    Standing ovation to you bro. In addition to his obvious musical greatness, Sinatra was fiercely against racism. He used his immense clout to strong arm the Vegas casinos into allowing black performers, such as Sammy Davis jr. to take the stage. Having an open mind about past generations and their performers takes a special kind of person. You, sir, are a gentleman.

      Preach it, brother. Preach it. From the time he entered the entertainment world, as he became more aware of segregation and racism, he was genuinely offended by it, and spent the rest of his life using 100% of his influence to combat it. He lived his convictions.

    I'm 72 and this young man is 50 years my junior. Intrigued by a friend at SINATRA FAMILY "Forum" including it here -- I wouldn't otherwise ever have seen this -- and I felt such joy watching his facial expressions, especially moments around the four-minute mark. He's already alluded to his Grandpa mentioning the name Sinatra, and, as he is gradually overcome with finger-snapping joy -- his young body language tells us all we need to know. I enjoyed his observations about "lots of instruments" and, in line with that, his 'conducting' motions towards song's end. Appreciated too, that to his young ears, this summoned up a "boss man" in a penthouse, "putting this song on, and lying back in his recliner and drinking some wine." Yes, an unexpectedly precious moment in time when very different generations are brought together by Sinatra, Riddle and Porter. Thanks again, Bob for sharing.
    p.s. Forward to 3:00 mark, just to be precise, if you are pressed for time and as the directors say, need to cut to the chase.
    Thanks for your appreciation, TwinsTheNewTrend. Celebrated at Sinatra Family -- Forum -- sinatrafamily.com/forum/showthread.php/19118-Favorite-Frank-Sinatra-song-of-the-moment/page161

    "I've Got You Under My Skin" was composed by Cole Porter in 1936 and introduced that year in the Eleanor Powell musical film “Born to Dance,” and performed by Virginia Bruce. It was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Original Song that year. It became a signature song for Frank Sinatra. Sinatra first sang the song on his weekly radio show in 1946 as the second part of a medley with "Easy to Love,” and with a big band in an arrangement by Nelson Riddle, who said that his arrangement was inspired by Maurice Ravel’s Boléro. The slide trombone solo is by Milt Bernhart. Sinatra re-recorded "I've Got You Under My Skin" for the album “Sinatra's Sinatra” (1963), an album of re-recordings of his favorites. This time the trombone solo was by Dick Nash because Bernhart was unavailable. A live version of the song appears on the 1966 album Sinatra at the Sands with Count Basie and his orchestra. (edited from Wikipedia) I love watching a child of the 2000s react favorably to a recording this old, to a song even older, and to one I recall having first heard in about 1949.

    I think the world should be shown any of these kids videos to save humanity. We’ve tried everything else. These twins cross every age, race, sexual orientation, religious affiliation
    . I have seen comments from Germany, Italy, and Africa. What if the twins could be the the one thing that REMINDS us that MUSIC is the only thing that worlds needs to bring us back together. When you are in the Middle East, when it’s time for prayer, They blast the cry from very loud speakers throughout the land.
    What if we blasted the Beatles “She loves You”. Then in Vegas Speakers from every rooftops blasted Sinatra “Luck be a Lady Tonight”. Music changes the mood of any situation, that is proven. Although it does seem a bit Orwellian.

    That song was recorded in one take by highly trained musicians sight reading a brand new score just written by Nelson Riddle. This is the music I grew up with and now play regularly as a professional drummer. I also sing it as a hobby with bands. It’s not produced by one guy on a laptop. The trombone solo in the shout chorus was made up there and then around the chord structure. Now listen to entire albums. In The Wee Small Hours album will knock you in your arse. Have fun learning musical heritage.

    • @SonicWizKid_Kates
      @SonicWizKid_Kates 4 ปีที่แล้ว +13

      In The Wee Small Hours is a gut punch of an album. It was recorded at the peak of Sinatra's depression over his rocky relationship with Ava Gardner. Nelson Riddle had his own battles with depression, so slick and polished an LP as it is, all the emotion you hear is true, from the heart. There's a great book about Nelson Riddle called September in the Rain, that I highly recommend.

