6dc]

He wasn't acting. It was Ava.

[@murph3001]

Partly .don't forget the voice . He has that great instrument ------ his vocal sound ---- gods gift

[@jmrodas9]

Acting is a gift really, and Frank Sinatra had it, he not only sang but acted very well, I saw several films in which he acted. Regards.

[@rares_21]

This, and the rest is his great personality. And... the VOICE;)

[@julie.1081]

Frank could sing an entire movie in one song.

[@johnvoice815]

I'm so honoured and blessed to have breathed the same air as this God of entertainment.

It doesn’t get any cooler than this performance by Sinatra.

[@ThePlutarch44]

Sinatra's phrasing is impeccable.

[@scottgagel77]

+William MacKenzie You hit that right on the head. I've had so many musicians tell me this, that his phrasing, (as well as his whiskey and cigarette tone), sets him apart from other singers of ANY era. His phrasing is immaculate. My parents saw him in concert several times back in the late 40s and early 50s, but I never had that opportunity. By the time I was a young adult, my music inclinations were blues and rock, along with some jazz. And by the time I was discovering the magic that was Sinatra, he had grown into an old man, and didn't perform very often anymore. My huge loss.

[@RonMazasco]

Sinatra is the Rembrandt of song. Excuse my dutch accent

[@fergalhughes165]

It's like he takes the words and music but then makes it sound like he's talking to you .. or 'sing-talking' to you

[@meggiewillis9705]

He sounds like a God

[@nealsilver3772]

I’m a lifelong Sinatra fan and I gotta think this was his best song ever. Even beats MY WAY; at least in my book. And this old black and white video is pure genius. The late night dive, the bartender, the wardrobe on them both. The hat (of course), and trench coat as only Frank could sport. The body language and that face. Yep they threw away the mold. Oh, and one last thing. THE VOICE.

[@electrictroy2010]

@nealsilver3772 IT wasn’t his song originally. It was Fred Astaire (1943) .

[@albertseabra9226]

The Voice, the King of Cool. Time is zooming by, almost 05 in the morning, I've been following dozens of Sinatra's songs.

[@1061andy]

Nobody interprets a song like Sinatra - he was, is & always will be the best.

[@Nightrain76]

No entertainer has ever brought me such a high level of joy. I love Frank Sinatra.

[@richardwieder2354]

When I was just a little kid in the 50's my parents listened to this music so I did too, little did we know that this music would stay with me through out my life.

[@janhammer39]

Thanks Richard for tuning us in.

Amazing find! The bartender is my grandfather. Thanks for posting this! His name is Pat Hawley and was given his first acting part by Frank.

What a great find...im sure u are proud

[@EarnestineMarshall]

So authentic with swagger and class. We are missing artists like this today that can appreciate what music told a story.......E

[@WitchidWitchid]

This song is haunting, takes me back to another time long past and gone but not forgotten. Late after hours, melancholy, lonely, a little sad but also a sense of warmth and comfort comes forth.

[@C0RRUPT3R]

I understand you’re wording, and that’s for sure brother! I wonder why we find comfort in it.

[@andrewpeternavarrete1227]

[@BrianCarnevaleB26]

The smokes and the DRINK took years off his life. Rem when he played on national TV in the 80s. We knew the end was near then, my Mum was sad sitting there seeing him all bloated, old & tired.

[@1FrankFan]

Harold Arlen and Johnny Mercer...PERFECTION. I am proud to say I heard Frank sing this in person.

[@Rosey01222]

This video is an A-1 example of Sinatra’s singing artistry. His ability to present song lyrics as poetry set to music. That had an emotional connection for the listener that no other singer in his day could match.

[@JamesBrown-ij1px]

Classic. It doesn't get any better than this.

[@robertkitson1411]

[@alverstone14586]

Amazing! I was listening to 70's music and never gave a thought to Sinatra. That was my parent's music. Who listens to that. Then I got older and realized that he was brilliant. It's true. With age comes wisdom and I appreciate how good he was.

[@talister106]

One of my favorite, done with the skill and emotion of a master. Frank didn't just sing a song, he sang it to you. Thanks for leaving this treasure.

[@samhunt9308]

I'm a child of the 40;s and loved watching the Sinatra show on TV. Nothing was cooler than walking into a club and throwing your trench coat across your arm or over your shoulder. Rock and roll never offered us to copy that.

[@lonestarsevillian1633]

I’m a child of the very late sixties. Although I was mainly a country rocker, I never ceased to appreciate the elegance, beauty and class of the music created in the forties. I harbor no problem acknowledging that no rock n’ roller could match the coolness and serene musical display of Sinatra. Hats off to him and to the people that grew in the forties.

[@slownoman]

As good as it gets. Ever. Sorry Elvis. Frank's the top of the mountain.

[@wickedfiyero79]

I love this version. Sinatra plays it with such sincerity and realness, it's one of my staples when I sing but no-one can ever beat this!!

[@1905Robb]

This song found me at my lowest. Lying in a piss covered mattress in a crack den bed sit high on whatever substance I preferred at the time I switched the channel to find this man serenading me with this song. Frank Sinatra. I’ve been a fan ever since, he has always been with me through my recovery his voice is so universal and inspiring. In a way I believe Sinatra found me, not the other way round.

[@janhammer39]

Good luck in your battle to survive.

[@mattleemattlee123]

No one...NO ONE...but The Chairman could do this. Any doubt that Sinatra was not only THE consummate ballad/saloon singer, but one of the great actors of any generation. The pathos, the amazing amount of information just one gesture gets across is unparalleled. This clip and the "of all the gin joints" scene from Casablanca stand alone in evoking sorrow and heartbreak. Sinatra and Bogart. We won't see the likes of them again.

[@zyxmyk]

[@ginnycrooks6117]

This may just be my favorite KZbin video of all time. As others have said, he completely acts the song, he stays in the moment. No grandstanding like he did in the 60s and 70s, no long held notes, which he had the ability to do, but it wasn't called for in this song. He completely conveyed the heartbreak of someone who'd just ended a relationship. The combination of his beautiful voice, the way he used it completely appropriately, and then his facial and body movements makes this, IMO, the perfect performance of a song.

[@lovegracewisdom]

My favorite song he’s ever sung. I was listening to it on my Apple playlist and I came here to see if there was video….it’s even better.

This has got to be my favorite version of the tune. I first heard Kevin Mahogany with his Big band on it in ABC radio back in 2007 and fell in love with the tune, like many of Harlod Arlen's tunes. But Frank just with the piano gives a really intimate feel and puts on a hell of a performance. I also didn't really understand Billy Holiday until I heard her on this tune, there is something about this blues progression, particularly when it goes to the iim7b5 and VI7 and instead of going iim V7 it goes iim7 iiim7 IV V7sus I, it just feels earthy. Sinatra nailed the feel of this tune in this performance, LOVE IT!
