I was having a bad day and I stumbled across this show. I lived through that era and remembered all those songs and performers that brought me back to the singing, dancing, flirting that fed my waking hours. I'm in my mid eighties now but like George Burns said "We all get old but we don't have to get old.
Stumbled upon this by accident on Frank’s day of passing. Miss you Frank, and all those that have passed since that performed at this truly special event. Swing 4 every.
1990 I saw Sinatra for the only time in my life in Rockford, Illinois...it was great. I listened to him in the 1940's when a young kid, now at 80 I play him nearly every single day. Nobody ever sang such love songs as he did. Thanks for posting this. Very much!
I was very lucky; I got to hang out with (whomever showed up) the Rat Pack, at Bings' place in Burlingame CA. My Dad used to hang out with them, & he was a stunt actor for Frank, Cary Grant & Gary Cooper. I literally bumped heads with Pearl Bailey. (I was mortified!) I miss those days, going to one of those early concerts, meeting & hanging out with them. Listening to Big Bands. Dancing to the music. I hope they're all together in the big bandstand in the sky. Jamming. Just like I was there to hear & see knees) so long ago, in the Way Back machine.
A million-dollar honorarium for the greatest singer of all time, Francis Albert Sinatra! He earned all that glory for what he gave us for almost 60 years of his remarkable musical life, and is still giving us joy with his recordings and film work, which we can pull up and pretend that it's current! Thank you, FS, and RIP now.
So much talent in one room. Every performer and every musician, was just fabulous. The Big Band Era was a great period in American music. Younger artists need to keep this music alive. We can't just let this great art form slip away.
The passing of the Forties/Fifties/Sixties, in my opinion, was the best periods of Blues/Jazz/Swing etc, those moments during a dance, all dancers would stop at the bandstand just to watch the drummer, play his solo Only top glide off again when the whole orchestra kicked back in to finish the dance those, Ah, those were the days, sadly all of fifty years ago now, how we danced, kissed, & loved in doorways, only to run to catch the last bus home, Memories.

They were all there--all the great band singers singing their signature hits. It was '90 or '91. The last time we saw these big band greats together honoring the greatest band singer, Sinatra. It was very emotional for Frank.
Indeed, George! Music can make all the difference in one's mood, it has the power to make us dance, weep, be nostalgic but most of all, be grateful for the chance to be a part of it, whether in performing or just listening! Music is an important part of our soul!
So glad I grew up in those 2 decades 40s,,*&30s when evergreen music was born & evergreen vocalists did justice to the music. Those singers still make that golden period a time never to be forgotten
I feel like I just hit a gold mine! What a wonderful show and so many people that I have always adored and loved!!! Such a highlight for these past months of COVID!! Thank you Society of Singers!!
1:08:50 This is the sound of SWING !! A hot groove that nothing in today's pop music can understand let alone perform. A rhythm that imitates our natural walking cadence in a hot tempo, swing music is totally captivating and as natural as breathing. What a shame the world doesn't hear it much anymore.
Wow! Some night Ella - Peggy - Joe Williams - the list goes on a tribute to Frank amongst his own and never to be forgotten the singer in the band - we salute you all.
I first became aware of Heny Mancini from the song, Baby Elephant Walk" is a song Hank wrote in 1961 for the 1962 film Hatari! In 1963 , the song earned Mancini a Grammy Award for Best Instrumental Arrangement. The tune was written for an impromptu scene in Hatari! in which 'Dallas' ( Elsa Martinelli ) led three baby elephants to a waterhole to bathe! The next year, though, "Pink Panther" probably put him on the world map. I admired Mancini for years and still seek his orchestra numbers and arrangements, he was a superb talent and I was acutely aware of our immense loss when he passed away in 1994.
THIS MUST BE BEST CONCERT EVER PUT ON YOU TUBE.......THANK GOD WE HAVE YOU TUBE THAT PUT THIS OUT FOR US...........SIMPLY WORLD CLASS............I HAVE NO WORDS IN ENGLISH SINCE I'M FROM NORWAY, THIS IS PURE CLASS THAT LIVES NEXT 10000 YEARS!