    • @GreedyLittleFokker
      @GreedyLittleFokker 4 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Yeah, Riddle finished the score in the limo on the way to the session. The trombone solo was intentionally written IN A DIFFERENT KEY. The final version is in fact a full (unspliced, unedited) take, but it wasn't the first take. After the first run-through, the orchestra gave Riddle a standing ovation.
      FS, Riddle, and the orchestra did take after take after take, and trombonist Milt Bernhart was running out of energy. Frank begged him for One...More...Take... and that's the one that's been recognized as one of the greatest recordings ever made.

    In the days before electronically amplified instruments they had to have a lot of instruments to get a big sound. This is from 1953, before rock and roll took off. By the 1960s, amplification allowed a small group of musicians to fill a space with sound using electric guitars, keyboards and drums.

    I'm glad you like this! It's from a very different time, but it speaks to us all still. I was very lucky to get to see Frank Sinatra live at the Hollywood Bowl. He put on an amazing show! His opening act was the great Sarah Vaughn, someone you would probably like, too, if you haven't heard her. It was a great night!

    "They used a lot of instruments back then." I think that's part of why you are emotional about it! There's a person actually creating each of those sounds, each little part of it all, and you're surrounded by all those different, HUMAN-GENERATED sounds. So much of that is lacking in too much of music in the last twenty years or so: computer-aided, computer corrected, etc.
    And the language of love, before everybody thought it was "bold" to talk instead about carnal, self-absorbed use of someone for whatever you can get out of them....well, when you take a different attitude, you get a different feel.
    Perhaps that's too much thinking for a reaction page! LOL. But watching people younger than myself hearing the songs I once listened to for the first time, and remembering myself when I heard it for the first time, gives a great deal of fond nostalgia.
    And the music we listen to forms the "soundtrack" of our lives; getting to know more of your Grandpa's "soundtrack" also helps you "get" Grandpa better too.
    It's all good.
    Thanks.

    That version of "I've Got You Under My Skin" was recorded in 1965 for Reprise and first appeared on the album Sinatra's Sinatra. The original hit version was recorded in 1956 for Capitol Records and appeared on "Songs For Swingin' Lovers."

    Watched this for the 1st time in May. Came back to watch it again because I love so many Frank Sinatra songs! I had my children listen to a variety of music. My son is now 37 years old, but when he was 6 one of my sisters asked him 'What's your favorite song?' He thought about it for a few seconds and then said, 'I guess my favorite is I've Got You Under My Skin by Frank Sinatra. My heart swelled with joy!!! When the song is good-it's good!!!

  • @johnandrews3151

    So glad to see you react to the true classics! Before Sinatra, people bought single records and albums were made up of several single records per album. Frank was the first recording artist to release his album on a 12 inch long play record which, up to that time, was only done by classical music artists and opera. After that, all the pop artists wanted to do it. Love And Marriage, Fly Me To The Moon and Witchcraft are other hits by Sinatra. Very cool! By the way, there were also some great female artists of the time. Doris Day did a song with the Andre Previn Trio called Close Your Eyes. It is one of the best jazz tracks ever recorded.

There was always a first time that we heard a song, and to share in his discovery is just downright warm and enjoyable. The beauty of music is it is timeless and has no boundaries. It is the great equalizer. I subscribed immediately! And since you are listening to classics, listen to Etta James "At Last". It will bring goosebumps and more appreciation as you go through this epic journey of the art of music. Thank you for bringing your joy to our world!

    This pleases me. So when this recording was made, at the end of the song, the orchestra jumped to their feet and gave a standing ovation. Although Sinatra deserved one for this performance, the ovation was for the arranger and conductor: Nelson Riddle. Riddle and Billy May and Neal Hefti and Gordon Jenkins--these are some of the arrangers and composers that paired with Sinatra to make him arguably the most important American entertainer of the 20th century. I first noticed Sinatra when I was 13, in the 1980s--I mean you could hear him lots of places, but I wasn't paying attention--and this was the first song I noticed. My favorite singer ever since, and a way that I could connect with the older generations around me and know them better.
