HAPPY BIRTHDAY, FRANKIE!

It's Frank Sinatra's birthday!

Back in the day, my mother would cut high school and head out to see Sinatra's live performances, swooning in the audience along with thousands of other teens. She passed her love of Frankie on to me and it's never abated. 

This is one of my all-time favorite Sinatra tracks, performed live with Count Basie and his orchestra.
