The reason for this was because Sinatra wanted his music to be taken more seriously and seen more as a collection of songs instead of just catchy individual songs put together. In some ways this is like a worst-case scenario of what could happen if we gave in to many of the little thoughts and irritations we all regularly experience. This was an interesting book, a look at a suburban marriage which seems to be imploding, both because of misunderstandings and actual misdeeds, but neither person wants to verbalize what is bothering them.

He and his first wife, Nancy Barbato, separated on Valentine's Day Those discs -- along with an Academy Award for the film From Here to Eternity -- had also marked an overall change for Sinatra, getting his career back on track in a direction no longer aimed at the teenagers of a decade or so before. For tracks six through twelve , the waveforms, along with the actual sound characteristics, seem to once again imply that each comes from a similar source tape. It is also considered by many to be one of the best vocal jazz releases of all time. Thanks to Ian Bradley for physically mailing this LP to me, thus making it available for use on this website. After two tracks that seemed to mirror each other on both discs, now we have an apparent parting of ways, at least where dynamics are concerned. After literally hundreds of listens, it still comes across as fresh, vibrant, and heartfelt. The man, himself, somehow draws everything out of you, and he has the same effect on the boys in the band. The album was a commercial success, reaching number 2 on the Billboard album chart, where it stayed for 18 weeks, becoming Sinatra's highest charting album since Songs by Sinatra in Neither knows that the other is on the verge of getting fired.

Voyle Gilmore Producer. Thanks for making this available! Tom and Helen. What he has held close will change his wife and daughters, he is at a turning point that could risk devastation but is there hope? I knew that I was going to love this book. This Is Sinatra! My thoughts after reading this book Later pressings are true mono from dry tapes. Read more Meanwhile, Helen is a graphic designer, but as her work was disappearing, her boss suggested she could freelance for him from home — the new home, that is. They have come into some financial difficulties and have been less than honest and upfront with each other so things start to unravel.

And while they've seen some of what's on the horizon, most will catch them totally unprepared. Or more realistically like to read about regular people who, in the course of trying to make their lives better, seem to find themselves moving in the wrong direction on life's escalator. Although the arrangements were Riddle's, there was no need for a conductor, so pianist Bill Miller managed from his instrument. Jule Styne and Sammy Cahn.

Ashley Poston made her name with Once Upon a Con, a contemporary series set in the world of fandom, and her two-part space opera, Heart of The reason for this was because Sinatra wanted his music to be taken more seriously and seen more as a collection of songs instead of just catchy individual songs put together. We can gather that this is not going to be the case. This book shows how relatively minor choices and decisions can snowball until things seem unbearable and overwhelming. I loved this book.

Her body was covered in a sickening sweat. Sinatra intended the album to be his first inch LP, [41] but it was initially released as a two-volume set, each set containing eight songs, as a set of 2 ten-inch LPs Capitol H PT1 and PT2 and as a set of 2 45rpm EP sets, each of 2 discs. Jennifer Kitses. The New Yorker. Helen has an anger problem and while she is walking her daughters in their stroller, she has words with two teenaged girls who are not the kind of people one wants to mess with unless they're ready for retaliation. Sinatra's wounded vocal stylings are only half of the equation of what makes this a great album, as the spare yet intricate arrangements of Nelson Riddle serve well to up the isolation ante. Almost as painful to watch despite the gorgeous sunset. Despite considerable influence in getting him a part in From Here to Eternity , Gardner left Sinatra two months after the release of the film, divorcing in The kickoff to what's sure to be a great career.

  • Pioneers of the Concept Album
    Fancy Meeting You Here: Pioneers of the Concept Album Todd Decker Abstract: The introduction of the long-playing record in 1948 was the most aesthetically signi½cant tech- nological change in the century of the recorded music disc. The new format challenged record producers and recording artists of the 1950s to group sets of songs into marketable wholes and led to a ½rst generation of concept albums that predate more celebrated examples by rock bands from the 1960s. Two strategies used to unify concept albums in the 1950s stand out. The ½rst brought together performers unlikely to col- laborate in the world of live music making. The second strategy featured well-known singers in song- writer- or performer-centered albums of songs from the 1920s, 1930s, and 1940s recorded in contemporary musical styles. Recording artists discussed include Fred Astaire, Ella Fitzgerald, and Rosemary Clooney, among others. After setting the speed dial to 33 1/3, many Amer- icans christened their multiple-speed phonographs with the original cast album of Rodgers and Hammer - stein’s South Paci½c (1949) in the new long-playing record (lp) format. The South Paci½c cast album begins in dramatic fashion with the jagged leaps of the show tune “Bali Hai” arranged for the show’s large pit orchestra: suitable fanfare for the revolu- tion in popular music that followed the wide public adoption of the lp. Reportedly selling more than one million copies, the South Paci½c lp helped launch Columbia Records’ innovative new recorded music format, which, along with its longer playing TODD DECKER is an Associate time, also delivered better sound quality than the Professor of Musicology at Wash- 78s that had been the industry standard for the pre- ington University in St.

