Frank Sinatra - In the Wee Small Hours
Manage episode 312402778 series 3234218
[JON's PICK] Frank Sinatra is an artist that is very much embedded in the fabric of American Pop music. From his various roles in movies to his iconic crooning voice, Sinatra has made himself into a household name. But his career wasn't without its woes. After the initial Sinatra-mania that occurred during World War II, there was a gradual slump that he fell into for 6 years before making his big comeback with 1953's film "From Here to Eternity." The next few years showed a marked increase in his success, and in 1956, he decided to make what is thought to be the first recorded concept album with "In the Wee Small Hours." With it's melancholy mood and songs of longing, this album really showcases Frank's immense range and compositions that just aren't made anymore the same way. So please, sit back, sip a martini, and let Frank calm your nerves. Joined by Brad LeBaron, Dave Gallagher, Jon Acker, & Scott Westley.