I had the honor to go to this event - the tops in song - the atmosphere was electric - thanks for all the music Elle, , Francik sand Hank - you changed my life and in fact gave me life. Don
This was the best show I have watched. To bring back all the big band singers. My Dad (who passed suddenly in Oct 2020) was a Big Band Leader and played with many of the Big Bands and had his own 19 piece orchestra. He would have absolutely gone nuts over this show. His brother who is also a musician, (My Uncle) would love this show. Can't wait to show it to him. I saw many of the performers shown. What an amazing gather! Thank you for placing this on TH-cam where we can bring back that sound that will never die even it performers have. Thank you bunches! 🎼🎺🎶🎵
Thank you so much for posting this gem of a video. Thank you also for adding the names of all the singers, because although I love this type of music, I didn't kow all of them. You can see that the music lives within them and shines out of them. Music feeds the soul and creates happiness. And check out Wikipedia for all of these glorious singers and all lived to a grand old age. Some made it to 100. Fab Fab Fab.
Thanks for the great upload, Mr. Hoffman. This is the first time I've seen this nugget. What a wonderful find and fantastic treat. So many great talents on one stage.
Thank you so much for sharing that. There have been so many wonderful singers down the years who deserve to be much better remembered. This was a marvellous parade of so many of them. So pleased it is preserved on tape for posterity.
THANK YOU FROM THE VERY BOTTOM OF MY HEART... THIS IS GREAT AND REMINDS ME OF BETTER TIMES WITH MY FAMILY..I AM 47 AND LOVE THIS SO MUCH,,,,BLESS YOU...
Always been a fan of Frank ever since my parents listened to his music at 56 years old now and I am from Edinburgh and these singers were fantastic especially the dark skinned man what a voice he reminds me of muddy waters .Frank had such a humble begining poor but that's how u become a star .start from nothing to the top I've always thought emerican jazz is the best
This is amazing the best show I have ever seen. ❤ I feel sad for all the people that won't watch this..wow what singers what performers what class and style.
Yes, you are absolutely right. There arent any singers any more, let alone class or style. Baby Boomersand before, were very lucky indeed to have witnessed these people!
Wow how amazing to see everyone so happy! I’m so happy to Frank so honored & that audience OMG who’s who of my favorites! Thanks for sharing this gem. Forever a fan of the old days and all these people remembering there youth bring tears of joy. 🥳🤩✝️☮️ Music is the best antidote for a quarantine. Frank blowing kisses Amen.
A nice and moving tribute to probably the greatest singer ever, for most of my life he WAS "The Voice" and though he's gone now, people are STILL enjoying his music and probably will into the next century! I have other favorites also, but none who gave us over a half a century and more, of inimitable, unforgettable artistry and music, which came into our hearts and stayed there!
Never seen this incredible recording - I would love to know more about what we are watching here. 1990? Ella was stunning as ever but Miss Peggy Lee, singing a very personal and conversational tribute to her friend, was exceptional and a wonderful surprise. Thank you
Thank you so much for posting this. Can't think of a better memory for my Mom on Mother's Day. My mom and dad grew up in the big band era. Still have found memories of their stories. I remember listening to music of the big band era when I was a kid, playing along with Benny Goodman on my clarinet. And Francis Albert, the greatest.
What a brilliant show! Some of the giants of the big band era. Music I grew up with and surround myself with. Sadly a thing of the past. Replaced by a cacophony of noise. Thank you for posting.
What a lovely presentation, thank you very much, we'll be back to hear The Voice of the 20th Century, the incomparable Frank Sinatra, whose popularity may go on to be one of the biggest and best of the 21st Century, who knows! And Ella, and others who are presented here, will never be forgotten! Many of those in the above video are gone now, but their legacy in music and the performing arts will remain forever! I'm so glad they included 2 of the 7 songs that Frank wrote "This love of mine" and "I'm a fool to want you." Thank you for the opportunity to see and hear them again in this video! We'll be back!
When watching that duet with Frank and Ella I must have been smiling throughout without knowing it, because at the end when I realised I was smiling, my face hurt when I started to stop. That’s when you know you’ve truly seen something wonderful....your jowls hurt.
