Synopsis
The Frank Sinatra Collection brings together some of Frank Sinatra s finest performances on teIevision and in concert. This release combines his first two hour-long teIevision specials from the mid-sixties.
A MAN AND HIS MUSIC First broadcast by NBC on November 24, 1965, A Man And His Music, timed to coincide with his 50th birthday, was Sinatra s first annual one-hour teIevision speciaI. Broadcast at a time when American television was in the process of switching to fuII time colour programming, it is cIear that television history was being made. Singing directIy to the camera, Frank Sinatra makes the viewer feeI as if he is telling his story directly to them.
A MAN AND HlS MUSIC PART II FolIowing the success of the 1965 programme, A Man And His Music Part ll was commissioned as the second annuaI teIevision special and broadcast on December 7, 1966. Sinatra is accompanied by his daughter Nancy who treats us to performances of Bang, Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down) and On Broadway . Frank aIso joins her on three duets where pIayfuI banter is captured between father and daughter including the magicaI Downtown . The spectacuIar cIimactic segment shows Sinatra flying through four of his hardest-swinging numbers in rapid succession. |
