Perfectly Frank

Hello, Meanderer. I just now stumbled upon your thread started in 2018, Perfectly Frank. My parents were huge Sinatra fans. I grew up listening to his music being played daily at home. I have very fond memories indeed. I took my Mom to see Sinatra at the Riviera Hotel/Casino in Las Vegas in 1991. It was a dinner show; I doubt they do dinner shows anymore. :sneaky: The orchestra was led by Frank Sinatra, Jr., and in the front row were his daughters, Nancy and Tina. Oh boy, I'll be spending hours going through every post, page by page, of your fabulous thread! Thank you!

"I was, in his words, “a dog; all you had to do was hang a pork chop out the window” and I’d chase it. I was invariably described by him as “fat, old and ugly.” He said I preferred Debbie Reynolds to Burt Reynolds. I thought the Debbie/Burt wisecrack was pretty funny. I did like pork chops. But I was hurt by “fat, old and ugly.” I knew Frank was seven years my senior, and I didn’t figure I was any older, heavier or uglier than he was. (Neither of us was in the raving-beauty class any longer.)" (READ MORE)
 
As Frank released his 1994 album "Duets II" as his last studio album, he decided to invite his own son Frank Jr to sing a duet with him on his hit "My Kind of Town", and here it is.... Frank Sinatra & Frank Sinatra Jr sings My Kind of Town.

 
From The Frank Sinatra Show with guest Nat King Cole. Frank and Nat duet on Exactly Like You accompanied by Nat and his trio. Recorded March 13, 1946. (Audio)
