The February of Frank: A Look Inside Ol' Blue Eyes Part 3
Continuing on with the "Inside Sinatra" series, today we get a glimpse into the recording sessions for the classic album, Moonlight Sinatra. This album was released in 1966 and was worked around the theme that every song on the album had something to do with the moon. There was "Moonlight Becomes You", "I Wished On The Moon", "Moon Love", "Reaching For The Moon" and so on and so forth. The title of the album is a play on Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata". The orchestra was led by the great Nelson Riddle. Here are those recording sessions from November 29 and 30 of 1965. Here is "Inside Moonlight". Enjoy!

Thanks for the facination with Sinatra.
I was fortunate to go to his Palm Springs home on the 10th anniversary of his death, as well as his gravesite last year with some visitors from Japan.