  • Frank's World
    Chris Rojek / Frank Sinatra Final Proof 9.7.2004 10:22pm page 7 one FRANK’S WORLD Frank Sinatra was a World War One baby, born in 1915.1 He became a popular music phenomenon during the Second World War. By his own account, audiences adopted and idol- ized him then not merely as an innovative and accomplished vocalist – his first popular sobriquet was ‘‘the Voice’’ – but also as an appealing symbolic surrogate for American troops fighting abroad. In the late 1940s his career suffered a precipitous de- cline. There were four reasons for this. First, the public perception of Sinatra as a family man devoted to his wife, Nancy, and their children, Nancy, Frank Jr and Tina, was tarnished by his high-octane affair with the film star Ava Gardner. The public face of callow charm and steadfast moral virtue that Sinatra and his publicist George Evans concocted during his elevation to celebrity was damaged by his admitted adultery. Sinatra’s reputation for possessing a violent temper – he punched the gossip columnist Lee Mortimer at Ciro’s night- club2 and took to throwing tantrums and hurling abuse at other reporters when the line of questioning took a turn he disap- proved of – became a public issue at this time. Second, servicemen were understandably resentful of Sina- tra’s celebrity status. They regarded it as having been easily achieved while they fought, and their comrades died, overseas. Some members of the media stirred the pot by insinuating that Sinatra pulled strings to avoid the draft. During the war, like most entertainers, Sinatra made a virtue of his patriotism in his stage act and music/film output.

  • Leonard Cohen JENNIFER WARNES by Bob Mersereau
    “Her voice is like the California weather. It’s infused with sunshine, but there’s an earthquake behind it.” — Leonard Cohen JENNIFER WARNES By Bob Mersereau Jennifer Warnes is an American singer and songwriter. She is best known for her rich distinctive voice, her interpretations of work by James Taylor, Leonard Cohen, and Buffy Sainte Marie, and for her association with the soundtracks of a number of popular films during the 1970s, ‘80s and ‘90s. Her biggest hits were “Up Where We Belong” (a duet with Joe Cocker, from the 1983 film An Officer and a Gentleman), which won the duo a Grammy, a Golden Globe, and took the Oscar for Best Original e Song. Then another duet, this time with Righteous Brothers Bill Medley, also topped the charts with ’(I've Had) The Time Of My Life’ from Dirty Dancing, which won an Oscar, a Grammy, and a Golden Globe. That was the third Oscar-winning song Warnes had sung in her career, following 1979's ‘It Goes Like It Goes’ from Norma Rae. Those three wins tie her with Frank Sinatra, and only one behind the great Bing Crosby for having more Oscar-winning songs. 1 “If it took Warnes a long time to commit to making an album again, the clarity and confidence of her performances on “Another Time, Another Place” validate her decision with style and grace.” — Associated Press It can be overwhelming, all the negativity coming at us. There's the constant flood of bad news, social media chatter, and the seemingly daily doses of disappointment.

  • He Sang One for the Ages
    MASTERPIECE He Sang One for the Ages Frank Sinatra recorded the definitive version of the sorrowful saloon song ‘One for My Baby (and One More for the Road)’ in 1958. By John Edward Hasse Published originally in The Wall Street Journal, Nov. 2, 2019 One of the premier popular music recordings resulted in no small part from the failed romances of two musical figures: lyricist Johnny Mercer and singer Frank Sinatra. Both also loved their liquor, this song’s sub-theme. It’s quarter to three, There’s no one in the place except you and me, So, set ’em up, Joe... One for My Baby (and One More for the Road) was written by Mercer and composer Harold Arlen. From dissimilar backgrounds, they shared a deep devotion to jazz and blues, and became each other’s best-matched collaborator. Mercer boasted a remarkable grasp of American vernacular language. He was something of a musical polymath—lyricist, singer, record company executive (co-founder of Capitol Records) and talent scout. He was also unhappily married while in love with Johnny Mercer young Judy Garland, who became a muse for some of his most resplendent lyrics—I Remember You and Skylark. When she broke off the relationship, he was devastated and evidently channeled his grief into One for My Baby, written for a largely forgotten 1943 film, The Sky’s the Limit. Arlen wrote the music first—with a winding chromatic melody, a change of key, and an uncommon length of 58 bars instead of the usual 32. Mercer fit his lyrics to the tune impeccably, creating a dramatic monologue that’s a masterpiece of urban loneliness and loss.