I've watched with such happiness this procession of all these iconic artists ....legendary entairtainers , the coolest talented army and in the flow I've spotted ( 3 times ) Barry MANILOW who would have deserved the stage considering he is the MAN to sing SINATRA's repertoire . His CD tribute " OL' blue eyes " is a must !!!
This Video is a piece of GOLD. BAND SINGERS THAT I HAD NO IDEA WERE STILL ALIVE IN 1990 It moves right along . If you Love 💕 music you won’t be bored. Henry Mancini is the Bandleader. Chris ♥️🎶🥀🎶♥️🥰😍😘🤗🎼🎶♥️😎
Beautiful memories, and a few sad moments when l hear this beautiful man who gave so much to so many. . I only saw him twice , it was never enough. 😪🎶🎶🎶🎶🙏🙏🙏🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🥰💐💐💐
I've probably either been to in person or via tv, Utube, A/C and a few others venues, but....this was the very, very complete and total performance by ALL. EVERY SINGLE GUEST , who were all of Franks real friends. They sang with emotion as I've never before. This is Franks kind show...all the way. Much thanks. I've been a Sinatra fan for about 68-70 years.
I'm surprised no one here had mentioned how great Kay Starr was, she totally jazzed up "What a Difference a Day Makes". Her voice certainly got better with age, you can see Frank was really enjoying it.
You are correct, I guess they broke the mold at the end of this era, because you sure don't hear comparable music today. A few try, but I doubt if we'll have the myriad of talented performers that they had back in those times. We're so glad so many of them made recordings that we can pull up and that makes them live on in our hearts and minds!
Yes, Dusty was unique her emotional tones produced in the Memphis album was probably the best piece of work by a UK artist. RIP Ms.Springfield and thank you for leaving us with superlative vocal memories.
I loved it..it was sad seeing Frank sitting and watching… I know toward the end of his life he just couldn’t sing that well, but we had so many fabulous years watching him with that incredible voice…. I can’t believe he’s been got for over 20 years… the world isn’t the same without him n the rest of the rat pack… may they all Rest In Peace🙏💋❤️
What a wonderful surprise to come across this special video honouring Frank Sinatra and all the great singers/performers and songs of the past. Peggy Lee singing "The Man I Love" was fantastic, touching, wonderful!..... Thank you for posting this.

THE BEST OF THE BEST!!! The Greatest Artists of our Generation! I sure do miss Frank Sinatra
So do I. I've been listening to him for about 56 years. I'm 68, but my husband says I was born an adult. LOL!
This was so cool. Some of the greats of this timeless era. Did you see Ella jamming like a musical windstorm, the power she wielded wow!
I was very lucky; I got to hang out with (whomever showed up) the Rat Pack, at Bings' place in Burlingame CA.
My Dad used to hang out with them, & he was a stunt actor for Frank, Cary Grant & Gary Cooper.
I literally bumped heads with Pearl Bailey. (I was mortified!)
I miss those days, going to one of those early concerts, meeting & hanging out with them. Listening to Big Bands. Dancing to the music.
I hope they're all together in the big bandstand in the sky. Jamming. Just like I was there to hear & see knees) so long ago, in the Way Back machine.
This was Awesome. Thank you for posting. I’m 82yrs.and loved every minute of it. ♥️🎼🎶♥️🥰😎
Henry Mancini was one of our finest composer of film scores. Loved his music scores and still do! Have many of them!
The two greatest singers/performers who ever live, Ella and Frank.
The First Lady of Song and the Chairman of the Board. Never again will anybody be able to top these two in their prime.
Elvis is on line 1.

Great show....a long time ago...I miss all these singers...
Just listening to the band was worth the price of admission. Singers have no idea what real talent sounds like. Computers can't duplicate live music.
Amen.

"Singers have no idea what real talent sounds like." 😲 !!!

Sinatra is the greatest. 🌹🌹 And Ella was extraordinary too.
Class, style, a little mystery, a whole lot of talent and bundles of charisma.
Ella made me so happy....and the look on Frank's face seeing her after all these years was impeccable.

I'm so glad they included 2 of the 7 songs that Frank wrote "This love of mine" and "I'm a fool to want you." Thank you for the opportunity to see and hear them again in this video! We'll be back!
So many talented voices!!
WOW! Marvelous, simply marvelous…Thanks Al for posting such a wonderful program of musical history....
