Frank Sinatra – Best Of The Best
Let start of be saying I’m a weird person in some fashion. In some ways I’m an old soul and so other ways I hold my youth close to me and don’t want to let it go. I don’t do or want to do what many people in my age group (early 30′s) find the norm.
So with that out of the way I got Frank Sinatra’s best of the best over the weekend. Every year they seem to release a Sinatra greatest hits package but usually they bug me by leaving out a song or two I like. I believe one of them didn’t have My Way on it, seriously it’s like A flock of seagulls releasing a greatest hits package without I ran. This one has all the songs I wanted so I picked it up.
This is my point. If you are over 30 and don’t think Frank Sinatra is one of the greatest entertainers ever, something is wrong with you. I listen to this album on the way to work and I simply smile. Sinatra voice is a thing of magic, you can’t help but be in a good mood while listening to the man.
I swear one of the first things I would do if I had a time machine is go back to the Sands to see the rat pack play. Screw the future, what I want is to see Frank, Dean, Sammy, and the other two, (it could be Andrew Ridgeley for all I care very inside joke but it gave me a new blog post coming up) just tear up the room.
You know you are getting old when you say things like they don’t make em like that anymore but you know with Frank Sinatra there will never be another one close to him.
