In 1996 Frank Sinatra Jr., working with the same musicians and orchestra his father did, gives a little talk between each song he (Frank Jr.) sings throughout 30 years of Sinatra Sr.'s career. He tells us how he remembers it, sometimes being in the studio watching his dad work his magic along with that incredible orchestra. I could not tell that it was not Sinatra Sr. singing the first time I listened. I just laid back and listened and let it take me to the moon. There are 32 songs Frank Jr covers, and he does not sing the entire song. It's a hell of a tribute from son to father. Unfortunately Sinatra Sr died days before the album was finished. But this strong tribute album remains. My mother was a huge Sinatra Sr fan, and usually on Saturdays she'd play his albums on the stereo, where you couldn't go anywhere in the house without hearing them. I thought, 'Sinatra? He's not that good looking. His voice is mediocre. What does she see in him?' Frank Jr answered my question in a later interview. "It was the songs," he said. The songs he chose and the best orchestra he could find, which Frank Jr managed the last 20 years of his father's life. How I wish Frank Jr had made an album of his last tour, "Sinatra Sings Sinatra". I think he, in his own right, was pretty amazing.Read full review