Howhigh is up
How high
Are the pyramids
When watching that duet with Frank and Ella I must have been smiling throughout without knowing it, because at the end when I realised I was smiling, my face hurt when I started to stop. That’s when you know you’ve truly seen something wonderful....your jowls hurt.
Me too!!
Me three! Nothing better than this. ♥️🎼🎶♥️🥰
If you ever catch me smiling for more than a few seconds, it means I've got gas.
Marvellous. Pure Joy. That`s how I feel always listening this great musicians. Thank you very much for sharing
THIS BAND IS AWESOME... LIVE REAL musicians with Ella WOW. Thanks Al Hoffman
Fantastic show. The best I have ever seen. Thank you for posting.
I've watched with such happiness this procession of all these iconic artists
....legendary entairtainers , the coolest talented army and in the flow I've spotted ( 3 times ) Barry MANILOW who would have deserved the stage
considering he is the MAN to sing SINATRA's repertoire . His CD tribute
" OL' blue eyes " is a must !!!
I totally agree!! Barry should have had the stage also.
This Video is a piece of GOLD. BAND SINGERS THAT I HAD NO IDEA WERE STILL ALIVE IN 1990 It moves right along . If you Love 💕 music you won’t be bored. Henry Mancini is the Bandleader. Chris ♥️🎶🥀🎶♥️🥰😍😘🤗🎼🎶♥️😎
Wonderful recording - a lot of fun. So good to see Ella and Frank from 12.40 for 4 minutes of fun 🤩. Thanks for keeping quality memories online.
One word. FANTASTIC!!!
Beautiful memories, and a few sad moments when l hear this beautiful man who gave so much to so many. . I only saw him twice , it was never enough. 😪🎶🎶🎶🎶🙏🙏🙏🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🥰💐💐💐
I love Sinatra because, I grew up hearing parents play his music./
I've probably either been to in person or via tv, Utube, A/C and a few others venues, but....this was the very, very complete and total performance by ALL.
EVERY SINGLE GUEST , who were all of Franks real friends. They sang with emotion as I've never before. This is Franks kind show...all the way.
Much thanks. I've been a Sinatra fan for about 68-70 years.
Brilliant Wonderful, Fantastic Awesome ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I'm surprised no one here had mentioned how great Kay Starr was, she totally jazzed up "What a Difference a Day Makes". Her voice certainly got better with age, you can see Frank was really enjoying it.
they don't make singers like this anymore! just great!!!
thats right
You are correct, I guess they broke the mold at the end of this era, because you sure don't hear comparable music today. A few try, but I doubt if we'll have the myriad of talented performers that they had back in those times. We're so glad so many of them made recordings that we can pull up and that makes them live on in our hearts and minds!
Yes, Dusty was unique her emotional tones produced in the Memphis album was probably the best piece of work by a UK artist. RIP Ms.Springfield and thank you for leaving us with superlative vocal memories.
Fantastic, great, music I love and loved......
Fantastic presentation for “Old Blue Eyes”❤🥰♥️🥰♥️1991♥️
This is just awesome! The greats will never be replaced! Thank you!
Oh how I miss this standard of entertainment Mr Blue Eyes you were indeed Chairman of the Board xx
I feel like I've won a million bucks just finding this .I'm a die heart fan of Frank Sinatra 💜 and ive seen him beaming with joy and pride in here❤️
Yes, he looked like he really enjoyed this tribute, unlike his 80th birthday one.
I loved it..it was sad seeing Frank sitting and watching… I know toward the end of his life he just couldn’t sing that well, but we had so many fabulous years watching him with that incredible voice…. I can’t believe he’s been got for over 20 years… the world isn’t the same without him n the rest of the rat pack… may they all Rest In Peace🙏💋❤️
Excepcional show. Y la gran Fran Warren ... qué gran intérprete!!!
Wonderful program and a wonderful era long gone I wanna go back>>>>>> ...
I thought it was a gag when Harry Connick Jr stopped the band because he was nervous- but nope! Amazing
What a wonderful surprise to come across this special video honouring Frank Sinatra and all the great
singers/performers and songs of the past. Peggy Lee singing "The Man I Love" was fantastic, touching,
