Songs By Sinatra

Originally Broadcast on the CBS Radio Network on November 14th of 1945, this time we're listening to "Songs By Sinatra" - Frank Sinatra's Radio Show, with special guests The Andrews Sisters. The orchestra was conducted by Axel Stordahl, and the Pied Pipers were also on hand. Though the quality of the recording leaves something to be desired (not having been intended to survive past the initial broadcast), these old shows give us insight into the music and culture of one of the most amazing periods of American history. I'm including the original commercials for Old Gold cigarettes.

Songs:

• Night and Day (Opening Theme)
• That's For Me
• A Kiss Goodnight (?)
• We'll Be Together Again
• How Deep Is The Ocean
• Begin The Beguine
• Medley
• Put Your Dreams Away (Closing Theme)
